Bless This Home Sweet Home
A prayer for my new home. By Glendon Place. This was my first experience stitching with Anchor floss and I must say I like the coverage better than what I get with DMC.

Another month gone
And still my house isn't done. We were going to settle on March 31, but discovered last week that the electric company filed my application for service away and didn't give it another thought until I called to see when that was scheduled to be done. So now we have to wait for a permit from the state to run the line under the road. Which should have been applied for a month ago, but since it wasn't I'll have to wait yet another month.
Trying to look on the bright side... my son has decided to go to St. John's College. An easy decision for him since it was the only place that would have him. But that's actually a good thing, since he hadn't considered it before being rejected from his college of choice and the state university and I think it will be a much better place for him. Anyway, the bright side, I'll be able to pay his deposit right away since I now have even more time to save for settlement.
On the stitching front, I think I've finished more projects since I've been "homeless" than I have in all my other years of stitching combined. Much easier to do when you have to concentrate on one thing at a time.
