If you have been reading my blog for any amount of time…you know that I am a baseball junkie. Even though I love my hometown San Diego Padres, I will watch any team, any time, any place, any where, any game…just so long as its baseball!

I get some of my best stitching done listening to the crack of bat and the ball hitting the catchers mitt. The season is young and already we have seen shutouts, blowouts and ooh so much more! If the rest of the baseball season is anything like the last few days, it will be a great summer.

I have been working up a storm between stitching, writing stitch guides, proofing for the magazine and stitching and stitching…ooh did I say stitching? For all those that asked, I  hope to be able to get back to Leigh’s Russian Santa next week. I just have to make my deadlines before I can stitch what I want to. Yes I know what I said a few weeks ago that I would commit time every day out of my stitching time to something for me, but market is quickly approaching…that means finalizing the thread useage and getting all the threads, beads and accoutrements ordered and purchased. Sometimes it means cutting thread lengths or packaging a few beads.

But for today, and just today I am headed to The Cottage for breakfast, a little thread shopping and a baseball game later at night. I have had season tickets for years and I did not renew this year as my stitching keeps getting in the way. I believe that they are trying to woo me back as this game is by invitation in one of the suites…so how can I say no?

This picture was taken before AlleyCat had visited the vets and prior to sans fur. Saturday morning we head to the vets to have more stitches removed. My poor silly girl…

and until next time…keep on stitching
