Wandering...

So, I'm in another city again... Well, town anyway... Visiting friend for Easter... The bunny found me and everything...

Exams are in less then two weeks now... I am nervous as all get out... Why they torture students this way, I will never know...

I am going back to Ontario two weeks from yesterday... Visiting my family... I miss my family very much... And then I'll be back to Newfoundland for work on May 1st... Probably won't see them again for about 8 months then... Probably not until Christmas... The choices one must make...

However, when I'm back in my own bedroom, I will once again be surrounded by a puzzle... What cross-stitch kits am I gonna bring back with me for the summer? Four whole months of not having to study or do homework... I will have to have some serious thought on this...

Finished March 14th, 2010...


Progress as of March 27th, 2010...
Finals are soon... Haven't had time to do anything on it...

Weekend Plans...

Not going anywhere... Not doing any studying... I am pulling out my stitching and getting in some good quality time with my needle... I suddenly find myself without work this weekend, due to a switched shift... So, from Friday at around 5pm until Sunday evening expect for me to be peeking at a chart and highlighting and swearing at sparkly thread... I am having my own personal stitch-a-long dammit...

I have gotten some more done on the butterfly montage since I last posted... I'm almost finished the first one, just the pink and sparkly to go... Then to do some greenery and figure out which pretty butterfly to do next...

WoooooooooooHoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

"Butterfly Scene" designed by Lori Turosey... Creative Accents... Dimensions... As of March 5th. 2010...

I finally did some cross-stitch done!!!! Woot woot!!! And it has some sparkle too... Sooooooo happy...

Fail...

*jumps up and down on school notes*... Evil!!!!!!

Goals For The Month Of January 2010...

1. Stitch something... Anything!!!

*glares at textbooks and notes piled around the room*... It's all your fault, dammit...

No Crafting and All School Makes Alanda Go "Something Something"...

"Go crazy? Don't mind if I do!!!!"

Three weeks into term and already I'm a basketcase... I can't really blame it all on the school... I always was a basketcase; school just combines that with a chronic lack of sleep and a super caffeinated physique... That and constantly listening to "How It's Made" on Discovery while doing homework... Well... You can see how I might not be the most sane person on the planet, right?

And right now they're describing how coffee is made...

I keep planning on doing some crafty goodness... But, I took all (most) of my charts back to Sarnia, where they will collect dust for the next three months... It's amazing how much stash a girl can collect in a place where there's really no good craft stores... I have access to a Wal-Mart and a small craft store in a mall... Neither of which has anything I currently want to stitch...

So, I have two projects here... Dimensions "Bless This Home", Designed by Angela Staehling, and Dimensions "Butterfly Scene", Designed by Lori Turosey...

I'm hoping I can get at least one of these done this term... My fingers are itching...

Oh look... They're showing something about a tornado now...
