Moving day is quickly approaching! We are scheduled to load up and leave on September 2nd, which is a week and from today. This move happened a lot faster than I had planned, and I didn't have the time I'd like to visit everyone before we go. I did have a couple of visits planned, one with the Belladonnas and one with Amber and Sherry, former coworkers and victims of Sears. I didn't get to have a final brunch with the Brunch Bitches of Taylor, but we did actually have several in this year, so I don't feel so bad about that. Everyone else.. well, the road works both ways, y'all. People who made an effort to see me, got to see me. Those who made zero effort and wanted me to do all the work... g'bye forever!
Maybe not forever but.. this move has shown me who really cares and who wants it to be about them all the time. As if I didn't know but still.. ANYWAY... that's not what this blog is about.
This is the last cross stitch I did in Texas. I finished it last Thursday and now I have all of my stitchy things packed except for stuff for my next two projects, in case I get to work on them in the hotel while we are traveling or if I need something to do before the movers get to the house, since it's gonna take them longer than it takes us. I would say it's the last one I did in the house I grew up in but we all know I will do more cross stitching there when I visit. So I'll say the last one I did when I LIVED in the house I grew up in. Why do I chronicle these sort of sad things? I don't know...
This one is by SonOfAStitch. I did alter the patten a bit because some of the colors in the original pattern weren't going to show up on this sparkly aida. Can you see the sparkles?? I love it when they show up in a photo! I say this all the time so it was great to find a cool pattern that said it. I now need to find one that say "Die in a fire", because that's another Jonesey-ism.
