Good afternoon my peeps! I have missed y'all. I have been so sick. I had the flu for a week and that went into a severe sinus infection. This respiratory stuff has even gone through all four of my cats. Sneezing, runny eyes and fever. They have all been to the vet for shots.

I got this from a lady at Aldi. She was coughing in her arm. I even turned around and went down another aisle. I met her two aisles over and she looked at me and coughed on me!!! I looked at her like oh no! Three days later I had a sore throat, coughing, headache and body aches unreal. Anybody that knows me knows I am a super germaphobe. I was even before Covid, but especially since Covid. I don't understand people who don't stay home when they are sick! She has cost me hundreds of dollars in my care and my cats care.

Anyway, I am feeling better finally. Yesterday is the first day that I have cross stitched in about 10 days. So I know I am on the mend. One good thing, I was so nauseated I couldn't eat and I have lost 10 pounds. Going to try and keep that going.

Stay well. Happy stitching!

Good morning my peeps! I am so sick. Pretty sure it's the flu. Headaches unreal, body aches some better today. Fever running from 99 to 101.Just the thought of food...YUCK. I can't even watch Bobby Flay. Eating crackers and Sprite.

Good morning my peeps! You know this has been a different week for sure. Normally I would be going through all my sacks of stuff that I bought at Paducah. We didn't even go this year! First time in over 20 years at least that we didn't go. Except when they didn't have it on count of Covid. But...it's not like I don't have enough fabric to out last my lifetime. I did order some stuff to make some project bags for cross stitching. I just enjoy my cross stitching so much.

I need to get up and clean house. Especially now that Bessie Jane has been in the cat toy basket pulling out her favorite toys.

You know I am so thankful for many things,but especially thankful for my friends that stand beside me and not behind me. There is a huge difference.

Enjoy your weekend. We need the rain that is coming. Happy stitching whichever way you decide to do it.

Good afternoon my peeps! Today is a cooking day at my house. I have made chicken stew and Chocolate Cobbler. It's so good. Great by itself or with vanilla ice cream. I refrigerate and heat a bowl all the time. Still really good. But...how can chocolate be bad? I don't understand people who don't like chocolate or cats...lol. Chased a squirrel there.

I just pour a little oil in my pan to grease it, instead of adding it in the batter. Works great. Thanks Janice! One of my favorite recipes.

Happy stitching!

Good afternoon my peeps! Brrr...I had to turn my heat back on today. We had a blast playing strip poker at the guild meeting.

I thought I would share our Show And Tell pics.

Hope y'all have a good week. Happy stitching!

REMINDER ... Bring eight 2.5 inch fabric strips!

Guild meeting is Thursday April 2nd. We meet at Friendship Church on Lucas Ferry Rd in Athens, Alabama. Meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. Several of us eat at Burrito Express at 5:00 p.m. Everyone is welcome. Just tell them you want to sit with the quilters. Or you will probably hear the chatter from our tables!

Good morning my peeps! Are you ready to get naked? April Fools!!! But...we are going to strip. We will be playing strip poker with 2.5 inch strips the width of the fabric. You will need to bring 8 strips. And if you forget there will be a few extras floating around I am sure. Someone will go home with a bunch of strips!

I had to go to the hospital the other day for a test and I looked up at the ceiling and what did I see? The Camp Hope canary yellow stars! I had to laugh. Thought I would share a pic of Maggie helping me play Mahjong.

Hope to see you at the meeting. Happy stitching!
