Good morning!!! I'm staying put, achy sore night, so hopefully easier day!
The kids have been very good so I've given them each a bigger treat! Not a peep out of either while I'm having my breakfast. Hope that wasn't a mistake!
Well I thought I'd say thank you for the Queen of UFOs group's support and mention that I've competed around 21 various sized UFOs (quilted items) since 2021 and of those 6 were donated (many others previously but not noted in these excel sheets). I promise I will continue with this plan you've started as a group to reduce my list of 51 UFO's (not all as I've three boxes of UFO's to list yet) but may not post there if we're shutting down. I will one day get my list completed and add NEW projects as they arrive!!!

It's going to be a QUIET restful day and hopefully less aches!!! At first Bubba was content near Dahli, who's snoring. Then up Bubba jumped into my lap (more bruises I'm sure) and moved upwards!!! I wonder if leather pants would protect me??? YEAH SURE!!!
Well Sylvia finished off, mostly by herself, that puzzle we were working on this month. Lovely.
Today I watched Christmas movies and now working on Jacqui's gifted hexies project (mucho larger than my usuals) while listening to the Canada Junior and now Jets hockey!
They are very lazy today!!!

Finally!!!! I found a way to get those gross feeds off my story lineup. Hold your finger on it and pops up option to mute it and I selected "until I choose to unmute". Will see if that works.
Okay I know I spoiled them at the start with access to my lap BUT now I want to stitch! Nope Bubba had enough of the couch and insisted he want to be here too! Is there anymore room in this chair? I'm cramped but not gonna try to get up till I need to or they leave, whichever first! 🙄
Juniors hockey and fireplace with piano music!!! What else could I ask for? Wine? Later maybe!
Okay those cuddles seem to have been axed! After their supper, they didn't want to go outside but 2 hours later I went out with them and wouldn't let them back in until completed. Well after a few minutes of dily dallying they both did so and hightailed it back into the house! Silly kids!
Well I did give them each a treat right away BUT they're mad at me and now that I've put my sewing away they both refuse to join me!!! Hmmmm wonder how long this boycott will last? 😆🫨🤔
The next two days will be interesting with colder temps!!!

I know I had a chuckle and I'm sure the guy knocking did too watching me try to get up from the recliner with this stitching box in my lap! Talk about fun controlling the pugs and answering the door!!! I NEVER get visitors and here twice this week!!! Anyways he even recognized my work similar to his Grandmother's! WOW!!!

Well I thought I'd watch a Christmas movie before switching to the Juniors hockey while stitching. Good idea but kinda a wrong choice! Don't get me wrong it was lovely but the last half hour was a tear jerker and Bubba kept watching me! Poor sensitive guy!!! I think it was a Southern Family Christmas. Now to clear the sight so I don't go jabbing my fingers more!!!
So happy they are back to sharing!!! 🥰

I'm so glad I got to visit with Eilene and Bruce this afternoon! Poor girl tripped over an opened lower drawer and broke her foot just before Christmas and hobbling in a lower leg/foot cast!!!
So back with the dogs, still stitching and watching hockey. I only have Dahli sharing my chair and I think Bubba does not like the box or the laptop with hockey too close compared to the TV up high! I'll see if he joins me when I put the box away!

Well it's been a very quiet entry into the New Year for me. Yesterday I ventured out for a couple hours of puzzle therapy at Sylvia's. Not sure about the succulents puzzle though! But we did book our girls week quilting escape, this time at Pineridge Point Cabin in St Malo. We're all looking forward to this closer location. Will see if it's a repeat or not.
Today Adele picked up my spirits with a much needed colour n cut! Thank you very much!
Then I did a couple errands before heading home, tired and achy!
