Progress, new start and stash

I have been working away on HAED Literate Dragon. It is a SAL with the BB.
There is a lot of confetti stitching so it is taking me forever to work on. I am stitching this 1x1 on 25 ct evenweave.

I started an ornament from the JCS 2003 ornament issue. It is I love Christmas by Gloria & Pat designs. I am stitching this on 28 ct evenweave.
I decided to stitch on a Christmas ornament on Sundays to give me a break from HAEDs.

I also received 3 HAED charts in the mail.
 HAED QS Night at the Pumpkin Patch- Ching-Chou Kuik
 Mini A Pale Comparison - Jasmine Becket-Griffith
Mini Village Bookstore - Randal Spangler

I have no idea when I will get to stitch these but I love the charts and collecting the HAED charts is addictive.  

I finished reading The Long Quich Goodbye by Avery Aames and it was a cute cozy mystery.

I am now reading The Gin and Chowder Club by Nan Rossiter and I am enjoying it.

I also have been cutting back on tv shows as I want to get back into watching movies. So I no longerDVR Live with Kelly & Michael, or Home & Family. If General Hospital keeps up with the vampire stories then I am done with that too. Don't get me worng I loved The Twilight series and I watch The Vampire Diaries, on Thursdays, on the CW. But not on my soaps. I also stopped watching Revenge and I am getting bored with Pretty Little Liars. Next season is the last for a couple of my shows, I believe.

Happy Stitching!

Busy day

I cleaned the house this morning before doing anything else. Then I put the games on my new computer. All the Sims2 and 3 and Sim City 4 and Sim City Societies are on it. I have some tycoon games to add later on.
Then while stitching I uploaded more audiobooks to my laptop and listened to Dead In The Family by Charlaine Harris.
I finished SanMan Designs 2011 Winter Snow - just had to add the backstitching today.


Then I pulled out an ornament to finish . This was January Challenge #4 - JBW Designs.
Then Poof Hat by Ursula Michaels came out, since it is Halloween/Autumn/Thanksgiving Sunday
I also played Sims2 for an hour.
I watched Bones from Thursday and Friday's General Hospital.

Told you I had a busy day lol.

Finally!! an ornament

Most of my stitching friends know that I stitch an ornament every month around the 25th to keep Christmas alive. But this year has been very bad and I think I stitched 1 in January. I don't count exchanges. This is Patriotic Snowman by The Stitchworks, LTD from the 2003 JCS ornament issue.
