August update

August just zipped by for me this year and I can't believe that I never published a post during the month.

There were several reasons for that though, we are having computer issues in that our computer is too old and can't support the newer programmes that are being used. Although I do blog most of the time using the iPad when I take photos with the camera which does give better results, I do then like to download the photos through the computer. Technology is a wonderful thing until it isn't working for you and then, well you will all know the feeling.

August is always a tough month for me as it is the month that I lost my dad and this year it was the 20th anniversary of that event. I also happen to be the age right now that he was when he passed and I have found this year in particular much harder.

Waihi Beach

Hubby and I checked out Waihi Beach at the beginning of August as he had never been there before. The township has changed quite a bit since the last time I stayed there which is over 30 years now.
Funny how some places change more than others.

I also started a new job in August, although it is part time it is having quite a big impact as you can imagine. Stitching time isn't happening as much as before and yes, I miss it. I do have more to share but that will be in a future post.

So until then, happy stitching everyone.
