Hot Saturday!!!

Whew!! It's a scorcher in KY!! Too hot to even sit on the porch, something we love to do!!
Took the "old folks" (that is my 91 and 86 year old parents) to Sams today, parked Dad in a wheelchair, and off we went!! He is a little unsteady on his feet, so I figured if he didn't ride, we would have been there for a least 3 hours!! LOL!! We had a good time!!
Made a papermache box today for a friends B'day...I decorate the top with stuff about them, and I made paper tags to go inside..if I can ever figure out how to use
this darn camera, I'll post some pictures!!!
In the cross stitch department, I'm trying to finish up my Trilogy Halloween picture, should wrap that up this week!!! Thinking about ordering the new LK Xmas flipits, I feel like I need a little pick-me-up!!LOL!!
On the book front, I'm reading a WONDERFUL book, The Girls by Lori Lansens,,,give it a try, I don't think you will be disappointed!!
Well, off to read!!
Until next time...

Hello, Friends!!!

It has been forever since I've posted, lots going on!! I did purchase a new computer, a laptop!! Now, the next purchase will be a camera!!! Then hopefully, I'll be able to post some pictures!! With help of course!!!
I'm stitching on a Trilogy Halloween piece, almost finished!! I'm also doing a patriotic primitive stitch for a wonderful online friend of mine!! I have made many friends just by joining exchanges and posting on individual blogs!!
Had a busy weekend, DD and granddaughter came in from Lexington, Ky Friday and just left!! I so enjoy their visits!! They used to live in Atlanta!! 8 hour drive compared to an hour and a half, wonderful!!!!
In a minute hubby and I are going to sit on the porch and I'm going to relax and read!! Started "Girls" by Lisa Larsen yesterday, it's going to be great!!!

I'm going to make this short tonight, hope you gals had a great weekend and also have a wonderful blessed week!!
