I tried no excuses

I did. But there are just things in life that can consume one's time. I have been meaning to post this a few days ago but my camera can no longer upload images for some strange reason onto my computer so I had to figure out what I could do. I almost paid for an answer online and then thought better of it. While doing my observation school hours, I heard my cooperating teacher, Mrs. Rodriguez, talk about a thumb drive and a pop went into my head that shouted "Card Reader!"  I went to Radio Shack on Saturday to pick it up (sorry Staples, you were not on the way to grocery shopping) and I finally uploaded the pictures. Excitement!
So back to no excuses. I can't do it all. I try real hard to every day. What I get done is nothing short of those precious blessings from above. Housework, family, children, work and graduate school. Know what I mean. CONSUMING. Although, I did give myself a break on April 1. I went to the Martha Stewart Stitchfest to celebrate her newest book.



It was a great night with wine and hors d'oeuvers that were so delicious. And the wonderful examples of stitch projects that are displayed beautifully throughout the book were at her offices where the Stitchfest was held.

I made acquaintances. We all stitched together!

Beautiful Singers! A glass of wine, take a sip, sew a stitch. Me and the machine (not in the pic here though, silly me) humming happily.

Martha, I couldn't snap that button fast enough. Elusive Martha.

Raffles to enter. A Singer 7470 Computerized model to win among other new models.

Stencil on fabric demo.

And me leaving full of food and wine.I had a blast!
