So it is now the day after Christmas and I am feeling a bit blue today. It was nice spending the day with at least part of our families. But I already miss having family around. My BIL, his soon-to-be fiancee, and my MIL came. My DB, his GF and our mom came over too. They could only stay for a few hours since the GFs had their own families to go visit.
I got an unexpected gift of cash yesterday and now I am trying to decide what to do with it. I could sign up for one the new Chatelaines. I've been debating between Castle Moyland or the Octopus Treasure Cave. I already have fabric in my stash that would work for both of them. Serengeti has also caught my attention but it won't be coming out until March. I'm not sure I want to wait that long. Plus I am not sure if I have fabric that would be big enough for it. I've also been thinking about the new Mirabilia Golden Girl Apples. I like that it is different and I have a thing for apple orchards. I have fabric that would work for it as well. I would only be able to buy one of the charts, so I not sure what to do.
I haven't done any stitching lately since I have been busy preparing for Christmas. I am feeling very run down today, so I think I am going to try to take it easy and stitch. A nap sounds really good right now too. I don't know if I am getting sick or if it is just post holiday exhaustion. Whatever it is, I hope it passes quickly.
Have a great day everyone!

Sometimes people do get the after Christmas blues. My hubby says it sets in on Christmas afternoon for him as we have a Christmas lunch. My advice to him was to get something to play with. It helps take your mind off it. I played with my new bead loom Christmas evening and haven't stopped since. Go get one of those charts to cheer yourself up. Happy stitching!
I'm sorry you're feeling blue, Shannon. :( I hope you're better today?
Hmm... decisions, decisions on the charts. Which one do you HAVE to have? ;)
