8/29/26

 It's been a rough couple of days here.  My 12 year old German Shepherd crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon which has been hard on all of us.  I took her to the emergency vet in town since they have a relationship with a pet crematorium and said my final good byes to her there.

She's been my constant companion while I've been WFH the last 6 years and it's going to be more than a little lonely with her missing from the hallway outside my office.  I just took this picture a few days ago while I was grilling supper.


Ok, onto something happy or I'm going to sit here and cry.

I met my goal for Our Path of Light from Uncomventional XStitch with 1042 tent/521 full x stitches and 3.7% complete.

Catfish Cthulhu is out next and I'm hoping to meet it's goal later today or tomorrow.

 Chatelaine's Heritage Sampler has been out for the last few days.  I've added the year in the personalization at the top and I've gotten maybe 2/3 of the beading complete.  Then I hit a wall.



I've charted what I'm going to add on either side of the garden at the bottom so a finish is my goal for next month.

Our Path of Light from Unconventional XStitch is out next.

 I've met my August goal for Harriet Godherd with 755 stitches.


I was reminded that I can't count, but by the time I noticed I wasn't going to frog and just kept stitching.  The differences make it mine.

Warrior Alice is out next.
