Scuse the fluffy slippers who wanted in on the action!
Life Outside the Washing Basket
Software....and stitches..reflecting on life's changes as we go along. It started with my OU journey, but the blog and I have evolved over time, to become something more - right now it's friendship and cross stitch, tomorrow - who knows?

BFF SAL 24 - filling the gaps
Got all the other bits done besides the mouse, I have dispensation to finish the remaining cross stitch off camera.
Check out my BFF's update here, we spent a pleasant evening anticipating the next day for my BFF as she planned for her last day at work. As I'm younger by a small period, we'd always have been retiring at different times, but I'm excited to watch as she takes these next steps.

BFF SAL 24 - mousey
All mouse related stitches this week, although we didn't stitch as long because we played nice looking at new patterns, my BFF's blog here will tell you more about that though.

BFF SAL 24 - a slow night
Hubby made me a coffee part way through tonight, and my BFF and I talked about our future retirement plans. So there was a little bit of pink added but nothing else this week. 3 out of the 5 flowers are done so it feels like some progress at least.

BFF SAL 24 - squeaking through
I have to admit I was feeling frustrated this week, didn't feel like I made too much progress, and my BFF is miles ahead. You can judge for yourself.

BFF SAL 24 - all good stuff
A little bit of mouse. A decent bit of flowers. And a little bit of green stems.
Quite happy with that progress this week, approaching the backstitch in 2 or 3 more sessions time. (I think my BFF's going to get there before me)

BFF SAL 24 - owt but the mouse
Putting off the bitty nature of the mouse again. This week there was lots of pink and a bit of green stalks. I am actually quite enjoying this, I promise.
