 This morning I was up at 7:30 am. it felt good to sleep for 11 hours! Patrick is still jet lagged and will probably hit the hay soon. 

I got laundry going and then went to work on my video for my bead work. I was having trouble working on it. While I was working on it, Sharon called. She let me know she was doing okay but having trouble finding everything. One of her friends bought her the hoop she needed to do embroidery on her machine because she couldn't find hers. They put a lot of ...

Today I enjoyed being able to do as I pleased while Patrick went golfing. I did get laundry going and cleaned up the kitchen with emptying the dishwasher. 

Then I sat and worked on my Flosstube video. I tried to do one on a new program, but it didn't work. The sound and the "mouth" where not working together. I hate it when there is a delay. So, instead I re-did the video and posted it on Youtube. I couldn't get it to load on my computer, so I loaded it from my phone. That took a good ...

 This morning I woke with a headache - that pretty much lasted all day. First things first. I pulled all my clothes out of my dresser and boxed them up. I took my jewelry off the top shelf of my cabinet (dresser). Then I got to work on my laundry sense all my clothes are downstairs. I'm almost done with laundry. 

Patrick went golfing again today. They decided to go a little later. I wasn't in the best of moods, which meant I watched TV (Perry Mason - the older versions). I decided to get a FlossTube done today.  I ...

 This morning Patrick was up and ready to go. He was golfing today. After he left, I got busy with laundry and then decided to do a video on my beading. As it went, I was looking around the house for things that will work while I video myself working on my beading. It was some set up! 

At first I tried it with my camera, but I couldn't get it to zoom in where I wanted it. So, I put my phone between the 2 rulers. It worked out good. I realized after that I needed to turn ...

 This morning was Patrick's golf day. Man was it cold this morning! He said he did pretty good after he warmed up. lol 

While he was gone, I made a couple phone calls. Had to call Judy H. who is a QOV member who works out of Olympia. She knew Bev, so had to let her know. She did find out just before I called. Then Debbie called telling me how her day started out - and got worse as the day went on. 

I then sat down and did my Flosstube on YouTube. I put all my recent projects ...

Have you heard of Flosstube? Do you know any Flosstubers? 

After my weekend away at the New Zealand Cross Stitch Christchurch Retreat, I can now say that I know some Flosstubers.  

Flosstubers are people who make YouTube videos about cross stitch! I guess it's the modern version of blogging and I'm still operating in the dark ages.  

But after watching a few Flosstube videos, I think I still prefer blogs for two reasons.  

Firstly, because I use my blog as a permanent record of what I've made.  I can send people links to certain pages or posts ...

 I was lucky to get about 4 hours sleep last night. My neck and shoulder are in major pain. I had Patrick put a hot and cold pack on it, but it's really not helping. I took a "tension" pill that isn't working either. So, I spent the day watching some shows that I had taped. Patrick went golfing. 

I haven't felt like doing anything all day. My shoulder is killing me. Doesn't like my moving around. AND it's my left side, so being left handed doesn't help. 

I did do my FlossTube today ...

This morning I was up and getting ready for Sandy to come over. We had planned to do out beading again. She arrived and I gave her a lot of stuff I had for her, plus some chocolates from Escanaba.
