MY COLLECTION OF CHARTS

.........and many more!

MY COLLECTION OF THREADS

....some of the many I have in my humongous stash...

3 days........

and still no X....

WHAT HAPPENED TODAY?

I rearranged the furnitures at our living hall. We have more space in front of the TV now. We shifted the coffee table.

I am supposed to start stitching this weekend. That was my resolution last Friday. I managed to rummage through Aniza's package. Flip some XS mags but yet to lift my fingers to hold a needle.

Sigh!

KARATE KID VS STITCHING

...and karate kid won. There goes my stitching once again....Nevertheless, the movie was excellent. Jaden Smith is just sooo cute!

JUMP START ON MY STITCHING

..............still in gear 1.....

my beloved XS

HELLO.................

Mt stitching mood has been in the low for almost 2 years....shame..shame...I try not to look at my stash to avoid feling guilty. I spent so much money on them...emmm. So much had happened in 2 years. I changed job, moved house, transferred to another department (therefore changed boss...)...wahhh seeems so much to update.

Later la...........

I AM BACK!!!!

Wow! It has been a very-very long hibernation. I bet nobody visit my blog anymore. I have neglected this blog for so long, nearly as long as my stitching slump.

I was frustrated with my new job to say the least. I had no chemistry with my boss. She was to bossy to my liking. Anyway that had passed. I have been transferred to a new department, different boss but same big boss. I am now doing the same thing I used to do in my previous company; which I do not mind. I love numbers and now I am back with them. It feels good to see my numbers reconciled...he he he..

Stitching wise, no progress thus far except that I had all my stitched pieces framed up at Tammy's. I love their handywork - neat & tidy. I 'll have to post the pictures.

I have left the blogging world fo so long that I have forgotten on how to upload pictures. Let me try that tonight at home.

I hope to write more, at least a line or two a day to lift up my stitching spirit. I need to get reading glasses to start my stitching again. That's it - why I have not been stitching lately. My vision has not been that good especially my right since after that eye operation I had in 2006.

Adios, will write again tomorrow!

A TURN IN MY LIFE

I finally tendered my resignation on 29/11/2006. So that was the big day mentioned in my earlier post. My boss wasn't suprised. I guess he could see it coming as verbal confrontation has become almost a daily affair between the two of us. What suprised him was that I was hired by Petronas; one of the best employer in Malaysia. A lot of people said that I was really lucky to land a job there and with a salary higher than what I earned in my then current workplace. Everyday I thank Allah for all his blessings. At the age nearing 40; I got a job at my dream company. Although I am now based in KLCC further away from home, I am truly happy. I can see that life will change for the better in years to come. Hubby was 100 percent behind me; supporting me all the way. I hope it's not too late for me to climb the corporate ladder. Better late than never so they say.

On the stitching front, I have not finished my alphabet sampler as I was supposed to. I was in stitching slump in the midst of the excitement of changing jobs. I have just continued stitching my alphabet sampler and started on my scissor fob for an exchange. A long absence from stitching has made me a little careless in counting that I had to do more frogging than stitching last night!

My third son has started primary school. I used to ferry the kids to & fro school but I can't now as I have to leave home early in the morning to get to the office in time. They have to go to school by bus. luckily the children seem to understand that Mak has to go to work early. My little princess has also started kindie. She loved it! We had no problem leaving her at the kindergarden on her first day. I was suprised as she can be very shy at times.

So that's what has been going on in my life. I hope to be able to post more often especially on the progress of my forever increasing number of WIPs!
