Wednesday

Well,  I had great intentions.  I thought I would arrive home around 5:30, go for my walk, and settle in to do some stitching and finishing around 7:00.

Life had other plans today.  So I helped my daughter deal with her car troubles and got home about 7:30 instead.  And after eating some dinner and hitting my step goal I was finally able to sit down around 9:00.  So no finishing for me tonight.

I did get an hour or so in on Summer House Pinkeep - a little more of the border completed tonight


And that will have to do for today.  This girl is tired.  It seems that the later it gets in the workweek the earlier I want to go to bed.

I did want to share two other pictures with you tonight.


Today's view of Fun Every Day.  This now resides on top of my refrigerator.  Which is great because of the open plan in the apartment I can see it from the living room and the dining area.

And the glorious sunset from my walk tonight.


It's hard to capture the intensity of the colors with the camera on my phone, but it's what is usually handy.

Thanks for stopping by.

Keep on Stitching!

Tuesday Ta-Da

So, a busy day today.  Work, then home and out for my manicure.  Then a quick trip into the grocery store - and my walk.  I try to walk 10,000 steps a day now.  I wear a Garmin Vivofit 3 which gives me this little reward when I hit my step goal


Sorry for the glare.  And then when I changed the screen so that I can see the clock again  this little beauty came up - a medal for hitting my step goal 5 days in a row.  How cool is that?


As you can probably tell, it doesn't take much to thrill me.

So, after my walk it was time to sit and stitch - a reward for having hit my step goal.  I put the last stitches in Coverlet Berry Scissor Tray by The Scarlett House.


I am pleased with the way this came out.  Tomorrow night I hope to do the finishing on this one.

I started this one - you know the one that I wrote about yesterday - Country Sampler Girl's Club, Summer House Pinkeep by Stacy Nash.  Just a little start, but a start.


Thanks for stopping by and taking time to comment.  I really love the comments.

Keep on Stitching!
