In my part of the world we say you are a fool if your passion for a pursuit overcomes all practical sense. I am a stitching fool, and I stitch foolishness.

Finishing . . . SO much finishing!

Tomorrow I am going to put Christmas ornaments together.

I've been trying to get to that for the last three days and something has interfered every time, so this is it. Tomorrow I am going to finish, finish, FINISH!!!

And I've added another ornament to the stack of ornaments that need to be done:


 Barbara Jackson't 2024 ornament through Shining Needle Society--no, the class hasn't officially started yet but I think this will be something like the 23rd or 24th of her ornaments I've stitched over the years. I believe I've figured out how to put them together by now.

And I need to finish decking the halls and clean the guest room (which means finding a home for all the stuff that is covering the bed) and make an extensive grocery list because The Saint is coming for a combination Thanksgiving/Christmas celebration on Saturday. As she has taken over Mother's job of critiquing everything we do, we need to be ready for the inspection.

And then I can sit back and enjoy the season.
