I've been searching my mind

It's what happens when I've been gone from my blog for a while.  Early this week I was thinking that I was going to post again, but I let myself all worried about what I should write.  Sometimes a catch-up post feels too overwhelming.  And to tell the truth, I became very bored with everything.  So then I don't write anything at all.

Well, what happened this morning to change my mind?  A huge inspirational moment.

I found stitchy underwear in my house!

I was in the kids' bathroom this morning.  I shut the door and lo and behold these underpants were behind the door and on the floor.  I blinked a couple of times thinking, "Hey, that looks like something I would stitch.  What the....?  It's underwear!"

Now I don't know who these belong to.  Maybe John's girlfriend, who was here for several days.  Or maybe they belong to Colleen and in that case I'm wondering she if doesn't harbor some secret desire to do some needlework.  Maybe I'll pursue that...tell her that this how I know she secretly wants to stitch and drink tea and watch several episodes of Judge Judy with her mother. 

But more importantly, I thought - Finally!  I have something post-worthy!

(I actually did have second thoughts about posting this, only partly because my daughter seems to be following my blog now and I was thinking that she might get embarrassed.  But then I decided that anything left on the bathroom floor is fair game.  And now maybe my bathroom floor will be less....cluttered.)

Well, in my time away from my blog, I missed posting the January Stitching Bloggers Question and I didn't add a December favorites page.  I can't make any promises about the Question this month, and since I was away so much in December, I probably won't write a favorites page, either. I hope to get back into the swing of that soon, because I enjoyed doing it.  


Off to watch the Pitt game.  Yes - the coachless Pitt football team.  I'm too sad about that.  


Have a nice weekend everyone!
