Loads of great progress Ewa!! Love the Greek Mandala!! Those colours are so pretty!!You have been very busy! Keep up with the weight lose! Try doing lots of stairs! I find that since I live in a hilly area, that I have to boot it up hills daily to the bus stop, then I do about 100 stairs every morning up an escalator and although I would like to be 5 pounds lighter, it keeps me in shape!!
Girlie!!!!!! You've been a busy bee and these look amazing!! College is growing by leaps and bounds. Your folks are going to be flabbergasted when they see it. :D
OMG, you have some stunning projekts! I´m a huge Mario and Lord of the rings fan, looking forvard to seeing your progress!!
Hugs, Heidi

It is a cold, wet, dark, windy, generally dreary day here in California. Of course this is perfect stitching weather. I've got a pork butt marinating in the fridge (to be turned into home-made pulled pork in a few hours) and tonight I'm going to go see "One for the Money" with my mom. So not complaining and not too bad.
Also, with Boyfriend's steady and unfailing support, I'm losing weight! On that front, Mangogirl (Caitlin) from Naughts & Cross Stitches and I are forming a little supportive Internet walking club. We're going to be walking and tracking together, as a motivating factor for each other. So yay to that as well! Super excited!
Now for the WIPocalypse. *WARNING* Picture heavy! (especially since I like before and afters)

WHEW! Long post! I'm really liking this WIPocalypse! It's fun to focus on a few projects and try to get as much done as possible. I'm going to keep going with Middle Earth until the page is done, and then I'll see what project Boyfriend chooses next for me to work on. Meanwhile, I'll keep working on Greek Mandala as that is REALLY motivating since I see progress a lot easier. And, of course, while at Boyfriend's, College comes out!
Now I'm off to shower and then stitch the day away until movie time. Have a great day, everyone!
