SBQ and Random stuff

I am behind in this SBQ so here is last week's....I think anyway.....
Today’s SBQ was suggested by Heather and is:
How do you decide which stitching blogs are worth repeat and/or regular viewings? Are there certain things you look for in particular? Are there things you wish there were more of? Less of? Is your blog a good example of what you like to read?

I love blogs that are stitching related but also have a peek into the person's character and life.....does that make sense??? And of course the writing has to grab me......the only non stitching blog is my dear brother's and hopefully he won't mind the link! And I hope my blog and it's content is a good example of what other readers like.....

Now on to the random stuff..... First a picture of some roses that I cut from my front side yard. I wish I could say I had something to do with their beauty but roses seem to do well here in Vegas. I'm just amazed anything grows in what we have for soil here. But it does. These beauties were planted by the first homeowners and seem to do well all I do is cut down the bushes yearly and even with the pool construction last summer going right through them they still came back....
Today was a visit to my LNS with mom and she bought me a very early birthday present or presents....I'll post the pictures soon! It was basically stash I had ordered that had come in! And then to a craft fair which was fun but there was absolutely no cross stitching make that no stitching at all! Lots of glass, pottery and jewelry though! And mom got me a birthday present there as well! She's napping now before dinner allowing me the time to post this.... And I took a picture of a picture of one of my favorite wedding pics....I adored my dress! Here it is...

So I leave you with my favorite picture that a good friend took at the wedding.... my wedding albums are being worked on and I should have them soon! And I promise a stash post soon!
Oh and for all who asked the corset designs are from Dimple Designs. I put a link in my sidebar for those interested.
Oh and I forgot......my swing was just blown over in the winds we had! We were able to put it back together and it's perfect again.....nothing got bent or broken!!!
I am grateful for days off and LNS visits.....

I got Roses...........

I've been laying low and resting no migraine but just here.... I had a busy day at work on friday and saturday which is nothing out of the ordinary I'm used to it....I don't want to or won't write about it here. And hubby came home with these multi-colored roses for me on sunday! I just love when he does things like that it makes me feel better and loved all at the same time!!!
I got up early and went to the docs and have been resting and trying to catch up with the catalogs that are never-ending. The doctor visit they assure me will be fine they just want to double check on something. And I really like her ...which is saying something coming from me! And it's Pilates later so I'm going to end now and do some stitching.......

edited to add....Just wanted to add that Bono of U2 is going to guest edit Vanity Fair Magazine in July read about it here .

I am grateful for my husband's thoughtfulness....
