The older I get, the more apt I am to do what I feel like doing and to heck with the rest.<br /><br />Debra in NCUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464485418523470156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-43531926683454276672009-12-04T05:48:17.085-05:002009-12-04T05:48:17.085-05:00You always crack me up.

Meanwhile, my family is taking great enjoyment out of doing imitations of me lying on the sofa, looking like a beached whale, moaning about having nothing to stitch. Blergh. I hope you are able to snap out of it soon!

It must be going around because I have had it lately also. I tried this entire week to work on the next part of a project from my German group (I don't speak German, but stitching has no language - ha!), and spent more time ripping it out. Then I finally finished this very small part and went to send the group a picture so I could get the next part, and the scanner won't work!<br /> <br />Sometimes it is better to just sit back, find something else to do, and wait it all out.Juelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178518091908141655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-84391502273952801852009-12-03T22:58:07.279-05:002009-12-03T22:58:07.279-05:00Being in a slump is the dumps - I feel for you.

What is that thing about 1000 cranes?).<br /><br />Stewey - I lu-u-uv your collar - wish I could get my girls to wear one - but Annie and Nellie won't even keep a regular collar on, and we won't discuss what they did to their Christmas kerchiefs last year!Nitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13684540688759256374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-71228203284636778692009-12-03T20:04:10.327-05:002009-12-03T20:04:10.327-05:00Coni,

Then I had to go back to the beginning and read every word that you'd written (and all the comments! - Can you say 'OCD'?) I have laughed until my ribs hurt! Thank you for the joy you've given me!<br /><br />Then I went through your blog from the beginning again and made a list of all the projects you had done that I just had to do for myself. Many of these I had seen in the LNS, but your pictures of them were much more enticing than their official cover photo. While I thank you for the vastly expanded wishlist, my hubby is not as appreciative (he's anticipating the pain in his wallet!).<br /><br />I'm eagerly awaiting the return of your stitching mojo. Meanwhile, have a cup of tea, a couple Christmas cookies, and spend some time playing in your stash!<br /><br />AnneAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06030837302795028388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-20335877051859940222009-12-03T19:10:15.671-05:002009-12-03T19:10:15.671-05:00Stewey, you handsome devil!

No worries, one day you'll see something, have to stitch it, and voila! your mojo's back.<br />Just relax and don't stress. Decorate your tree.
