Busy busy day!

Today I am running. Ordering items for the graduation party, updating phones, getting groceries, and picking up another round of photos. Since I am so busy today - what did I do for the last two hours?? Stitch of course! Because dang it - I'm tired of coming on here and saying I wanted to get this this and this done but failed. Instead I have started the day by meeting a goal!


Those are straight lines you see on the upper right corner. I decided to stay on pages 2 and 5. My goal for next Monday - have all the red on these pages complete and be ready to start the male bird the following week.

We had a function last Friday night for the boy. He was acknowledged for his grades at Kent State. It's coming that time of year when you have a banquet/function nearly every week until the end of May. This Friday is prom. Expect to see pictures either Friday or Saturday!

Well, my breakfast of champions is done and I need to hit the shower. What is my version of 'breakfast of champions"? Why it's 2 pieces of reheated pizza and some cake!

Happy Monday - hope everyone has their taxes done!
Denise

Hey, I had two slices of pizza for breakfast! No cake, though. :(

Good for you, stitching first. I did that last weekend (well, two ago, now), and it worked really well. It's obvious it worked for your cardinals!

Looking forward to the photos. Just don't meet yourself coming and going today.
