Goals and Lists
I already received a confirmation for one of my orders and I was surprised that everything was in stock! Usually several items are out of stock and/or have been discontinued. It has already been dropped into the mail so I should have it within several days! Order #1 will include --
Drawn Thread - Sampler Game Board
Little House Needleworks - Snowflakes
Little House Needleworks - Winter Whites
Blackbird Designs - Awake The Dawning Day
Blackbird Designs - Beneath The Sunlit Sky
Order #2 is still out for the count (so to speak) and I have asked they let me know if any of the items are not currently available. Until I hear from them I don't want to jinx my order by saying what is supposed to be in it so I will wait for the order confirmation on it before saying!
I saw a wonderful coffee questionnaire on another blog and thought I would do it also since I am such a coffee fanatic!
1. Whole bean or ground? I usually buy ground since I haven't bought my own coffee grinder yet!
2. Fully-loaded or decaf? No decaf is allowed in this house! LOL
3. Regular or flavored? Both! I love to try out different and new flavors! But I need that regular for a good kick in the pants!
4. How do you drink your coffee? Usually with non dairy creamer only. At restaurants , I use both sugar and creamer.
5. Favorite coffee ever? I love Pumpkin Spice and Italian Roast by Starbucks!
6. Are you fussy about your coffee or will any old bean do? It depends on the brand. I do love Starbucks, Millhouse and Flying Bean but they are a little expensive to get all the time.
7. Favorite treats to have with your coffee? Biscotti, pecan twirls, or any type of pastry
8. Anything else about your coffee preferences? I am happy with almost anything coffee related. If I have my coffee, I am happy! The mug is almost as important as the coffee that is in it!
I checked my October goals and did fairly good. Better than I thought I would. Time for November's goals. With the busyness of the next several months, I am going to be rather easy on myself.

Oh, great job with your goals this month! And I love Starbucks coffee, too. It's my 'big splurge' when we're visiting family in the US. :D
This WIP is coming right along too! I love it! I also love your stash that you picked out...WOW! There's a couple of them that I really want too!
I really enjoyed reading about you and your coffee :)
I agree with you about the fully-loaded, gotta have it!! Your WIP is really coming along nicely.
Great job on your October goals! I really like the coffee questionaire, I may have to borrow it.
Well done on your Oct. goals! And I love the new stash selections. Can't wait to hear about Round Two.Very cute coffee questionnaire ~ gotta love the Starbucks!And your stitching is lovely as well.
Great stash. Don't you just love BBD's. I wish I were organized enough to set stitching goals. Yours are great.
