Thermalgal’s Temperate Mumblings

I know I’ve been bad

I haven’t written to my blog since Sat. But not much has been happening here. I’ve been off work (yeah for vacations!) and working frantically on some last minute Christmas gifts. I had too many planned so I had to delay some until after Christmas since I won’t be seeing my family until New Year’s Day, tomorrow. Sometime this weekend I’ll post stage 2 of the gifts.I tried to go to a LNS yesterday with a friend. We got there, opened the door and got screamed at. The lady scream, “We’re closed for Inventory,” in such a way that we just shut the door and ran. Needlewoman East will now be known as NastyWoman East from now on. They were too far away and mostly Needlepoint anyways, and that they have this big attitude toward cross stitchers. So we ended up at a real LNS, The Hang-up. The lady is super nice, I found what I wanted and she always remembers me. Can’t beat that. I should go there more often and buy stuff. She is only ten minutes from work. Gotta support the LNS to keep her in business. I just wish the store was bigger. It is half LNS, half frame shop. I got TW’s Wedding Sampler framed there and she did a great job. Wish I could afford to have all my stuff professionally framed.
