SATURDAY AFTERNOON SPINSTER BLISS...

The late afternoon view from the big girl sleigh bed:

A big pot of chicken stew bubbling away for later:

Some fresh snow:

The Army/Navy game on the TeeVee:

A new stitchy start, because Miss Linda at the House of Stitches inspired me:

Cozy man toes:

I'm totally bummed that I missed my stitchy sisters at the Elkhart EGA luncheon today, but alas, I am just not feeling well at all.  I suspect that it is a little touch of flu and that it could be much much worse had I not gotten the flu shot in November like a good girl.

Either that or it's something exotic and I will be used as a test subject for finding a cure.

(Which I am completely fine with, by the way.)

I'm going to have a hot bath, some more water, and then snuggle in for some stitching.  I hope that your very own Saturday is...blissful...and that you will come tell me all about it!

    It is Nutcracker weekend for us! The oldest GD is in three shows this weekend, so doing my part to support her.

    No snow here in N FL. It is too darn COLD though @ 43* brrr.. gonna be 28*tonight. Thank God our winter weather doesn't last only a wk or so with just 4-5 below freezing nights. This may happen once or twice all winter. My toes are frozen even with 2 prs of socks & the heat on. Guess it's time for a throw over the lap & maybe a pot of chili on the back burner.
    Enjoy your snow but PLEASE don't send it here. lol
    Blessings,
    Baa

    Watched the Army Navy game while I stitched a Christmas present. All football games should be played that way. Few penalties, no cheap shots, and no end zone antics. XOXO

    We had a bit of snow here -- covered everything except the roads and the sidewalks. I hope you are feeling better on the soon side of things. Thinking of you!

    I look forward to reading your posts! I "discovered" you a few months ago and was immediately drawn into your stories. Just wanted you to know you have yet another fan/friend. Hope you get past this flu quickly.

    Here in Minnesota we only have a dusting of snow usually we have a few feet of snow on the ground, like five feet, nope all the snow is on the east coast, does not make me sad nope not at all in fact if the snow never came again this old 66 year old lady would feel just fine.
    I hope this comment finds you feeling better

    I love your new start!!! I got to spend the with a group of stitching pals! We do a cookie day every December and today was that day. Bake Pfeffernuesse, exchange our own cookies, eat lunch, have dessert, a stash (I won't stitch it, but you might) exchange and got in a little stitching in between!

    I'm in Sunday now. Saturday whizzed by in a blur like all the days do and I seem to have no energy. The snow is lovely. The Christmas music is on. DH watched the Army/Navy game yesterday. Love, hugs & prayers, Cathryn ♥♥♥
