Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride! - Unknown

Sunday UFO Stitching

Well, I am trying very hard to sticking to working on a UFO project every week this year, which was one of the only stitching goals I set for myself. The UFO I am working on is Innocent Guardian from a Dimensions Gold kit and I actually made quite a bit of progress on it while sitting during the afternoon, watching some movies and just relaxing with the family. Becky is having another bout of asthma flaring up, I imagine the varying temperature changes has not helped in that regard. Maryland has been going from 60 degrees one day to a high in the upper 30's the next. Most every family I know seems to have one person sick at home.

My goals I am setting with this design is to complete 1000 stitches a month. Might not sound like a lot, but it is a number that I'm hoping I can obtain and possibly exceed so I am feeling like I'm making progress on the design. Yesterday I actually completed 493 stitches which really made my day and then this morning I completed another 126 stitches bringing this month's total to 619; so I am already half way to the goal. Happy Dance!
