Glee, some stitching and Phil

This is the dismal progress I have made on La D Da's A-Z &Between. I am hoping to stitch some more today but not counting on it.

Here's the group minus one dog  watching "Glee" and being there for their Dad. Phil got home last night and the group decided watching "Glee" in our room was of the upmost importance.I took photos,made popcorn and stitched. We are still waiting to hear on Phil's Mum. I am also waiting to hear from the British Embassy about his passport. As I said yesterday it's a long sorted tale with too many details. Phil is beginning the phone calls so I'd better run... I have children to ship off to school and day 3 of P90X ... oh boy :) J

First day of P90 X

So my co mgr at the Bux is doing P90X and I have lost my mind and joined her. I did my first workout this afternoon and I am very sure I will pay dearly tomorrow.  Day 1 down 89 to go.  I am off in the shower and to cheer Miss Emma up as she is cranky from too much acting,school and not enough sleep. Shower first - :) J

What a beautiful Sunday morning !

We are in the middle of our busy weekend and I am taking a moment to stitch and think. Phil and I are so  lucky to have such an awesome family. Here are some pics...
This is the poster for Miracle Worker, Emma has been hard rehearsing and I am looking forward to seeing the productionMaggie and her friend Jodie had a sleepover. We don't expect to see them for a bit.Em,Phil,myMom and I went to see the KAS production of Sweeney Todd last night. It was just AWESOME.

Here is Ben discovering how to master his pokemon game. He's not even dressed yet lol.
As I wrote earlier this week I have had a series of migraines so stitching has been at a slow down. I haven't got a lot done but here's the progress. Until tomorrow... J

Big weekend ahead...

Good Friday all !

I am still suffering from a migraine - this knd of sucks. I opened today and had to leave a tad early because of the head. The Butler's have a huge weekend with soccer, Emma's rehearsals,Emma's Snow White performance and work. I wouldn't mind getting in a round of golf too but I am sure that goes to the bottom of the list.
On the stitching front I went to Angel night last night and didn't accomplish much but sure laughed a lot as usual. I have decided to work on the needlebook Thursdays and need to purchase a magnifier as 32 count gets smaller and smaller as the night moves on.I also need to find a set of long scroll bars for my "Big Zipper"- I have a great lapstand this project will be easy to work on. I have been working on a small project at work and one beside my bed. I will post pictures soon. Happy weekend everyone...

Stop me now...

I do not have pictures right now but I must report I went into the garage and pulled out a bag of  stitching items. I get this way when I am medicated from a migraine and I become a tad manic... I decide I have to do something right then and there , I then become overwhelmed and walk away from a mess. I am awesome! LOL. The mess I have left in the sticthing/office is not that bad but I did discover I should NOT have placed an on line needlework order as I had forgotten I have a BUNCH of super groovy stuff to stitch already...oops  let's not share this with Phil. I was able to order Christmas Hares from Plum Street today and a few other goodies so the guilt is not that bad... I have been plugging away at one of the projects I started this weekend and am ready to hit the pit.
 Phil and I were just discussing my big 40. My Mom ,twin sister Marnie and I are heading to Seattle to outlet shop . This is the second annual"run to for the border"birthday shopping spree. Before we head out it looks like we may be going to my niece's Mother's Day Tea - I am so excited !!! I love it when a plan comes together...:0) I hope you were able to follow all of this - until tomorrow- J

It's almost time to plant pumpkins. I know this is all random -  sorry. I may also do some online needlwork shopping. Oh boy stop me now :)
Here's a picture of the boys. I tried to get them to sit still - this is the best I could do...
