Last evening proved to be very stormy around Arizona and here in The Valley too. Wind...thunder and lightening with pouring rain. Some areas flooded (not here) and there were reports of hail. For now it is over and the morning is starting to be sunny and comfortable but the forecast is for the temps to return to 90 for the weekend. Crazy weather for sure. The Brother Alan commutes from Providence RI to Boston MA daily for work and I worried about his train ride...but all went well.
I cannot find a few things...things that I need for my beading and such. Why? Well with starting to change things around here for the eventual move of The Brother from RI to Arizona, I have begun to move this and that. Mainly it is my storage of craft supplies. The second bedroom which is now his and was my sewing/craft room with a full closet of storage has meant that my storage has changed to my bedroom closet and the garage. I have begun to weed out many things that I will no longer need or want and will continue to do so but when I put something away I seem to be loosing it. Getting used to the new storage is not easy ! There definitely must be gremlins who have moved in. Where are those small clear bags? What happened to the Tatting thread? Who has the hand held hole punch? the rest of this week will be trying to locate said items. Yesterday I rearranged one shelving unit in the garage and have a few kits to offer up. I am on cross stitch hiatus at the moment.
This Mirabella has linen and specialty thread and beads....if I have not stitched it by now I most likely will never. When I think of the money spent and it sits in a box.
These kits are also from that same box. Do not get me going on the many patterns that will also be going. I have lots of Blackbird Designs that are in the never to be used category. I just had to have them. I added quite a bit of paper to my recycle bin yesterday...you know all those free patterns that you print out but never get to. My goal is to really de-stash this week. Maybe I will even find those bags that I need...of course once I go and buy them I will find them. So in between beading Santa and trying to convince the gremlins to give me back my things I will be in the garage the rest of the week.
Glad you visited today. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship. I will try to report back in the next few days as long as the gremlins do not take me away!
