Anyway, I'm on my "slower than Molasses" laptop right now. I thought I would share a photo of the little cross stitch ornament that I made for my mom for Valentine's Day:
It's a little complimentary design that I found online. I used Sampler Threads to stitch and some metallic blending filament in the peacock. I hand dyed the fabric myself.
I just finished reading Killing Lincoln. Excellent book! One of the best I've read in many years!!! There was a lot more going on than what I knew about!
On the genealogy front, I'm still stuck on my 3rd great grandmother, my great, great grandmother and my great grandmother. I really don't know where else to look for more information on them. My 3rd great grandmother was a cousin of General William T. Sherman of the Civil War. I can't say that I'm bouncing off the walls over that, I'm just trying to figure out who her father was. I thought if I could figure that detail out with my 3rd great grandmother, then perhaps I could figure out what the deal is with my great great grandma Phoebe and my great grandma Adria.
I guess I'll work on that for a little while. But first I have to the get the stupid tax stuff together.

So pretty! I'd recognize that Kissy Cross design anywhere!
What a lovely Valentine's Day gift. I have to say, I like Windows 10 much better than Windows 8. I hope it works better for you!
I had Win 8 right before I retired on my computer at work and I hated it. For Christmas, I bought Terry a laptop with 10 so I could see if I liked it, since MS wants me to update my Win 7 to Win 10 for free. Think I'll keep 7 for as long as I can. I hate the APP thing. Hope this update solves your issues. Can't live without our computers, can we? Well, I guess we CAN, but not as easily.
xx, Carol
