Happy 27th 
Anniversary 
to us.

:)

We got married on the same day the original Back to the Future movie takes place, so Marty McFly and I have something in common. 

work in progress

This is one of the projects I have been working on. The colors are much more "neon" than the picture shows. Not sure what who will get it when I am done.

potholders

I made some potholders for my friend.
She had a facebook comment one day about burning potholders
...so I had to.

I just used some odd scraps and attempted rounded corners.
Hope she doesn't set them on fire! 
:o)

So far I still have a job :)

My friend who was battling brain cancer passed away yesterday :(  Only 42, so sad.

Finished 2 afghans :) No plans for them, maybe I will get an etsy shop someday.

Had to see an otolaryngologist, I have a little lump on the back of my neck. Nothing to do with my spine surgery and  nothing to worry about, he said I am just weird  :o)   ( I do not need a specialist to tell me that! LOL)  

I have been working on some pillows for my great-nieces for Christmas presents. Seems like a long time til Christmas, but it will sneak up on me if I am not careful.

I am bad at blogging
Actually have been working on several crocheting projects.
Just don't get around to taking pictures.

I had cortisone shots in both shoulders yesterday.
Honestly, I don't know why I worry so much about those and put them off,
because they aren't that bad.
The worse part was the gown because it was chilly in there!

I am worried  that I might be out of a job soon.
Its not a great job. I only work part time,make little more than minimum wage, and no benefits.
But I love the people and the little extra spending money and adding to our retirement account.
Stressing about it only make me tense,
which makes my neck hurt.
Wish I was not a worry wart.

Sept 29

No sewing again today
Instead we installed new 
ceiling panels in the kitchen.

No idea who's idea 
it was to put a suspended 
ceiling in an old house.
but GROSSSS!

Oh well, 
the new (ugly)
are installed and 
they are clean and I 
could not take a long enough 
shower after dealing with all the 
disgusting yucky yucky stuff
that fell on my head
today.

Holy run on sentence Batman!

dish rags

I haven't been sewing at all. 

Just not interested right now, 

I have plenty of ideas but no energy.

At my follow up with the neurosurgeon he told me that he believes anesthesia messes with metabolism. My fatigue is not unusual. He said a major surgery can kick some people in the butt, and since I have had three in the last year I can take a nap when I want to, if I'm tired that is my body telling me I need to rest.  Ok then!

I am going to work everyday, and can do some crocheting while things are quiet in the afternoon. Make lots of dish rags. Also started new striped wavy afghan. They lifted all my restrictions! The only things off limits are things with force. No tackle football, no bungy jumping, no water skiing....I should be good with those. I am also not supposed to fall on the ice or be in a car accident...will do my best!
