Saturday

I got up my usual time and went for a walk. I had said - for the Asylum Lake group - that I'd print off some of the brochures and put them out. I took them to two entrances today and will do the third on Monday when I go. I printed them at home and though there wasn't a lot of colour on them, the colour ink cartridge has depleted A LOT. Yikes. It's not cheap. I'm hoping I can print off a few more to get out to the third entrance. 

I had a bit of a walk, dropped some packages at the post office, filled the car (now I'm broke) and then headed home again. I'd like to say that I was really productive, but I wasn't. I did get some things listed - a plus - a couple things sorted - another plus - and then did a whole bunch of...well, not a lot. I did do some stitching. I haven't picked up the stitching in a while, but I wanted to do something, and the craft room wasn't really calling to me. All-in-all, rather a lazy Saturday. Isn't that what they should be? 



I'm on the Beaver's tail. I really want to keep working on this. Darn, getting older. I like stitching in natural light, but only when it's good, otherwise I struggle with my eyesight now. When I was younger, sigh, I could stitch on really small holes. Not anymore! At least I can see enough to stitch a bit. I am looking at doing some embroidery, where I don't have to stitch in holes lol. 

Hope you're having a good weekend!

  1. I haven't done any cross stitch in ages. Totally agree about needing really good light. It makes it so much easier.

    1. I find it harder now that my eyesight has changed, but I enjoy doing it and am trying to be productive!

  2. It sounds like a busy Saturday to me and you were quite productive. In any case, weekends are supposed to be for relaxing and taking it easy. :)

  3. Printer ink is very expensive. I've been putting off buying for my printer and using the library at 15-20 cents when needed.

    1. It is very expensive! I think I'm going to look into the cost of printing elsewhere.

    1. I definitely find it easier with bright natural light, especially when I have to thread the tiny needles lol
