No Control

So, on Saturday I went down to my cross stitch store to pick up some charts and stuff I had ordered at the Superbowl party. That was all I was going to do...but in the morning my sister Mary told me to look at this chart for a Whitman Candy tin - too cute. I had to look for that. That was it. On Friday night, my friend Teri showed me the chart for the Quaker Turtles - BEYOND CUTE and I had to have it. Now, it's 2 things. Then in looking for that, I saw a cute scissor fob and scissor holder that I just had to have. The bottom line is, I have no control. I'm a stash-a-holic and I need help. LOL
Made progress on my 2 things I'm trying to get done. Will start the back stitching on the 1 tonite. I hope to have it done by Wednesday so I can give to my friend to take the framer. He is the best - Patrick I love you. You give something to him to get framed, and it is done in 1 week. I'm hoping to go one Saturday here soon to have something - re-framed. I have a pictures from my Dad. When ever he was transferred for his job, they game him pictures of the city. I gave Sarah the 2 I had for NYC - since she lives there. But I also have 2 for Boston in nice frames. I going to re-use one of the frames for a print I have. I just have to get down to Patricks and give it to him. Also have a picture/frame that was my Mom's that over the years has gotten kinda beat up. I'm hoping he can fix the frame - color the dings and put a new hanger on it.
Made progress in the house this weekend. Finally have the TV in the living room on it's new stand - thanks to my son Jimmy who came over and helped me re-connect everything. Brought a new TV for my bedroom with a sleep timer which I hooked up all by my self!! Pat me on the back. Then I'll put the TV that was there in the basement with the VCR. Slowly but surely things are getting done.
