Thursdays are my day off each week since Sundays are a work day. I slept in a little and then worked around the house on projects. My jeep was at the shop for new brakes and rotors in the front. A nice $200 unexpected bill this month. A small price to pay for being able to stop, I suppose. My little red jeep is 9 and 1/2 years old. It was my first car purchase and it has served me very well.

At one time, I had five different cross-stitch projects going. And I never finished any of them. Not one. And I’ve done that with many other things as well. So, as you can see I sometimes have trouble fini……

Time to sign out. Tomorrow is really hectic at work. I need to get ready to be out of the office for basically 9 days and that always means lots of loose ends to tie up before I can go.
