Good morning,
VAL - so sorry about your block. Do you ever thing that some days we just aren't meant to be sitting at our machines? I'm glad your dad is responding well. He is certainly getting better care than he would in any facility! And what about your caregiver? Did you ever hear from her?
CHRISS - glad those 3-ft waves didn't get you! No, I'm not meant to be a winter Texan. I'm not meant to be any kind of Texan, not even the mother of a temporary Texan. But if I want to see her, this is how it is. With limited vacation time and 5 pets it's difficult for them to travel. Did you get to sew this weekend or did That Man keep bothering you? In this trailer, the door to my sewing room is The door to the trailer! Bill's recliner brushes up against my sewing table. If I posted an "office hours" note it would have to be on my forehead! lol!
TINA - so exciting to have a new little one on the way! You should be finding out if it's a pink little one or a blue one pretty soon. I bet you already have a quilt (or two?) made in your happy mind!
SHARONA - glad those stitches are out. Sometimes there is a bit of 'thread' that wants to hide and you have to 'go for it'. Did you ever get your bx results back?
JANA - glad no symptoms are showing up in your family yet! So? What trouble - er, I mean - what fun project did you find to immerse yourself in? I heard your 49-ers won yesterday. We heard it all over this park as the Cowboys went down. And it wasn't cheering we heard! lol!
VELDA- Once you get your proper Rx glasses I think you'll be really happy. The readers off/on/off/on is why I finally gave up wearing contacts and just use my bifocal glasses now. Such a hassle when sewing.
JUDI - So, what's on your docket today? Sewing? Is Ken in a lot of pain as he waits for his surgery? Flying isn't really an option for us. We don't like flying plus we have pets. They don't like to fly either and we don't have anyone to care for them while we are gone. The RV is their second home. And we do love to travel. But I don't like just sitting for months in Texas. After visiting Autumn I want to move on, see other things before we get to old to do it but Bill wants to settle in. So we compromise and stay longer than I want but go home before he wants. As long as I have my sewing, I can keep from whining too much, except to you guys. You get to hear it all, you lucky ducks!
BECCA - is your throat tickle still improving? I'm kind of on the lookout for such things now in everybody, not just us. We saw your governor on the national news, talking about your storm. You have a bunch of snow, it looks like. thank goodness you have your generator that kicks in automatically!
SUZETTE - where are you??
Well, the results are in - I'm negative! Yay for me! They gave Bill one dose of steroids in the ER and within an hour he was bouncing around like a young man of 69! He still feels great this morning and is making plans to leave tomorrow unless he feels less great through the day today. Doc said he would be better after 7 to 10 days. And today is day 8. Traveling like this is pretty isolating so we're not worried about him spreading it around and with an N95 mask I can pay in RV parks, though most parks have contactless registration now. He didn't want to cancel our string of reservations he'd just made the day before he got sick or his dental appts. I just hope I don't get sick now.
I got another 13 crazy blocks done yesterday. I did some math and found I don't need nearly as many as I thought I did - Only 52 more. They go pretty quickly, but not quickly enough to get them all done today! I will do some laundry (masked) and a curbside grocery order of extra milk and bread. That should fill up my day!
That's all my news. Now I'll go "sew and piece".
