Fall Back

A local radio station did a survey of what people planned to do with their extra hour this weekend. I was going to stitch (not one of the categories), but I wound up napping instead (about 19% of respondents said they'd sleep) since I seem to be coming down with either a cold or a sinus infection. I worked some on Elizabeth Sheffield this week. The "strawberry" band is all over-one; the blue line beneath it is composed of eyelet stitches. I'm enjoying the heck out of this (as well as Mary Western).



The three buns decided they'd sleep, rather than watch a movie (13% of the radio listeners were going to watch a movie). Here are Peaches and Pink curled up for a nap--Elvis is just out of camera range, napping on the rug.


Happy week ahead!

When in doubt take a nap, that's the way of the bun. Hope you feel better soon.

Elizabeth looks great! And hey, sleeping is always a good thing. I hope the extra bit of sleep helps your body ward off the sinus/cold germs!

Your wip is looking great. I just love the colors in this.

Love the photo of the bunnies. :) Looks like they have the right idea for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Melissa said...

OOooooh, you got ES too! I got it and admired it and put it on my "one day" pile due to all that over one! So I am so pleased to see you stitch this and also enjoy seeing the bright colours!

I stitched. I watched a movie. I napped. Can't really say which one counts as my extra hour!

RG said...

Napped - all of us.

Pink and Peaches look ready for the rains!!!

Annemarie said...

Elizabeth Sheffield is gorgeous! Where do you find these samplers?

I would have slept away that extra hour if my son's biological clock hadn't woken him (and me) up...

Ugh - the sickies -- they're visiting us too and outdoing their stay. Hope they leave soon and your house too!!

I'd intended to sleep, but forgot all about the time change and wound up waking at 5 am, feeding the chickens, checking my mail, and then realizing how early it was. So I made a big breakfast for the whole family (did that enter into the percentages at all?).

Michelle said...

I think I ended up sleeping too. Lovely WIP - the colors are stunning, and that over one band really makes it look delicate.

Kylie said...

Oh your bunnies are so adorable... My bunnies also prefer to take a nap on their rabbit hutch that play around the house. No wonder they gotten so big already all they do is to eat and sleep no more play time for them especially during winter.
