Ok, so this is how this is going to work: no more gratitudes! The mere thought of trying to come up with something that I need to explain to a BLOG was rendering me incapable of keeping a BLOG so I am just going to do what I want with this thing, when I want. There, I said it.
On that note...todays post!
See below, I have added a few finished pieces to my stitching collection. I am working on finishing a quick stitch piece for Boo`s teacher. 
The first of my pieces to hang at my LNS. I customized this pattern to suit myself, as usual. Finished March 1, 2007.
Started March 22 (the day before my carpal tunnel surgery), back from the framers May 30. Backstitching with black, 1 thread over 2 on 32ct olive linen. It was fun, satisfying and a bit more challenging than I expected (for a person with one hand).
Started May 1, finished May 27. On 28ct Antique White Cashel Linen with 1 skein Needle Necessities Floss Overdyed 116 Arctic Nights. I took a few strands and bleached them to be the lighter colour and made sure to maximize my thread usage so I wouldn't run out. I had enough left to make the twisted cord you see because I used white thread to assemble it instead of the blue. I like it better this way :0). Finishing instructions were quite clear, I may try another project by this company.
