Mid-Sept. Already??

Can’t believe its mid-September!!

The boys’ school year is really picking up w/all the stuff to do.  Connor started Tiger Scouts this past Monday and I’ve become the defacto leader since no one else can/will.  It won’t be that bad, but its hard to add yet another thing to my schedule.

Haven’t been able to finish the last chart I NEED to complete, so I can send off the other 4 charts to PatternsOnline.com.  Just can’t seem to find enough uninterrupted time.  Busy almost every night the last 2 weeks and I exhausted by 9-9:30pm, so don’t want to get out the laptop and stare at it.

I like my day job, but I’m praying and waiting for the day when I can stay home, do my xstitch stuff, help w/the kids’ stuff AND not be so rushed to accomplish everything.  I’m a person that REALLY NEEDS downtime and I haven’t had that in quite some time.

I’m going to go attempt to get more done on the chart, thinking all the while about all the other things I’ve got to do.

1st of September…

Well, bring on Autumn!!

The boys started school last Monday and both are enjoying all their new activities.  🙂  The hubby and I are getting back into the groove of work, school AND kids’ stuff.

I’ve been trying to work the last week/so on getting patterns transferred and stitching, but didn’t get much done.  I blame it on the 1st week of school…that’s my story and I’m sticking to it!!

I’ve completed 4 charts for submission, working on a 5th AND have stitched 6 of the 30 mini-booksmarks!!  YEA for ME!!  I’m trying NOT to get too stressed about getting everything “ready” for Coat Closet Designs’ October launch w/PatternsOnline.com, but, that’s something I struggle w/daily.

Guess I’ll take the next hour/so @ the day job and work on charts, then take the time between picking up the boys from school to stitch bookmarks.
