Good Morning!
Do you see? It is 2/22/22 today. Kind of fun, but not real important. Mending of my back continues. Yesterday I went for my X-rays. Fast!! Around here you do not make appointments for X-rays - it is strictly walk-in. I arrived and was on my way home in under half an hour! Most interesting to me was that my back felt the best it has when I was sitting in the car and driving. Go figure! Anyway, my doctor should get the results today or tomorrow. I'm not expecting any major news.
Of course I missed posting last week on TNT and there has been progress on both pieces of stitching. A Visiting Bird just has the bottom to complete!
I really am enjoying this one although I confess to already thinking about what the next piece will be to accompany my Adam & Eve Sampler. And, no, A&E have not yet shown up. I think there are two more alphabets to complete before I reach the bottom part of the sampler with A&E, a tree (apple of course) and the evil serpent. But, like A Visiting Bird, I am thoroughly enjoying this piece.
Again, I want to thank you all for your kind words and comments. My apologies for not responding to or acknowledging your comments - I am still limiting my computer time. Yesterday I did manage to read some blogs, but I was lurking - no comments. Gradually I will get back to my normal way. In the meantime, just know that I value and appreciate our on-line friendship so much.
Today's exciting plan is to do some grocery shopping. The day will be a bit dreary as we are expecting rain all day. Yesterday though was gorgeous! 60 in the afternoon and very sunny.
Wishing you all a wonderful Tuesday!
I am so glad that your mending continues! Back issues seem to affect ones entire system... so please take your time and be gentle with yourself!
ReplyDeleteYour stitching has some very impressive growth! I love the alphabet lines... they are so beautiful!
Love your stitching, Vera! And I'm so glad to hear you're noticing improvement. Take care of yourself and don't do too much too quickly as you start to feel better! XO
ReplyDeleteI am in awe of how much you have gotten done while feeling so rotten. Good luck with the news on the x-rays. Take care.
ReplyDeleteYou've gotten so much stitching done! The visiting bird sampler is so lovely. I'm amused by how the alphabet simply stops at N in one row of the Adam & Eve sampler. I wonder why.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling better each day. Being able to drive makes a world of difference mentally, I'll bet.
I'm glad you were able to do so much stitching even while in pain. Both samplers look lovely, and I hope you continue to improve. It's good to have you back blogging and stitching!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are feeling better and have the xrays done. I do hope they give you some idea of the cause of your pain.
ReplyDeleteThe stitching is looking so beautiful. The Visiting Bird is so pretty. I really like the colors in it. The alphabet sampler is striking with all of the red.
I do hope you'll be completely better very soon. Back issues are no fun, just ask me how I know! :-)
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
I hadn't paid attention to the date--fun! Glad you can drive comfortably--that helps a lot. Keep healing!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're able to still do some stitching while you're mending. Nothing is worse than being in pain and being unable to do anything to take your mind off it!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back is better and it is nice to see your stitching again! I missed it last week!
ReplyDeleteI am keeping my fingers crossed that the x-rays come back normal and that your back continues to improve! The visiting bird is really pretty with the density of the thread and saturation of the colors.
ReplyDeleteThe merchants here are going all out for Twosday on a Tuesday. Odd discounts are plentiful - most are 22%. Great progress on both projects. I hope you get good news from the x-rays.
ReplyDeleteYour stitching progress is lovely, Vera. I'm also working on a sampler and am enjoying it. The letters are so quick and satisfying and it's hard to stop!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get good news from your x-rays. And I'm glad to read that you continue to be on the mend! And no rush getting back to blogs - we'll be here when you're ready!
Our Fords have adjustable lumbar support that pushes into your low back and it does make a difference. Could that be what helped your comfort?
