I am being watched

What a week. Work was busy last week, my stitching has been slow and everything in between.
If having my right hand swollen at times is not enough, now my left hand is a problem. I saw the doctor yesterday and he prescribed some medication to try. I may have the start of a trigger (left index) finger. As a result, stitching has been little and slowed. But I am seeing red...
more of it at least. I have been switching from the black to the brown and the red. This is such a pleasant piece to stitch. Hood and face complete, I will begin the cloak soon. I also added a few more stitches to Pink Lady.... but no photo taken. As I mentioned, I am being watched... every time I sit at the computer... they look over what I am doing....
They, being my Kachina dolls (some of them) sit on the top shelf of my computer desk. These are five of 12 that I have. Most of them given to me by EvaP. Mom collected these many years ago and when I moved here to Arizona she sent them to me. The others are in my curio cabinet. It seems like they are starting a war dance every time I type! Especially the Turquoise one there on the right in the rear...he tends to move about, like now he is facing/moving behind the center  fellow. I think it is time to take them down and give them a cleaning and changing their places. Maybe he is unhappy with his spot. I can't believe it is almost a week since I visited here! Glad that you stopped by today, and I want to thank you for your kind words re my co-worker Mary's passing. Hope you have a wonderful day. I want to share a rose with you.... picked from Mr H's garden...

What is going on ?

What is with this weather? It is not January yet but the temps feel like it! Can it be! Last evening we had strong winds and pouring rain and very cool temps. When I want need a blanket, it must be chilly. Today the sun is bright but the winds are still here and so is the chilly air. This weekend is suppose to be in the high 60's... now really.

I shave not been stitching, well not very much. It seems I have a melt down. I guess because of late all the stitching has been either sitting in a hospital room, or in a doctor's office that I feel I need a break. I did start this....
It is  LHN Lavender's Blue. I am stitching on 28ct something from the linen draw and using the DMC threads as listed. When I was a young girl.... I loved the song and it I just had to stitch it now. I am still in the finishing of some Christmas stuff.... and so want to start one of the creative dolls. I just need a mental push.
I am off to work today...we were so busy again yesterday...good sales and lots of ladies with sewing projects out there.  Having a 25% off entire purchase coupon also pushed the sales a bit. I hope to be more productive this coming week....thank you for stopping by and have a great day.
Oh.... did you know that Blu Stitcher is having a give away? Be sure to visit and get in the drawing.
