I’m afraid that I have nothing to show, yet again. I didn’t really get to stitch while my parents were here and then I slept most of the day away.
The weather suddenly became cold this weekend, but we didn’t get any snow. My newly planted pansies are drooping a little bit, but if it starts to warm back up soon, I think that they will be okay. Some of the seeds that I worked on last weekend have already started to germinate. Ironically, the first ones to come up and had at least one seed per peat pod germinate were the broccoli seeds I had from 2004! I didn’t actually expect them to germinate, so it was a pleasant surprise. I’m also seeing some tomato seedlings, a couple of thyme and a handful of lavender seedlings poke up. Yay! I like plants. 🙂
I caught up on all of my accounting last night and, with the help of my Dad, filed my first quarterly sales tax return for the business this morning. I’ve decided that accounting work is definitely not my cup of tea and makes me tired. 😉 I’ve learned a lot this first month in business, mostly from my mistakes. So, my first quarter of accounting entries are ugly, but the numbers all add up and zero out just like they should. Dad helped me look over some reports this morning, so despite the difficulties I’ve had, I feel really good about everything right now. And I am SO relieved to finally be caught up! Bring on the next releases, Outi! 😆
On the stitching front, I’m afraid to say that I don’t expect to have pictures to share for a little bit. I need to finish this model, which will happen this week. Of course, I also have only a week before Spring Dragon has to be done and in the mail. Ack! So, I guess I will have a photo or two of that this week.
Have a great week!
Will do, soon. 8)
Ug. Accounting. Hope you had plenty of coffee.
I hope your plants do well! I am jealous of people with a green thumb:) My thumb is black..lol. I’m looking forward to seeing your spring dragon.
You’ll have such a lovely garden soon, Jenna! How exciting 🙂 I’m thinking of growing lavender in our flat, but one pot is about all the space we can afford. We don’t even have a balcony. Never mind! Life is long 8) There’s always time for a garden – later! 😀
Enjoy yours 🙂
You’ll have to share pics of your garden – it sounds like it will be fabulous! Glad your servers are up and running, and that you are all set on your accounting for the store. You’ve been busy!
Jenna, you are the bravest woman I know – just the thought of having to do accounting is enough to break me out in a cold sweat with trembles and tics. Good for you for getting it done, and good for your dad for lending a helping hand.
It didn’t get very warm here this weekend either, and Nicky decided to come down with the chicken pox after all, so we had a very quiet weekend. The Easter bunny was generous, which made everyone happy. 😉
I added a note to the FOF blog to say that the seam allowance is about 2 cm. I’m afaid I’m one of those annoying people who doesn’t like to measure things too well. Email me if you’d like more explanation and I’ll do my best. 🙂
