Two Finishes and the Red Headed Stranger

It has been forever since I have posted and I have really missed it.  I have rarely been on blogger since school started because I am always at the school volunteering so much that I can't see straight.  I am ready for a volunteer break!!

I have two project finishes to share with you that I stitched up for the Quilts for Older Children and Adults Yahoo Group.  I love this group and I find myself stitching a lot for them.  I also finished a floss tag for an exchange on Stitch-n-Swap 2 Yahoo Group Summer Exchange.

Finally, I would like to finish with a picture of The Red Headed Stranger that my daughter took while attending her very first concert with her Dad on the 9th of October.  This may be the last time we get to see Willie, he is 79, surely he will retire on day--I would at that age.

March Update - No stitching for me.

Busy, busy, busy!!  I started working full time 16 Feb filling a long term sub job in an elementary early intervention special ed class.  Totally forgot what it is like to work full time and this go around I am doing it with three kids in elementary school.  You should be at my house in the mornings, what a zoo!! Needless to say, my days are full with work and taking care of my family.  Thankfully, Spring Break is next week so I can catch up with all your great blogs and visit a bit with you all.

I am on a stitching hiatus due to a recent diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel.  What a bummer!!  That is okay, my hands are feeling better and I hope to start stitchng again in early April.  It is not fun to stitch when you can't feel your fingers -- very odd sensation.  It also bothers me when I drive, but I just can't seem to get our of my family bus driver duties.  I am hoping if I take care of myself and do as the doctors says I can prevent surgery. 

Today I am buying tickets to see Willie Nelson, he is coming to our little town in North Texas.  I am so excited to get to see him or as my husband likes to refer to him "The Red Headed Stranger".

Enjoy your Spring Break and don't forget to set you clocks back tonight.

See ya!!
