That Time of the Month Again

Already it is that time of the month again.  This year is flying by far too fast for my tastes.  Too bad there wasn't a way to slow things down!  I know I shouldn't really set goals...but I consider these more stitching possibilities.  I know I won't get to them each month, but it is nice to at least think about what I have going on.  So here is what I listed last time around:

1. Finish needlebook for Jodi --Yes, can you believe it--finished and received (may I take a bow!)
2. Start stitching on last three birthday gifts from my birthday exchange (I have two picked out and one kitted up)--by the way these are not actually due to be mailed until November and December, so I am trying to play ahead--what a concept! --I have started on one, kitted up the second, and am waiting for Elegant Stitch to send supplies on the last one!
3. Work on either HoHRH or VoHRH--any progress would make me happy! --Working on Square #1 of VoHRH
4. Dare I mention Merry Cox and my poor "Shaker Spool Holder"? --Sorry.  What am I going to do about this??
5. Stitch Prairie Schooler "August"--it is a watermelon...surely I can handle that? --Started the little beehive
6. Maybe do some finishing?  You saw the little pile I have that is ready to be finished...even one thing would be good. --No time for this this month. 
7. Work on Just Nan's "Miss Kitty's Dragon" (more about this later) --Yes.  I have actually been stitching on this almost daily!  Slow progress, but progress all the same.
8. Finish my Wee Fancies--I just have to finish the little beehive.  I think I won't stitch the sunflower.  I am ready to move on to autumn stitching now. 

Really, considering how little I have been stitching at home lately, I feel like I accomplished more than I expected.  I am not sure what to do about my Merry Cox Shaker Spool Holder.  Is anyone else still stitching on this?  Lena-Lou--did you get your supplies?  I hate to bail if there are still people who want to stitch as a group.  I need to get motivated on this one to pick it up again. 

Here is what I have in mind for September:

1. Catch up on reading needlework blogs!  Yes, I feel completely out of the loop as usual!
2. Keep working on "Miss Kitty's Dragons"--maybe finish stitching this month.
3. Work on my Prairie Schooler ornaments
4. Work on those last three birthday gifts!!
5. Continue working on VoHRH--try to finish square #1 and start square #2
6. Complete last Wee Fancy (could be easily done in one night)
7. Merry Cox "Shaker Spool Holder"--give it another try?
8. New project:  Just Nan "Crowjackers" and Birds of a Feather Halloween design (if I ever get my supplies)
9. New Project: Kit up "Petite Mexican Sampler" (looking forward to this one!)
10. Choose one UFO and spend a little time working on it!!

Obviously I am feeling ambitious!  Maybe the cooler weather will help me work in more stitching hours!
