Another Monday...

So, it's Monday again. New week, new plans, new ideas. I'm back to taking my Mondays off work and dedicating them to my study. Yep! I'm back to school again taking more accounting courses (I sign up for 5 between now and sometime in March). I know it's crazy and it will eat up all my stitching time, but I just want to get over with. I do not care about perfect grades but I do want to pass the finals.  I have no idea why I'm doing this, I should be thinking about getting ready for retirement not getting more education and advancing my career.

I did manage to stitch a little. Of course it's a new start (shame on me) Thine is the trick and the treat from Prairie Moon. Here is the progress


I'm stitching in on 32ct willow green linen with floss from The Gentle Art named black crow. When done it should look kind of like this (except for a different background color)


So long friends,
Evalina

  2. There is something about learning, it keeps you on your toes and keeps the mind young. I love the Willow Green choice, it will look stunning when framed.
    Be always in stitches.

  3. Oooh I love this design! Your fabric choice is lovely too. Congratulations on getting more education - "nothing is certain in this uncertain world", so better to be prepared for advancement than forced to retire before you want to.

  4. Accounting is something you can do while retired, it makes good sense. :) I love that pattern, and your choice of fabric is wonderful.
