We need to figure out how to stitch AND drive, or in my case, how to drive AND loss weight. Glad you are able to divert your mind off all the things going on in your life and focus on some finishing.....a good mental break as well as.

I moan because our hospital is 8 miles away and there isn't a direct bus any more! It's so unfair that you pay taxes and insurance all your live and then they expect you to pay again for essential treatment. Well, sadly it seems to be going that way here too.<br /><br />Lovely to see some stitching to take your mind off things though. Actually finish-finishing is never as much fun as the stitching! But they do look good when they are all done.Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212073031284341351.post-71982420279022740492017-10-09T00:06:15.597-07:002017-10-09T00:06:15.597-07:00Catherine I hate to hear the troubles Mike has bee...Catherine I hate to hear the troubles Mike has been having. It should not be like that. I'm very glad they found such a wonderful med that is working however. That is an amazing reduction.<br /><br />Love all of your stitches. You have done such a wonderful job on each one. I especially love the little Santa in the tin. Mary and I have that in our stash too and I look forward to stitching it.<br /><br />Mike is in my prayers and I hope he heals quickly. You are in my thoughts as well because I know the stress that comes along with any kind of illness or accident.

My husband may need to be on something like that soon as he was just diagnosed with coronary artery disease (shocking because he is the picture of health--eats healthy and exercises, but he just got the bad genes, apparently!).

I still remember the pain and the long healing. My prayers for quick healing for Mike and strength for you. I really like your finishes. I have a few of those long term UFOs that just need a ribbon or such also. Why do we do that procrastinating? Krissy's sad sack face made me smile, but I feel sorry for her also.

Our Veterans deserve better treatment than that. I hope he gets good reports from the doctors on his next visits. <br /><br />Your stitching is great, I'm especially fond of the PSS Santa. The heart stitch is lovely.<br />Poor Krissy, such a cute photo of her hiding, she must really have been frightened to hide under the covers! <br /><br />I hope the rest of the week goes well for you both, MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352862154860070329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212073031284341351.post-26387460858901190952017-10-05T05:25:16.518-07:002017-10-05T05:25:16.518-07:00Aww, poor Krissy.

We give it to contractors, don't have the energy for DIY. <br />We rarely get those beetles here but again we live on 7th floor. They get attracted to light. I don't have any suggestion to get rid of them, the one mentioned by Pamela sounds good but they can always fly not just crawl to be trapped.Preetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14719450107640709790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212073031284341351.post-17425164593834287722017-10-05T01:32:19.527-07:002017-10-05T01:32:19.527-07:00I hope Mike heals fast.

I continue to keep sending prayers your way for healing for the burns. We don't have beetles in our neck of the woods. This time of year, it's usually gigantic spiders. I am getting a system down of disposing of them without having to touch them. They are way too large and fast to catch by hand. Happy stitching!

I've heard burns are the most painful kind of injury. <br /><br /> I don't have beetles where I live now, but where I used to live the sudents would make a tape "fence" around the beetles on the floor and they stuck to the tape when they tried to run away. The students could get rid of the beetles without the smell of smashing them.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207344791348560569noreply@blogger.com
