Trying to get back into it

Haven't touched the cross stitch since it was signed, thinking of knitting - have been looking at plently of patterns for inspiration. But a bit distracted , hubby had a knee operation this week ,so have been ferrying him around to the physio etc.

Have had the week off , not looking forward to going back to work even if it is for
2 and half days, then off again to 5/1. Need to pick something up my mood is down.
Hubby had to quit his job so could get his knee sorted, so even if I have said to myself not worrying about being down to one income till after Christmas , think it's playing on my mind.

Did check out the new Patons Pattern books in Spotlight this week , very nice.

Weight Lose 5.5kgs - yay

Autographed

Didn't quite complete it, but it is signed (even if it was through an uncompleted bit). A great day had by both father and daughter at the last ever V8 round at Oran Park. A track that was great for spectators and drivers alike. Dad survived getting dragged around all day on a signature hunt, even with a torn knee cartilage.

Now to find the motivation to finish

3.5 kgs gone and counting

Still Stitching

Been gone awhile getting closer to finishing cross stitch but won't meet weekend deadline, so it will have to be signed unfinished. Keep forgetting to charge camera batteries to take a picture for an update, it will explain where I've been.

And the other thing I was meant to be tracking here, my weight lose. 2.6 kgs in 4 weeks, so slowly but surely.

Received Interweave Knits today, was hoping for something to inspire, that I can knit
when I've lost another 20kgs or so. Nothing takes my eye, like the shorter length of things (being only 149cm tall) but they don't seem to be very figure flattering.
