Positive – Walking doing great! Negative – HOT today with a cool off coming next week! More Negative – Monday and Tuesday were not very productive – too many problems with “things”. Today was a double duty to Mamogram Day and had to go for my 6th month ear check up for Menieres. Received a little bad news on that front. The right ear is not doing real well in the low pitches – that is caused by the Meniere’s. High pitch loss is not attributable to Menieres. BLESSING. I have an appointment with my hearing aid Audiologist at 10:00 AM tomorrow (could not believe I was able to get the appointment this soon) for hearing aid adjustments for changes in my hearing. But the last 4 days took a lot out of my quilting time and now another trip to SA tomorrow. I think that I will be able to get some work accomplished on the border tomorrow. After you see the finished border, you will think I am a quilting masochist! You are right!
OK Here were my goals for the last week! (What a joke)
- Finish My Surprise Quilt. Only have 2 each 1” borders put on and 1 side of the next border done.
- Prepare the remaining 5 blocks for In My Garden. What – Did I think I would have 5 days of peace and quiet? Not done
- Start a hand quilting project (have a few tops that are waiting in line patiently) – April Fools
- Do more hand work, less piecing as it is time to catch up on those UFOs. Ha!
- Send 12 quilts to Rebecca for quilting. Waiting on Number 1 goal to be finished
- FINALLY get back to my long arm and finish up the remainder of quilt tops. Maybe in a week or so – No progress
- Complete my Churn Dash SAL project – I need to put the blocks together in a setting! No progress.
So I am going to carry the above “wishes” over to next Tuesday. I have finished all 4 bunnies so here they are!
Monday and Tuesday evening I was in the mood to embroidery. So I am working on another block for my Moda Xmas SAL!
Well, that is all I have to report! I am hoping now that the rest of the year is free from unforeseen requirements so I can meet some or all of the goals I have set for myself!
Have a great week of stitching!
Hugs, Nanette

Sometimes life is just one thing after another. I wish you had shown your embroidery, at least you were able to enjoy some hand work, happy stitching!

Hopefully you’ll be able to catch your breath soon. Those were pretty challenging goals you had set for yourself.

Hi Nanette! That’s great news that you could get into see the audiologist so quickly. Woot woot! Some weeks are just like that – I’ve had several of those in a row. Good job on the walking front, too. You continue to inspire me. Happy Thursday, my friend. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

Yay on the walking! Like you I’m looking forward to the cool down. Doing anything unrelated to sewing seems to take a huge bite out of our production, doesn’t it? You are doing so well on your Christmas embroidery! Thank you for sharing with To Do Tuesday!

Sorry to hear that you have to deal with Menieres, but as a fellow hearing aid wearer, I understand the need for adjustments, etc. and how those appointments cut into the day. I cannot wait to see your border on the Surprise quilt!

Some weeks are just that way. Hopefully you had more time this week and have already checked off several items from the to do list.

You sure do a lot…… I gather you want to finish more but heck you still DO a lot. I wonder if I wrote down what I do if I would find I do more than I think?? Happy Day
