TUSAL on a bleary bleak Tuesday


I don't even know how I remembered this but here it is.  My before and after pics of April stitching.  If you notice a lot of pink in there, that would be the Bed of Roses that I almost stitched twice with the help of my little friend. The faerie put a spell on him so I could finish.


 
Before

After


I'm just going to have to stop.  Still trying to get the hang of my new blogging system, but you get the idea.
Hugs & happy stitching!

To all my blogging friends

We've got power, but not sure how long it will last. There are so many emails from you and others asking about us and it means so much. We are safe. My son and his family suffered the damage, but not to their lives.
It is so bad here and most of you have proabably seen things we haven't even seen here with absolutely no power and curfew going on. The radio has been on constantly, even now. We've worked during the day where we could (not me...they wouldn't let me), eaten whatever we could and read by the light of lamps until we got sleepy.  It has been cool so don't really miss the air, but oh how I miss hot water.  But you won't hear me complain.
I did lose a dear friend and know many who lost friends or loved ones
I've missed hearing you all talk and seeing your pics, but I will catch back up really soon.
God bless you for trying to contact me and for those who called on the cell phone; those who prayed and sent good thoughts.  Please please continue,  There are so many hurting people here who lost everthing and loved ones and one family their children.  So many many stories.
But just wanted to check in and let you know I'm ok and all of my family.
love,
Babs
