Chic n Scratch
My Picture of the Day #51 is what I worked on all weekend! Bella’s Bundle #2.
If you look to the left of this picture you’ll see my Log Cabin Quilt ….on my Quilt Wall.
I’d like to say more …. but I’ve been in bed since this afternoon with a major tummy ache. I just hope it was something I ate and not a bug!
good night!
I honestly have no clue how it’s Saturday … this week has flown by and I’ve accomplished very little!
Grrrrr
But … I will say personally it’s been a week for family stuff. We started with Brooke’s 21st birthday … that day was so full of activity … it went on for so long that I thought Tuesday was Wednesday (does that even make sense?). Then it was tax day …. we always wait until the very last minute because who wants to write a check early?
Next … Chase has been interviewing for jobs … and for some it may not be a big deal … in our house it is. His college held a career fair and he did very well … he had four interviews and four offers. He officially accepted an offer yesterday and starts in May. Words can not express how proud I am!!
Health wise … I have decided to start walking every day … because some have said that maybe my lack of physical activity could be my problem. It’s been over a week ….. the walking is not helping the pain …. in fact it’s making the pain worse. But …. I will continue … and hopefully over time it may help. My next appointment is with KU Medical on April 30th. One thing I will say is I am trying really hard to just push through the pain. Right before my live stream last night I was wishing I had not scheduled it (only because of the pain) but when the camera turned on and I was in the moment the pain was less severe.
Let’s end this blog post with something fun!!! The picture below is of some new fabric …
It’s the Ambleside Jelly Roll Brenda Riddle Designs for Moda Fabrics and I’ll be making another Jelly Roll Quilt. In fact I’m thinking this will be the fabric for my next Quilt Along on Chic n Clique.
I bought two Jelly Rolls and when I got home Brooke spoke for one of them immediately … so I need to buy another one!
I hope you’re having a great week … I’m sorry I haven’t posted much!! Maybe next week I can get caught back up in my house and my business!!
See ya!
The sun came out for a few short minutes today and I snapped this picture really fast!
Tomorrow it’s headed to the long arm quilter and the next time you see it …it will be finished.
I can’t wait to see the finished product!!
Now for some more personal stuff …..
I seriously do not feel good! Even holding my cell phone to my ear hurts my arms and my hands.
More tests on Thursday so hopefully an end to pain and exhaustion is near!
Several people have said diet and excersise will make me feel better. So I’ve gone on weight watchers and I’m walking on my treadmill … every day. So far it hasn’t helped …but it hasn’t hurt either.
Yesterday I said all day that there was no way I could go to Leadership in January …today I gave myself a mental slap … I will feel better in January! (Must remind myself to keep sayin it and believing it!)
See ya later!
P.S. Snow is in our forecast …I hope they are wrong!
