Not much...

stitching going on at "Cathryn's Place".  DH is very sick.  He was at the doctor's on Friday and doc wanted him in the hospital.  He won't go.  I can't do anything anymore except gofer him.  Get this and that and the other.  He goes back to the doctor on Monday.  I hope he changes his mind about going to the hospital, but I really doubt it.  He is very depressed and dealing with quite a few health issues.  I am really not sure how all of this will end up, but I do know it's all in God's hands.  Thank you, 'Abba'.  Cause I sure can't do anything and I am comforted to know that you are in control.  Not me.

*sigh*  At least I have my newsletter for April done.  That is one thing off my mind.

The snow was beautiful today.  We have been watching it all day.  Every once in a while I would go to the back door and open it for a nice cold breath of fresh air and appreciate the beauty of it all.  I am in a wheel chair you see... disabled if you want to call it that.  But it was enjoyable nonetheless.  Just before dinner I did another trip to the back door.  So quiet, so lovely... then... 'meow'... what???  Kitty,kitty, kitty?  Penny?  (My lost for a couple of weeks tuxedo cat.)  Meow?  Kitty, kitty, kitty.... a black and white flash zooms in the back door.  There she is.  Home!  What a lovely gift.  Thank you Father.

Hope your Saturday, Sunday and all the rest of your days are blessed.

Last Night's Stitching (Fri 3/16)

LHN's Little House ABC Samplers (XYZ).
I am enjoying finishing this one.  I'm going to hang it somewhere near my stitching chair so I can look at it frequently.  :)

This is what DH and I watched yesterday afternoon.  A hungry fox who lives in a dead fallen tree trunk up the hill from us kept coming back to finish off the dog food our dogs left.  He was beautiful to watch and kept coming back until he finished the leftovers.  I took the picture through our screen door.  (No it's not warm enough.  The storm window was down too.)

Have a good weekend y'all.

Farmhouse Christmas Update

I forgot where I was in my rotation so last night I picked up Farmhouse Christmas.  This is where I am from the last time.  I did this all last night.

Space of time is because DH needed me to wait on him.  Having trouble breathing because of pneumonia.  I am hopeful that he is improving though.

Wish you could see the accurate colors on this.  I love Classic Colorworks Cherry Cobbler.  It's beautiful!  :)

Until next time,
Cathryn

XYZ update

My update from last night.  Little House Needleworks ABC House Samplers (XYZ).  I stitched some white in the lower right grass and some light brown and dark brown on the woman and the house.  Again, didn't get much done because DH isn't well.  Went to doctor's this morning and he had a CT scan and some other tests done.  We shall see what he says. 

Tonight, if I can (I'm tired and DH needs someone to go-fer for him) I will work on Farmhouse Christmas.

Take care y'all.

Farmhouse Christmas farm

Well, finally, true to my word.  I started Farmhouse Christmas by Little House Needleworks last night.  I must admit I only stitched a couple of hours.  I was very tired because DH hasn't been feeling well and I am his go-fer.  I really don't mind.  I feel so sorry for him.  I am not going to use the tiny snow flakes around each chart.  Instead I am going to use them around the entire 9 series for the border. 

Well, tonight back to XYZ.  Back and forth... and so on and so on and so on.  ;0)

Have a great day y'all.

XYZ Update

This is 2 nights of stitching on Little House Needlework's ABC Samplers XYZ.  Bottom 2 rows were done before I got sick.  The rest was stitched last night.  There is only 1/2 a row to go to finish the grassy area.

Tonight I will start Little House Needlework's Farmhouse Christmas and switch back and forth until XYZ is done and then concentrate on Farmhouse Christmas.

Hope y'all have a great Wednesday.  :)
