Stitching and dreaming.......through the rain

I stitch near the window
I stitch near the rain
I stitch in the car
When a break came.

I love my friend, the needle
It's always waiting there
To push past the strong linen
and into my hands so fair.

This is what I was saying to myself yesterday finishing up the Blue House Sampler.
I know we need the rain.....I think? But this cloudy, gloomy mornings and days are getting to be somewhat depressing by the 5th day. Oh how hard it is to get up at 6 am when it's dark outside and pellets of rain are hitting our tin roof!

But today is my off day and I'm so happy to sleep in late, I guess you could call it. I really dreamed the last 4 or so hours. Have you had those nights of just dreaming the most bizaar things? And I'll doze off and start the dream back where I left off? That's weird. But I guess my mind is cleansing the brain of all our worries and such. It's a good thing I don't remember the dreams to much as the day goes onward.


Last night we had quite a bit of frustration from my laptop computer. It wanted to add programs over and over even when I said "don't allow". So, BG worked on it for about 2 hours and by 1 am I was like

" Pwease, pwease, are you done with my computer yet? I just have to put this picture on my blog!" in a sweet, whining voice and he caved.

So, he came through. It still put a toolbar at the top I've never seen before but we will see as the day goes onward and leaves the past behind.....(oops that was a poem too, I'm into poetry today)........if it stays straight so I can catch up on my blog reading.

Coffee, where's my coffee?
I'll touch base again when I digest some coffee.......Yawn

  1. Rainy days are the best for sleeping in and getting some stitching done. Please send some up our way - we haven't had any for ages. BTW, your finish looks wonderful! I really like it!!
