Good Juju

I'm totally off the rotation this week: working on the quilt for my niece and making Valentine's day cards for my grandmothers--still trying to write to them every month! And our home computer is having "issues" which are stressing me out. I told the dude to go buy a new one last weekend, but he'd rather just yell at this one. Why not? So it takes ages to get two photos onto the blog. Anyway it's sapping my low energy.

However, CinDC blames my lost poll for sweeping her box of floss off into the great wide open. Let's help her find it.

Lost Poll: Post Options

Hey gang,

When I was uploading the lost poll I accidentally disabled the comments. D'uh, after I told you to put your "other answers" in the comments. They're open again.

I was going to tell you that I've lost three projects, but my network card at work failed Friday, and I was too stuffed up and goofy to get on the computer this weekend. I'm on a coworker's computer today. Anyway, the projects: two were on airplanes; you'd think I'd learn. The first was in the early 90s when I was flying BOS-LAX. There was a huge snowstorm and we sat for ages on the plane. We were the last flight out of Boston that night. Anyway, a sunflowers scissors pocket (by Forget-Me-Nots in Stitches) attached to scissors in my lap, stood up to get off the plane, didn't hear them drop to the floor. Left without them. I have everything to stitch this project again, but I'm not sure I want to. Maybe I'll rethink it once I have finish-finished the needlebook that goes with it.

Second was a stumpwork thistle (Liz Turner Diehl) that I made for my MIL. Sent it overseas where some horrible postman stole all the Christmas presents from the box. Never restitched.

The last one, I discussed here. It was an anniversary present for the dude. Left it on the plane because I was so worried about making my connection. Argh. I have repurchased the pattern, but that's as far as I've made it. This one is the one I'd put my money on...

A Different Kind of Lost

It's Friday, time for a poll.

I'm sure there are other answers. If I haven't listed yours, you know where to stick it...in the comments, why, where'd you think?
