It's finally starting to get colder and wetter here in FL . . .

I was just chatting with a FB friend today who lives in England. She was reminding me just how fortunate I am to live in "Sunny Florida" instead of England where the weather is "CRAP"! It's now raining outside and is starting to feel like fall.

I have been inspired this past week to get back on track with my cross-stitching, blogging and whatever else gets me out of my bubble. I even made it my LNS on Saturday for the sit-and-stitch. Yay! My mom was watching my daughter so I didn't have to worry about her running around the store trying to touch everything. So NOT the place for little kids. 

My LNS owner has a preview chart from one of her fave designers that we are all stitching up so the designer can pick one for the cover. I'm not sure if I should mention the designer so mum's the word for now, but I will take pics and post when I've confirmed I can. 

I also got SUPER adventurous and purchased a knitting project. I have not knitted a thing since I was 11 (now 32) and don't know what possessed me, but it is soo much fun, and I remembered the basics quite quickly. Now I just have to learn things I never worried about as a kid.  I am knitting leg warmers. Don't quite need them in FL, but I love them and they're fairly easy for something to get back into.

I also signed up for a super crazy challenge - not quite sure why - but I read about it on another persons blog and thought it sounded fun. Here's the information/blog post "Crazy January Challenge" in case anyone else is interested. And here's the original blog where I first learned of it.

I have many of my finished project pictures up on my page over at The Stitchers Village but I have yet to post any on my blog. I will eventually.
Well I guess that's all for now.

Oh - I went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 - and it was AWESOME!
So here's yet another cool movie poster and a picture of my daughter drinking a ButterBeer (So Yummy).
