It's Friday!

I am so glad that it is Friday! I am ready for a nice relaxing weekend. :) Who am I kidding with my 3 kids around there is no such thing as relaxing. LOL

I worked on ES again yesterday. I was hoping to get the bird back stitched but that small thing called life just keeps getting in the way.


I am not sure if I am going to stitch tonight. I bought the Feb. issue of Stoney Creek's Cross Stitch magazine and have a feeling I might be kitting some small projects up. :D
We are still waiting to hear from the doctors when Mac's CT scan is supposed to be done. They told me if I didn't hear from them by today to call them. I did and now I am waiting for them to call me back.
I received my Valentine's exchange this week from Nela...well sort of. Somewhere between here and Venezuela some crummy person developed sticky fingers! I was horrified! Not because I didn't receive anything but I was going to have to give the bad news to Nela. After I sent her an e-mail explaining what had happened she showed me what she did stitch for me. Oh my gosh! It is amazing!! Look here to see her exquisite stitching. I really can't put into words how beautiful it is...you just have to see for yourself.:)
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

ES is gets more beautiful by each stitch you put in. Absolutely gorgeous.

What a bummer. I know you and Nela are very disappointed.

That's every exchanger's worst nightmare. So sorry it happened to you guys, and such wonderful stitching was lost!

Kate said...

That is horrible! Absolutely horrible, I would be so upset if that happened to me. :(

Good luck with Mac, getting health services to give you a straight answer can be a real war.

That is terrible Dawn. I don't know how people can live with themselves doing things like that.

Wow, Nela did a really lovely job on the exchange piece. Too bad it didn't make it to you! :( I don't understand why this happens. It's like customs takes the piece or something. How sad.

I'm so sorry to what happened to the package Nela sent you...the piece Nela made for you looked so pretty but a bet the replacement would be even prettier!

Oh, that's terrible. What a shame!
