I was kind of freaked out, but it's day two for me, and it's becoming less and less weird. Although, it's a time suck though. It's like there's a party in your house you never knew about, and you just opened the door to the party room...Lydia Kanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00484415427764822386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-83110561396106176052011-06-24T09:18:59.461-05:002011-06-24T09:18:59.461-05:00Nabokov is a genious! love the quotes, especially ...Nabokov is a genious! love the quotes, especially the first one is so powerful... your words are invisible Becky, but are there..waiting for the right moment to appear...and they glide everytime you share your heart with us!<br />Have a great weekend!OJ Gonzalez-Cazareshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02163055706274656012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-15056647378388031812011-06-24T08:29:13.202-05:002011-06-24T08:29:13.202-05:00Hi Grammie ~ Thanks so much for such kind words!

It's a wonderful tool, just think of all the creative ideas that will pop into your thoughts as you're stitching. But keep that notebook (or post-its) handy to jot them down immediately.<br />Love you dear friend,<br />CreativeGrammieCreative Grammiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14885925948310205770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-10642389582168788652011-06-23T23:38:32.372-05:002011-06-23T23:38:32.372-05:00Hi Sioux!

And they a...Your friend's words are very wise. And they are something I need to take to heart as well, especially when it comes to blogging. It can be a discouragement when you put your whole self into doing a blog post, and then hardly anyone comments on it, which makes me feel that no one is even reading it. But I've had to remember that I don't blog for others...I blog because I enjoy the writing process. So, it's something I'm actually doing for me, and if anyone else happens to read, then that's the gravy.<br /><br />I always used to enjoy counted cross-stitch, and I'm thinking of taking it up again. On my recent trip, I made my first-ever visit to Hobby Lobby (with my sis-in-law), and I discoverd a beautiful counted cross-stitch kit I want to do.<br /><br />Have a wonderful day.<br /><br />Love,<br />PattiPatti https://www.blogger.com/profile/12931836399684850729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-58204015478418720752011-06-23T13:33:47.989-05:002011-06-23T13:33:47.989-05:00Becky, thank you darling for always saying such ki...Becky, thank you darling for always saying such kind and thoughtful things when you stop by, you are just a sweetie!

As June said, you should be very proud of yourself for what you have done so far. My mum used to do lots of cross-stitch pictures, and I have them framed.

While you're waiting for the right moment (or the "write moment"), continue on - and you'll be reminded of other thoughts and stories you'll not want to omit.<br /><br />I'm proud of how much you've done so far!<br /><br />And my word verification today?
