first post of 2013

My first post of the year.  the pattern is from country 
cottage needleworks.  this was done on a light 
yellow linen. I have been in tenn. for a while,
but I still dont have a place to live.  It is really hard
 to stitch without most of my supplies.  I did receive
 some really nice gifts from people who know
 i like to cross stitch.  I will be finishing the piece

soon.    I will be catching up on my blogs.  I do visit,
 but I do not have the time to post comments on 
all of them.  The blogs do make me smile.  I hope
 to be settled in the up coming months.  The move was
 a difficult one.  I really like tenn. and I cant say
enough about how friendly all of the people are 

here. I hope everyone who got hit with the snow
 storm is doing well.  I know on long island
 there was over two feet of snow.
