I finally broke down and got a new computer. My last one was at least 10 years old and had finally slowed down to the point I couldn't stand it. Since it just couldn't be rebuilt again, off I went and brought home a brand new one. It has great speed, lots of ram, and Windows 7 which I love! All the configuring and software loading has been eating into my stitching and blogging time. But it was worth it.
And . . . new fireplace, you wonder? We had a propane tank put in and a propane fireplace insert installed inside the original wood burning fireplace. We were hoping to have it in by Christmas and really wished for it with the snow. But it was finally installed this week. I'm planning to enjoy it throughly.
Now off to get cozy by the fireplace with my Long Dog sampler. Happy stitching!

Such a pretty sampler. The colors in it are really soothing. Congrats on the new computer and the fireplace. We recently got our fireplace up and burning and I really enjoy it.

The sampler looks nice. Kind of reminds me of Just Nan in a way. I don't know how you made it this long without a new computer. Glad you got one. That fireplace looks nice and cozy.
Ooh, beautiful sampler! I love the colors in it. Enjoy your new fireplace! We have a gas fireplace and it isn't my favorite but I do enjoy NOT having to mess with coal, etc. Congrats on the new computer, too!
I like that sampler too - lovely work so far! Congrats on the new computer and fireplace.
