Today... felt a little bit like normal again.
Today... I hoovered for about two hours. Not so normal after all!
Today... I sat on the floor and finished my epp star. It is my first block for my Brit Bee Round Two quilt. Some blocks have already been made by the others. I cannot wait to show you. They are amazing.

| What is it with the colour differences?! Same camera. Same location. Taken moments apart. The one on the left is pretty true to the real colours. The one on the right looks insipid with the pale orange scissors. I don't do insipid! |
Today... while I sat on the floor and stitched, I listened - to nothing. Blissful silence.
Today... I breathed some more. Breathing is good.
I think, my friends, that things are getting back on track. It is a good, good feeling.
Susan

ReplyDeleteSounds like you have turned a corner - hoping things continue to go well - and that you get another beautiful quilt, which seems very likely having seen your marvellous block!

ReplyDeleteToday I took the car parts and doctor's trips baton from you!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad normal is back! 2hrs hoovering is way too much.
ReplyDeleteFab block.
What a great block! I'm guessing hoovering is related to vacuuming, that's an awful lot of time .. hmmm. I think my back would ache if I did that.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a "normal" day!
I'm glad things are getting back to normal. Happy Thanksgiving from Canada, I just had the best turkey dinner ever!!!

Sometimes the ordinary things are the best. The EPP is looking good. Di x
ReplyDeleteOh Susan, it's gorgeous. I love the orange with the blue. Absolutely beautiful.
