Here we go again...lol

Hi folks!  Sorry it took so long to update, it's been a wild ride.  We never lost power, but I ended up with the flu starting on Friday and I was flat out by Saturday.  I don't think I was awake for more than a few hours all day, most of the day was spent sleeping.  Since last Saturday, I've lost 6 pounds...not fun...lol.  I think I'm finally back to eating normal meals now...haha.  We did get several inches (I am not sure how much, 4-5 is my guess) with a nice inch or so coating of ice.  It was a mess to clean up, though I was too sick to help out.  Thankfully our neighbors took pity on Mike and gave him a hand.  So we are cleared out for now just in time for the bomb cyclone headed this way this weekend.  I'm feeling a little better today, though a little shaky, so begged off when the kids asked me to watch Miss Q.  

For the first time in 1421 days (almost 4 years) I didn't stitch on Saturday.  I couldn't stay awake, or hold a hoop.  I barely stitched on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday.  Gotta be honest, I'm sad I broke my streak.  Yesterday was the first day I actually made any progress stitching...and have nearly finished off a page from Let Freedom Ring by Lila's Studio.  Sorry it's so dark.  



I'm hoping to finish off this page (not much left to do in all honesty) then I'll get back to Hummingbird's Garden.  I won't be able to finish this "Blessing Sampler" by the end of the month so already my yearly plans have gone belly up.  As I've said before...we make plans and God laughs.  So I hope this isn't an omen of how this year will go...haha.  I'm learning to roll with the punches.  Ok, I've been fed and watered, done my daily Sodoku, prayed for those who are sick, without power, and for our country as a whole...it's time to stitch!  Who's with me?  Happy Stitching!
