My honey has been hopping up every morning for almost 4 weeks to take Cookie out, so I was thrilled when I woke up first on Wednesday morning (8/5) and slowly and carefully got to take the dog out. I blocked off access to the bedroom so that she wouldn’t disturb Michael and I was very glad he got a chance to sleep in.
For some reason by 9:30 AM I felt tired, so I took a nap. That is one thing I decided with this surgery…that whenever I felt tired…I would take a nap. I would not feel guilty or lazy (2 thoughts that would generally go through my mind in any other situation), I would just rest and realize that it was healing time. But I was surprised that I didn’t wake up until 11 AM!!!
I had a quick breakfast and headed to my studio to get out my blog (which Paula tells me is #200 for this year!) After that I worked on a quilt gift. A neighbor is having her first grandchild….a girl…and I had a baby quilt top already made. So, I embroidered her nickname on it:
and got the back fleece loaded up for quilting:
I have a customer with a quilt ready to go, but I asked her if I could do this baby quilt first. After not using my machine for over 4 weeks, I wanted to make sure I still remembered what I was supposed to do, and figured if any mistakes were made…I wanted them made on my own quilt and not a customer’s :~).
I had company inside while I worked:
and a brief visit outside as well:
Michael had a 3:30 PM tee off time with a friend, so I headed upstairs to knit and watch a bit of TV while he was gone.
Let's name the deer "Peggy"
