It has Been a LONG TIME!!

Yesterday, I just laid around and finished embroidering one of my Baby's towels. I still have 5 more. I am working on one more right now that has a pheasant on it. The one that I just finished up had 2 different pictures on it. One was of a fish jumping out of water. And the other had a fish on a sign that said "Fishing... to lake". I just got done washing it. It turned out really well, if I do say so myself. His mom got them for me for Christmas in 2007. I really feel bad that I didn't get them done before, but late then never.

I am NOT going to talk about work today. I am off, and that is all I am going to say about it.

I told my Baby that my job wouldn't take over my life. But UNFORTUNATELY it did. I am sorry, Baby. I never meant for it to happen. You are still number ONE in my life. And you ALWAYS WILL BE!!! Please believe me. PLEASE!!!

My Baby got a new picture last week. It is so beautiful. It has a buck and doe along a pond with a cabin behind them. The guy who made it sold it to him for $20. He made the frame that it is in. I think they are made of barn boards. It matches the other pictures we have on the walls. The other big pictures we have on the walls are both that I painted. They are the paint-by-number kind. One has two wolves on it. One is howling with a full moon shining. That one has a frame that a friend of my Baby's made for him. His name was Dale Wennihan. It is really pretty with the frame. Shortly after he made him the frame Dale passed away. The other one is of a fishing cabin looking out the window at the stream. It has a fish hanging on the wall above the window, with a fly fishing rod, and a net. It is really pretty. That one I made the frame. It isn't as good as the other frames. I didn't really know what I was doing, but I loved making it for him. If I remember right I made that one for his birthday and the wolf one for Christmas one year. I really like making things for my Baby, because he appreciates them so much. I also made him a lap quilt with a cabin in the middle, surrounded by a duck, deer, bears, fish, moose, and a wolf. I hand sewn that with a back fabric with deer, raccoons, and trees on it. It is really pretty. I made Gabriel one for when he was born. If I remember right it has a bear on it. I don't really remember, it has been a while since I seen it. So as you can tell, I like to sew, embroider and just spend time with my Baby, and do other things OTHER THAN WORK AT CASEY'S.

I am going to get off of here and work some more on my Baby's towels. Have a good day. Hopefully, I will get on here with pictures for you later. Take care and have a good night if not. Roxi

Roxie..seems like you are just about as creative as Bill..you two make a great pair!

I've tried to embroider, and stuff like that, but I'm afraid that I'm just not all that good at it.

Once, I took a sewing class, and one of our projects was to make a lined coat.

I had to take the stitches out so many times, that I just about destroyed the fabric! LOL

Oh Jan, I am sure that you are NOT that bad. ;) I actually like to just sit on my butt. ;) And doing things with my hands has always satisfied me. My Grandma used to paint ceramics, and bake. So to me it just gets me closer to her. I think that it is exciting. I have some ceramics here and at my mom's that I painted. I love to do things with my hands. So thank you for your comment. I really REALLY appreciate it. Roxi
