January 30, 2015 Update

First off, I would like to welcome all of my new followers that found me via Grow Your Blog!  Thank you for coming by, checking out my blog, and hitting that little button to keep following me.  I really do appreciate it.  
I am still slowly going through the list and have added quite a few blogs to my reading list.  I am trying to keep up and read the blogs every day, but the weekends may be a challenge.  So many people joined in on this event!  
On to the update!  
At home, I am currently bobbing away getting all my floss on bobbins.  I had to go to Michael's and Joanne's to get floss and I am still missing 1 color.  I will probably wait a week or so before trying again, or I will order online if neither store has it.  Oh, I could try Hobby Lobby, as one isn't too far away from me now.  (I love that store, but it is dangerous)!  I am trying to get 5 on bobbins per night, but I didn't get any done at all last night though.  So, once I have all of my floss on their bobbins, I will grid my fabric.  (Aida 18 count white).  Then I can start.  In case you don't know what chart I am talking about it is this one:
Lovely isn't it?  I am doing this for a co-worker as she loves giraffes.  The colors are so vibrant and amazing, I am sure I am going to love working on this one.

As for Ruh, as of yesterday, he looked like this:
 I have no idea why it won't turn... I am sorry about that.  For some reason they do that every once in awhile.  That is his left hand, it is coming along nicely.  I have stitched every day at lunch this week except for  Tuesday, (I took a nap at lunch cause I was tired).  
This weekend is dearest daughters 15th birthday.  We are taking her and two of her friends to the AOD con in San Francisco for the weekend.  It should be an interesting time.  I will take pictures and share.  We also bought tickets to go to WonderCon in April.  I am super excited for that one.  I am hoping to also talk my hubby into going to Disneyland why we are down in Anaheim for WonderCon.  I haven't said anything yet though.  
I think that is it for now.  See you all next week!
S.I.N.
