Wip-it Wednesday...

 ...it was an eventful week.

On Tuesday, we flew to Los Angeles to attend the funeral of my mother's oldest sister. It was the first time that I was on an airplane since before the pandemic. (The Husband has flown a couple of times since then, so it wasn't new to him.) It was an overnight trip as we still haven't found a cat-sitter for our kitties. It was a nice service and we spent time afterwards catching up with relatives we haven't seen in a while.

I queued up last week's Wednesday post so I wouldn't miss it. I'm trying hard to post at least a couple of times a week,  so this was one way of accomplishing that.

On Monday, the window company replaced our last window for the remodel. We still have to get the wall repaired under the window, and we have people scoping out that work today.

I've been working primarily on the More Beach cross stitch piece:

It's going a little slow because I'm not always working on it in the studio. The weather has been very cold and it's freezing in the studio. It's too expensive to run a space heater in there, as I discovered a couple of months ago. (!?$%) I've been working on the piece in the main house, but I don't have a good magnifying set up in there.
