News from the frontline…

In the war against ennui, we have another casualty. Yes, I am bored.

The winter doldrums have hit hard folks. I’m not stitching, I’m eating like a pig and I’m not exercising at all. Just feeling a bit blah. Everything feels like hard work. I like to think we have all had these moments (it can’t just be me, surely).

You will wonder why I’m feeling so blah, when you see the piece I am stitching (when I am stitching, that is) - a class piece designed by Janie Hubble of The Cat’s Whiskers, this piece has Pizazz! Here are some thumbs of my progress so far…




These doldrums are a temporary thing, I’ll bounce back soon - my natural temperament is unbelievably cheery.  Annoyingly so, in some cases.  Till next time, friends.

  3. You’ll perk up soon, I’m sure! I get dumpy every once in a while and I hate it… I,too, am annoyingly cheerful :)

  5. Mmmm, winter seems to do that to you. I have also been feeling a little like that the last few days, since the weather became a quite colder. I’m going to go out all day Saturday and see if that makes a change.

    Lovely stitching!

  10. I know those days. It’s sad when they hit in the summer and you can’t blame it on winter. Hope you perk up soon!

  11. Looks like a piece that could perk you up. Maybe you just need to start a new project or at least plan one, maybe a trip to buy some stash. That always puts me in a good mood. CJ
