Welcome 2021

 



I hope everyone had a safe New Year's Eve!! 

Mine was a little odd...I couldn't sleep, so I made the dumb decision to take half of a Melatonin tablet at 2 am.  Well, I didn't regain consciousness until 3:00 this afternoon!!  During my unconscious state, I was dreaming about body snatchers...I hope that doesn't have a significance for 2021...I really think it was the last brain debris from 2020. 

So today marks the first day of a SAL (stitch along) that I'm doing with Modern Folk Embroidery.  He does these every year, but this is the first year I decided to join in.  It's released in 12 parts, one a month.


It's only done in two colors and I've decided to use my favorite DMC red #3777 and it's neighbor #3778 which is a pretty rose.  The fabric is called Fog...it's 28 ct. and I'll be stitching over one...which makes for small x's but I don't want this project to be huge.


Jim was cleaning out the garage this past week and he came across a box of old pictures.  I must have started a genealogy project then completely forgot about it.  I think I'll do a "Throwback Thursday" and show some of these photos. 

Here's the first one...it must have been Mother's Day in '74 because Laura only looks about two  years old.  This is all the women in the family...except Susan and Kristy...and also Katie because I don't think she was born yet.


Brad...thank you for the nice comment you left.  Here's my warrior Dredmama again...she has gotten an equipment upgrade.  Come and join us...we have to save the Shadowlands!!


Have a wonderful day my darlings...and I'll see you back here in a couple of days!

Oh my gosh. That is so cute to see my mom holding Laura. I hardly recognize Cindy and Linda in that photo. Great grandma Shield's glasses look so hip.

I'll think about joining you. I don't know if I'm ready for that kind of commitment yet! It would be fun if you could play WoW immersed in 3-d. Alas. Happy New Year Mary.
