A very busy week

I have hardly had time to stitch this week.

Monday I went to visit Colly and ended up staying for lunch. I did a little on ISD in the afternoon but certainly not enough to take a picture of. Monday night we were over at Mums helping to shift furniture out.

Tuesday I spend most of the day doing the dreaded house work - but after proving to my grandson that I could write "I love you" on the furniture I thought it was really time I had a good clean. It was all neat and tidy but all the furniture needed a good polish and a lot of my ornaments needed a good wash. Tuesday night I went out for a meal with some old and dear friends - lol I dont mean the friends are old but that they are friends of long standing.

Wednesday and Thursday Mum had the decorators in so I fetched her over to my house in the morning and had to run her all the way home again in the evenings. I managed a little stitching but not much.

Friday morning I did a little h/w and a little stitching and then went to meet another friend for lunch - I seem to have eaten rather well this week lol. My Mums decorator had finished on Thursday night and the carpet fitter came on Friday morning, so friday afternoon was spent replacing the furniture and then Keith had to reconnect and set up the TV and DVD again for her and also reconnect all the computer stuff. We didnt leave her house until 8pm and we hadnt eaten. As we were both in jeans and rather hot and sweaty we would not have felt comfy to pop in somewhere for a meal so it was back home to cook and a very late meal.

Cannot go to bed on a full tummy so nothing for it but to sit down and relax. Keith went of to play on his computer and I came up here to my den, got all snuggly comfy and stitched. It was the turn of hardanger house this week and though I havent had a lot of time I do feel as though I achieved quite a bit also and more importantly I have really, really enjoyed this weeks stitching. I did the chimney and the large diamond leave design down one side of the apex and I also managed to do almost all of the inner border edging. There is about and inch left to do of that but I will do that next time as I do the diamond leaf down the other side of the apex. I did try taking a bigger pic but it just doesn't show up.

I really must apologise that I am so far behind with reading everyones blogs. I do keep trying to read a few each day and I am trying to keep them in order so that I get round to everyone eventually. The main problem is once you get behind it takes twice as long as there are two or three posts to read and nearly always leave comments for on every blog I visit. I often think I will just read them and not take time leaving comments and then I like what I see and just have to say so LOL.

I hope you each and everyone have a wonderful and peaceful weekend with lots of stitching time.
