Yay!!! Finals are over!!!

Now it's a week of whatever I want to do whenever I want to do it...

OK, not really, but a girl can dream, right?!?

Don't know my grades for sure, but they're in the B+ to A range, so I'm pretty darn pleased with myself. I have made quite a few friends in my cohort and that has been a real blessing. Thursday night after all was said and done, our cohort went on a "pub crawl" down Alberta St in Portland.
OK...I felt a little old. While it was nice to visit with my fellow students outside of classes, I am not much for the pub scene or the drinking. My libations consisted of a single Shirley Temple (grenadine syrup and 7up) and I was exhausted from the sheer number of people by 9:30. I think I went home around 10pm.

If you want to see what I've finished up latelyon the stitching front, I've updated my stitching journal blog. It looks like I just ripped through a bunch of them, but really I put the final stitches in on several different small projects. A few of them had been hanging around for awhile, so it was nice to have the stitching complete. Other than that, here's an update on my Celtic Spring. Put a few hours in her one night last week. It felt good. She's so close, really...
I'm awaiting the news that my Stitching Blogger Birthday girlfriend has received her gift before I can post a pic of that. My F&S Spring squares will go out on Monday, the deadline as always and then I just have the PIFs to finish and mail.

Well done on getting through your course with such good grades - I know it's tough when you have so many other commitments!

Roll on 12 June, when my last assignment is due, but can we stretch time until Wednesday at 5pm when another one is due? :o)

Ps Celtic Spring looks stunning!
