Good Report From Eye Doctor

June 29th, 2010

Had eye appointment today.  Pressure is at fourteen, which is great, but I am now to use the Patanol in both eyes three times a day.  Normally I see the eye doctor every three months but this time I have another appointment in two weeks. I finally got my bed in the place where I [...]

Christmas Challenge For June

June 28th, 2010

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago I am taking part in Amanda’s Christmas Challenge that was set up by a friend in Australia.  The challenge for June was a Christmas ornament and this afternoon I finally finished the ornament.  I bought hexagon shapes just for making this ornament and had plans to make [...]

Embracing Your Second Calling by Dale Hanson Bourke

June 21st, 2010

If you are a woman over the age of forty and want more passion and purpose in the last half of your life then you should read Embracing Your Second Calling by Dale Hanson Bourke.  When I first opened the book I thought it was going to be just another how-to improve your life book [...]

Not A Great Day

June 19th, 2010

Was going to get the rest of the containers of fabric moved out of the studio but my ankle was hurting and I was so tired that I just could not get going.  I think the tendonitis in my right ankle is coming back and that is one reason that I did not force myself [...]

What A Day

June 17th, 2010

I left home about fifteen minutes after eight this morning and was at the doctor’s office about twenty minutes before my appointment.  The paperwork for blood work was ready so I walked across the room to the lab and only had to wait about five minutes.  Then it was back to the doctor’s office where [...]

One Tired Body

June 16th, 2010

If I would work every day as I have today I would not have so much to do hanging over my head.  I have moved “stuff” until the world looks level.  Still have more to move from my studio.  I am moving the opaque containers of fabric to a spare bedroom to clear up room [...]

Great Beginning For The Week

June 13th, 2010

Something happened in the worship service at church this morning that I have never witnessed before.  A new friend of mine had the solo when the choir sang this morning and she was so good that she received a standing ovation.  When I talked with her after church I told her that the only thing [...]

The Little Pill Worked

June 11th, 2010

I took the Melatonin last night but it was forty minutes before I finally got in bed instead of the thirty that is recommended and I was asleep in just a very short time.  Woke up this morning five minutes before the alarm was to go off.  I was actually at church and waiting for [...]

Finally Did My Job

June 10th, 2010

This morning I woke up exactly one minute before the alarm was to go off to get me up to prepare Brian’s lunch.  A soon as I handed him his lunch I went back to bed to sleep another two hours.  Again I woke up exactly one minute before the alarm sounded.  I quickly showered, [...]

Christmas Challenge

June 7th, 2010

My friend Amanda who lives in Australia is having a Christmas in July Challenge and I have decided to take part since I have nothing else to quilt or sew.  Don’t I wish I had no quilts waiting to be made?  In all honesty I decided to take the challenge for I do not have [...]
