Life Update as Summer Comes to a Close

I haven’t kept up with my end-of-month stitching updates as I’d hoped for the past couple of months. While I work to sort out projects for status updates, I figured I’d do some life ones too. It’s been quite a while since I’ve had a non-stitchy blog post. 🙂 Max is a few days away […]

May 1, 2023May 1, 2023 1 Comment

Considering how wild April was around here… I got quite a bit done on my projects! I’m happy. April’s short-short version, in no order of priority, are: And onto the April stitchy updates. The theme of this month was “frogging and move forward.” Oh, so much miscounting that had to be fixed to get anywhere. […]

I hope if you’re reading this that you’re doing well, and that your loved ones are doing well too. Things here are pretty good. We have a few friends we’re worried about, who are dealing with positive […]

Life in general catch-up

Melissa
October 11, 2010March 30, 2025 No Comments

It’s been a wild few weeks around here.  Mostly good, I think.  Although the impending holiday craziness is already starting to creep in, and that has me worried. The really really good news: Both Erich and Matt are working. Erich has found an IT job with a metro-Boston hospital, and so far is enjoying it. He […]

Garden Sampler Update

Melissa
August 29, 2010March 30, 2025 No Comments

Today was a very stitch-filled day, completely focused on Garden Sampler. I made great progress and I think that I might be able to get this completed tomorrow – or at the very latest on Monday.  I have a little text left, a bird in the lower corner, and then some fill-in flowers, and I’m done.

Hi, I'm Measi

about
(a/k/a Melissa)

I'm turning 50 in 2025, and exploring this new decade of my life with a refocus on blogging about my life - marriage, parenthood, being owned by cats, Paganism, cross stitching, journaling, books, and letter writing... and probably some other stuff along the way. Nothing monetized here - just old-fashioned personal blogging.
