Early post

My goodness, I can't remember when I have posted this early in the day! It could be that I have been up for most of the morning... yes, since 1 AM. Zoe was up. She never seemed to be bothered by storms, but I think she is now. Once again we had a rain, thunder and lightening storm. This one last night was not as bad as Tuesday nights storm, but she seems bothered by it now. Here we are coming to the end of our Monsoon season and we are getting storms almost every night. We really do need the rain so no complaints. Sleep was an on/off situation until Zoe decided to sleep at 4:30 AM and here I am wide awake... well, I am awake at any rate. I go in for 1 PM today so I can at least take it easy until then. One laundry in the wash and one in the dryer. I do think I need another cup of coffee.
But first....

The Lady is taking shape! It is such a nice pattern to work on. I think I will complete her skirt before adding her arms. I just noticed a stitch that seems off a little in her face so I will try to fix that before doing anything else. Still gathering my thoughts on her embellishments and finish.
I gathered some beads to make a red and white bracelet using Tila beads. I like to wear a bracelet everyday and I do not have a red one. I have 2 completed bracelets to mail off to 2 of my cousins. I had completely forgotten about one of my WIPs so that too will be in the mix this weekend. Time to think about Christmas stitching. Have you started your projects yet?
I hear the wash has finished so off I go. Welcome to my new friends....I love hearing from all of you. Thank you for stopping in to today...enjoy your day.
