A basic day..... back to work - which is always hard after the holiday - but I did love catching up and chatting with my co-workers!
finished crocheting a hat for a friend
still working on my mystery quilt
COLD, COLD!!
walking is easier - the foot/ankle issues are a little better each day. I have full range of motion but still swelling and pain so when I got home this afternoon I spent most of it on the couch with the leg up.
Argghhh... 25 years ago I had surgeries on both feet - fascia release and tarsal tunnel... I dread the thought that I messed something up and need to get that route again. On the flip side - my experience makes me confident that this is a soft tissue injury that will heal in time if I pay attention.
But I do miss my outside walks! I tried this morning and got partway....
so... no real news from me... leftover hoppin' john and cornbread for dinner and settling in with a little hand sewing and Season 2 of Doctor Who

January 1, 2018
So - trying to figure out writing again....
I've used this blog for a journal - for essays - for posting my crafty & cooking stuff....
Not sure where I want to go with it - or if I am writing for me - or if I have readers..
I still want to chronicle my craft work - especially my quilts so I will take some time soon and update my craft stuff. I had some major computer glitches this year and it made photos problematic - so that was a bit of a slowdown in this media....
I have taken a sunrise photo each day last year - and am continuing that process - it's been a good meditation for me in the mornings... maybe I should put them here to say good morning ....
Today has been a lazy day. I've worked hard the last few days as different family members had requests and ideas and, of course, it is my superpower to coordinate all things and make them happen. And I'm so tired.... - so.... naps! I injured my foot a week ago and have been hobbling around - naps have been good for it
Two craft projects in the works right now - a crocheted hat for a friend who asked for a hat... and piecing a mystery quilt from Bonnie Hunter's website: http://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/on-ringo-lake-mystery.html
Spicy black-eyed peas with ham in the crockpot, brown rice in the steamer and cornbread waiting for me to finish up here.
Tomorrow I will be back at work with a big decision to make there... tonight I will keep the world at bay so I will be energetic and ready to go in the morning!
Have a good evening - I hope the new year brings all good things to you!
ps.. if I DO have readers - let me know - both that you read and if you have requests :-)
