This is how I make it through the week, both the act of embroidery and the sentiment expressed.

It's Wednesday, April 16th, and below is my current situation. Yes, that's snow. It's not sticking much, but it's still coming down. The predicted high will be an astounding 32F/0C.
Oh Upstate, you are never dull. Good think I haven't packed up my sweaters yet.

Happy Friday, Skylings!!! It's a warm (relative to Tuesday) morning with a predicted high of 45F/7C. It's going to rain all weekend, but as a former PNWer, that's no issue for me. It makes my daffodils happy.
I actually managed to stitch last night, so obviously my mood is improving! #embroidery

My sanity...?
But seriously, I'm working on a cute little piece from Mollie Johanson and I love it. I also plan on working more on setting up my sewing space so I can work on my crazy quilt squares.
