BEFORE & AFTER stitching for 3 1/2 hours
This week is the stitchathon at Cross stitch crazy but I'm not participating. There are too many ladies that think this is a diehard contest and if you don't stitch 1000 stitches or more a day then your nobody. I used to participate to see how many I could stitch, NOT to beat everyone on the planet then laugh. I'll probably stitch more tonight.
I fixed left over chinese food for supper last night, don't know what is for dinner tonight.
I was playing around with Amtrak time table, $152 round trip to go from Boston to Utica, NY plus it takes 10 hours. No wonder people don't take the train, it's longer than it is to drive. $648 to fly from Manchester NH to Albany.
Then I played around with another map. Picked out a driving route from home to Kennebunkport Maine. There's a Popeys's chicken place at a rest stop on I95. That would be good for a day's enterntainment.
Everyone needs to run over to Helga Mandl's Yahoo group and sign up for her new SAL. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wXSw/ The chart will be released on May 20 and it will be a set of 4 season charts. Everyone needs to over load her board like everyone does the SanMan board and snatch and run with the patterns.
35.2 at 3PM, it's hot.

heat gettin' to ya hon? lol I don't participate either...it seems to take me longer to count than it does to stitch (((Hugs))) We're half way to June!!!!
Wow that IS a lot of progress!
I count time not stitches in SATs. That's pretty easy and it keeps me in my stitching chair a bit longer each session!
Yikes that's an expensive train. I guess I've only ever done in off peak season?
Great progress.
Think of all the stitching you could get done on the train:>
I'll have to see if I can get into the HM group on another computer (can't from work, and since that's the only working computer I have at the moment...)
I participate in the SAT's because it pushes me to stitch more. I never 'win' but that's okay. I do find the SAT thing way too competitive anymore.
