A bit of retail therapy.
Another day of frustration. I took my phone in to have the screen repaired and told it would take 1/2 an hour. Three hours later I got to pick it up and pay the $140 for the repair. Next was a trip to the Quilters and Emboirderers' Store, which is about an hour away. The business is up for sa...

Yes it is good. I am finding sitting and getting up difficult so that is limiting what I do.

I have managed to cut out some fabric using my roller cutter and my shoulder didn't freeze up! Well it still hurt but I did get it cut. Next job is to sew it on the machine.
It sure did. Now I just need somewhere to put it.

I think I have a while to go before I have finished with this.

Lost in la-la land
My health problems have taken me on another journey and hopefully I have now returned. I do not deal well with medications and even over the counter drugs can cause me problems. I had to come off my pain killers, which was only a low dose over the counter type, but I had horrible withdrawal p...

That is going to be my No 1 priority. Even if it means no stitching.

Out of touch
My health is still giving me grief. This time a simple accident has put me out of commission. To cut a long story short I managed to break a vertebrae in my back when the boot door on the car came down on my back. It was the metal lock that hit exactly the right part of the bone to break it....
I am going to Thailand even if I have to come back early. I am taking these next 4 weeks to rest and make sure I can handle it. Thanks about the bags.

I would never have thought that it would take me so long to stitch such a simple design. But this RSI injury is very restricting. This is going to be my last piece of hand stitching until after Xmas. (I hope those are not famous last words!) The stitching is just not good but I don't have th...
Thanks. I hope the kids like it.

Thanks for the kind thoughts. The health goes up and down. I am so impatient to get well.

Another virus
Sorry about the lack of posts but I now find that I have been fighting viral pheumonia, which my husband brought back from Ireland, and a dose of pleurisy. These viruses certainly took my name at the beginning of 2018 and have just kept on. Still, I am still here and as the song says, "I get ...

I would just like to sit and do nothing but I can’t give in to this. So just a little stitching every day.

Work is very slow and not the best I can do with this RSI injury. My limit is one length of stranded cotton divided into 3 x 2 strands and I have to stop. Still the class isn't until January next year so I am keeping ahead. I signed up for Kelly Feltcher's newsletter after finding this free...
It is cute but is taking time to stitch.

A bit naughty
They discharged me from hospital and I went straight to the Stitches and Craft Show down the road. I'm not sure it was the soundest decision I have ever made but I got there when it opened and only spent a couple of hours doing some shopping. By this time I was ready to get home to bed. I...
Thanks Mary.

I am going to be out of action for the next week as I am going into hospital for a raft of tests. I have been ill since February this year and although the Doctor thinks it is just one virus after another they are going to do the tests to be on the safe side. See you next week.
Thank you. Still a way to go but I seem to be a lot better.
