Welcome to ChitChat!

Good Tuesday morning everyone. Not a drop of snow on the ground and it's warming up. Today we will work on putting things into the shed. We decided to make our dinner on Christmas eve, baby back ribs, homemade cheesecake, and cut up veggies in dill dip. Today was my year anniversary on WW and I've lost 40.1 pounds and I've kept that off for 3 months now. My 2026 goal is to lose 10-12 pounds more to goal and then maintain it. I'm hoping when I go for wellness check in March that it's helped losing the weight. It's been quite a year, mostly ups, and a few downs, but all in all a satisfying year. Have a terrific Tuesday and enjoy life.

Today is Tuesday ……………………………………………… Good Morning, MJ 💕

so it turn out to be Alzheimer's she has so thats another reason i havent been on much

I still can't seem to catch it. I have tried several different patterns, watched videos to help hype me up but I seem to get maybe one row done and then I get frustrated and quit, these are not hard patterns mostly just simple ornaments. I have been like this since I received my bifocals over a year ago and I was working full time then so I just didn't have time to pull everything out so i left it. I have tried everything but I just can't bring myself to do it.
I went back to crochet and loved it mostly because it doesn't take a lot of attention, maybe I am a crochet person in cross stitch clothing...lol.

I get my inspiration from all you amazing people

I am contemplating stitching the Stars and Stripes 1776. I have usually used 14 aida cloth. Is the 14 aida zweigert yorkshire similar to what I have been using? And exactly how does 2 over 1 work?

I got it framed this Christmas
