What A Week

Sorry I have no pictures to share today but I will on Sunday evening.
It has been quite a week.
My daughter had her wisdom teeth out (all 4) and she was in such pain for a few days. One of her cheeks is black n blue. Poor thing!!
I did get some water in the shop on the floor but nothing terrible. It only got my Claire Murray rug a little wet. And a few other things going on that we don't need to talk about. Ugh!!!. But such is life and things make us stronger. I love what Mother Teressa Said
"I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much."
Mother Teresa
Well I am to the shop for the day with my head in a million directions. One of my thoughts is about needlepoint. I am contemplating painting some of my own canvases. They would have to be one of a kinds because I couldn't think of painting the same design over and over again. And then I only want to carry one line of fibers for them because I am just starting and I don't have tons of room, so which line to choose? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I would carry 18ct and 13ct so the fibers would have to be divisible so I could use them on both canvases.
Thank you for reading my ramblings and I will share more photos tomorrow.
Have a good day

Another peek and too much snow on the roof!!!

Here is another peek at my whaling picture.
I got a call today telling me that there were fireman and policeman at the building were the shop is. So I went to check it out and there appears to be to much snow on the roof. The ceiling tiles are falling in the shop next door and the awnings are pulling from the building. The firemen were there to brace them and board up the glass that might break under the pressure. So they are bracing my side too and I don't know if I can open tomorrow or not. We will have to wait and see. I'm sure it will be OK.

I will let you know more tomorrow,
Have a good night

Post For My TUSAL

Here is my picture of the ORT jar that I have for the TUSAL by Daffycat. Not many threads. I dont understand why because I stitch so much. I will try harder!! Still working on "New England Whaling Waters" and I am having fun. I post another peek this weekend. See my Bailey. She wanted to be in the picture too. She is all over me when I stitch.
