Hey Guys,
Sorry it has been so long since I last posted but things aren't going so good. Not only have I put lots of my stash up for sell to help me pay my utilities, now my computer blew up and unless Iget a miracle I won't be getting another one any time soon. I am borrowing my daughters for a couple of days but they have to go back home on Saturday or Sunday. My son-in-law is in the Army and they are stationed way up in New York. That is a long way from me in Tennessee and I have no clue when he will get leave again to come home. I have been stitching a lot since I have no computer but I have no way of showing you the pics because my camera uses a floppy diskette instead of a memory card and so I can't upload my pictures. Maybe by the time I get a computer I will have tons of finishes to show off.
A friend of mine is having a giveaway and all you have to do is sign up for the newsletter. If you post about it on your blog then you get more chances to win a kindle so please check it out. The address is:

I get an additional entry for everyone who clicks on the link above and then you qualify to do the same when you sign up. I hope everyone has a Great Thanksgiving and eat lots of good food for me, we won't be having a big meal as we can't afford to splurge on special groceries. I am hoping to bake a pecan pie though if my pecans are still ok.
Well once again, take care and enjoy the holidays. UntilI I make it back again.
Love in stitches

WOW it's Saturday already, this week has just flew by. Probably because I am trying to get money together to pay my electric bill among others. If you see this then you need to go to my webshotss page and check out my sale. It is at:
community.webshots.com/user/ladyirismom
Then just email me at : ladyirismomsxsonly@gmail.com and let me know what you want. I will even work on the prices a little if you ask nice. Well I got in a little stitching this week but I also had to do a little frogging too. I wish he would leave here for a while and let me make some progress on Maggie the Messmaker. I hope to get to change colors soon. First it was black and now it is white and cream. I can't wait to get up into the pretty colors. I'm going as fast as I can but in the wrong direction, that's the story of my life. LOL
Well I am off to stitch and pray that lots of people are shopping on my album. Good night all.

Welcome

Hello Everyone,
I am new to this blogging thing so please be patient with me while I figure it out. I have been stitching for over 30 yrs but I am just returning to it from a few years off. My health got bad a few years back and I wasn't able to do anything let alone stitch. I missed it so much and now that I am back it is like I never left. I hope that I am doing this right. Last night I started a kit that I bought years ago, it's called "Maggie the Messmaker". My daughter loves cats and I want to do all of these by Charles Wysoki for her. I will try and make this entertaining for you. Let's see, I've been married to my hubby for 20 yrs come December 8th. My darling daughter is 24 and is married to my wonderful son-in-law who just returned from Iraq last week. They are in New York which is a long long way from Maryville Tennessee. Their second wedding anniversary is next week on the 20th and this is the first one they get to spend together, he was in Iraq last year. The day after their wedding I had to have my "baby", a mini dachshund, put down because she had back problems and became paralyzed. She was in pain and scared to death so I couldn't be selfish, I had to let her go. And I want another one so bad. But I can't afford my bills right now let alone a puppy. Maybe one day I will be able to get another one. Well I hope this has told you a little about me. Have a good day.
