~12 March ~
So, no picture today. Little Miss N didn’t nap as long as she usually does when I’m there at work, so I didn’t get much done on the blanket. Did change back to the variegated colour though. I have less than 8 rows left to stitch before this blanket is DONE! Can I get a “woot, woot” people?!? :lol:
In other news, I went to get my hearing tested today, and I have to go back again next Wednesday. I guess I’m not all the way over this cold yet, and they want to be absolutely sure what my audiogram looks like before they make a recommendation as to what kind of hearing aid(s) I’ll need . . . *sighs*. Sometimes, I wonder if it would have been easier had my parents raised my younger sister and I as a part of the DEAF-WORLD. Of course I wouldn’t have the same kind of life I do now, so perhaps that’s a good thing . . . Wouldn’t have met James if I was mostly associating with Deaf people.
I’m NOT liking the weather forecasters right now. They’re using bad words . . . 4-letter words . . . like SNOW! GRRRR! Not happy about that one at all . . . especially since apparently Christopher’s snow boots decided to stop fitting him properly with less than a month (I hope!) of winter weather left of this season, and us perhaps not even living anywhere that has snow next year. So tonight we went to Super Wal-Mart to see about finding him some replacement boots. None to be had. They had winter boots for ladies and men there, but nary a one for kids. Come on, people . . . this is EDMONTON we’re talking about . . . it can snow heavily here as late as MAY! (Or even later . . . my mum could tell stories of a blizzard in Red Deer in JUNE! But I digress . . .)
Back to stitching . . . this time cross-stitch. It’s a good thing this work project has 6 separate parts to it, and I’m switching colours fairly regularly, because it’s going to drive me BONKERS! I really should be working on it instead of writing my blog . . . but hey, it’s almost bedtime and I’m sleepy and I don’t want to make a mistake that I’m just going to have to pull out in the morning . . .
And for those of you wondering who I work for . . . http://www.pineglendesings.com/. Great little Canadian company . . . some pretty cute designs, including a “line” of LDS-themed projects.
Well all, wish me luck tomorrow that N will sleep for longer than an hour, and that she’ll actually let me put her down while she’s sleeping! I’d really love to get this blanket finished tomorrow! Gotta love a job where you can stitch pretty much the whole time you’re there! *smirk*
God Bless! 
Woot, woot! from me.
Yes, it’s always good when you finish a project!
I can’t believe they no longer have boots. Seems like you should have been able to find some … and on clearance!
*hugs* about the up-in-the-air feeling. We just told our apartment complex we are moving in June, ’cause they need all kinds of notice and we don’t want to be here anymore. WHERE we are moving, we do not know.
Woot woot!
((hugs))) on the hearing stuff, your sister also doesn’t hear well? Does this run in your family? You know I’m interested in how this whole thing with hearing aids works out because I’m a big fat procrastinator. LOL
GL on N sleeping for ya so you can get the blanket done!
Woot! Woot! Congrats on finishing it.
Hey, I didn’t know you dealt with bad hearing. I hope they can help you to be able to hear better. I have horrible hearing too, I’m worried about it a little.
The link in your post didn’t work for me. I’ve been searching for a cross stitch to do of President Hinckley, but I only find ones that have his Be’s.
