Almost one year ago...

my dh and I

 took a road trip,

 to visit the nephew in Wisconsin,

with my dear sister and her dh.
(her dh is my dh's brother, confused yet?)

Boys in the front,

girls in the back.

As always,

I don't travel without my stitching.

I had just charted a little Halloween chart that I thought

would be something I could start and finish

on this road trip.

At that time,

I didn't really have a plan...

I had no idea that it was something that

I would be doing for 11 more months.

No idea at all it would turn into

a montly series,

a series to be named,

"Word Play".

I had no idea

it would consume my whole year

the way it has.

So,

 as I was laboring with counting and stitching

 in the back seat of the car,

fighting road bumps,

and

listening to my sister tell me

that she didn't know how I could do this in a car,

and that she would get a migrane in doing so...

she was playing with my ipad,

the ipad app

photo booth,

 to be exact...

hardly seems fair

that she's having fun in her corner of the car

and I'm slaving away,

working,
in my corner of the backseat...

In between her laughing/crying sessions

of her photo booth experiences,

she would comment that she didn't know how

 I could see to work on such tiny linen....

I told her it might be her glasses,

she should get some new ones...

or maybe

 her eyes are set a wee tad too far apart,
plastic surgery,
perhaps?

I told her to just squint real hard,

yea,

like that...

helps to see the linen better

if you squint...

tee hee hee

and

 now that my sister is probably going to kill me,

I present the final Word Play...

"SEPTEMBER WORD PLAY"

"THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!"

 for joining me on this year long journey,

it's been fun

 and I'm almost sad to see it end!

And visit my sister at www.piecesfrommyheart.net

and buy lots and lots of goodies from her,

pulease!!!!

 

Have a good day,

Brenda
