Good Morning!!

It's a cool crisp Friday morning here in Oregon. With so many things on my plate today this entry will need to be short and sweet. Mom is bug dusting around this morning, hopefully the visits to her Doctors over the last few days will result in the correct mix as well as timing for her medications.

Our new family member Sophie is such a sweetie and she gets along very well with Herbie & Zipper Dude. I will post a video here as soon as I get one that will not make everyone seasick!

Projects are in the works today. I have been planning on working on them daily and it seems that the day gets filled before I get anything done on them... Not today by cracky!!

I have my Master-Hooper out and the first layer of stabilizer laying in it all ready for the throws I'm embroidering. I put a second layer of the clear water soluble stabilizer on the top to help keep the threads above the fabric. It works great and seems to give the embroideries a more professional look.

So on that note... 

Why don't you let me know if you are working on any projects for the holidays?

Looking to hear from you soon!

Things are coming together.... Thank you Lord

Sorry I haven't been posting much - Just been trying to get a few things out of the way.

Carol from San Francisco Stitch Company - One of my very favorite sources for embroidery designs, just helped me get back on my Yahoo group... I have such a love the groups/hate the site relationship with Yahoo I can't believe it!! Thank you Carol!

Have several Christmas gifts I'm working on and for reasons of Ooakdolly/Santa Security, I am not allowed to disclose the nature of these projects as they are classified as Top Secret!

Still have to go get my drivers license renewed... hopefully soon before the snowballs start flying - have to go over a pass that has some pretty winding areas that are really bad in icy or snowy weather, have gathered all pertinent documents - Oregon require all sorts of documents ie; birth certificate, marriage licence, divorce decree, social security card, mail to you at your current address, your old license, and I've got my passport (expired) that I'm taking along too just in case. I need to be prepared because I do not like to make that trip over to our county seat any more than I have to. 

I am also trying to learn video editing on a simple scale so I can add a cute video of our animals playing. Hopefully soon, but have too many irons in the fire at the moment.

'Talk to you soon' 

God bless your days!!
