STITCHING WITH IRIS

This project has been my salvation in the last couple of weeks.  We are helping my sister move and have been doing so since Thanksgiving.  She is moved into her new hone and settlement on the house she is selling is Monday.  So we are doing everything we can to get the last stuff out of her old house.  It has been complicated by snow 2 days this week.  This is a problem because the driveway is about 400 feet long, twisty and a sharp decline from the road.  My poor DH has been there every day this week, shoveled that driveway twice,  and hopefully for the last time is there today.  On top of all of this our refrigerator broke.  The door hinge broke and the door wouldn't stay shut so we had to go out and buy a new refrigerator.  Then we had new carpeting installed in our living room.  It has been a hectic month.  This next week I hope to bake some cookies.  I got the ingredients to make 5 different kinds.  Just don't know what we are going to do with hem as both of our freezers are totally full.  Oh well that will be Bob's problem.  😊 

I hope he has enough energy this afternoon to put up our Christmas tree.  We went Thursday afternoon and cut it down.  It is a little smaller than our normal thing but at our age maybe that is a good thing.  lol

I finally got the last three LHN Patriot Series designs now I just need to finish Button Up and then get back to stitching them.  I have also started stitching my first Christmas ornament for 2018.  I started a Carolyn Manning design and I think I am going to make all my 2018 ornaments one of her cute little snowman designs.

I  should go do something constructive but I don't know what that should be.  If I had gotten some butter out this morning I could mix up a batch of cookies.  But I didn't get any butter out so maybe I will just go stitch for a little while.  That's constructive, right?
