Light at the end of the tunnel!

Hello!

I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! No, not a train...but I'm nearing the completion of Stoney Creek's Winter Wonderland. Yes, I have some pictures. You see the arch at the top? ...that's what shows me the end is near!





The second picture shows the village before I rolled it up on my frame. It's going quickly now because there's a lot of half stitches...and then a whole bunch of navy blue for the night sky. So my goal is to finish this puppy up before Thanksgiving...that should be easy....I hope, I hope, I hope!

After I finish this project, I will go back to my Big Zipper since the next installment arrived in my mailbox this week. I'm thinking about ordering some stuff from the Stitching Bits and Bobs sale this week. Stay tuned on that!

Diet-wise: 57.5 pounds! I have people asking me how I'm doing it. I tell them 1st Personal Diet. So then the next time I see them, I ask if they signed up. I get the look...it's TOO expensive! Hello! If you are watching a fat lady literally melt in front of you, wouldn't you be willing to pay to have it yourself? This diet costs $249 for 12 weeks. That is not any worse than signing up for Weight Watchers or my ex-bestfriend Jenny Craig. I spent a ton of money on Jenny's food in the past. Now I'm eating fresh food from the grocery store and this diet is working. And I have all the confidence in the world that I will keep it off once I reach my goal.

OK...I'm climbing down from my soapbox...thanks for listening!
