No News is just that....

No news... had another p.t. appointment yesterday... it was a painful walk in and equally painful walk out.  I had to take Buddy to his dr. today for his rabies vaccine and, again, walking ( and even driving) was painful.  Then I had to stop at Walmart to pick up a script for hubby... and, of course, no motorized carts available.  Luckily, there was only one person in line ahead of me and so it didn't take long, but it was still a painful walk back to the car.  Painful enough that I cried "Uncle" and called the dr that I don't like to see if I
could come in and get a shot today.  Nooo, he's not in the office on Fridays and Mondays.  Best I could get was 8 AM!! Tuesday morning.  I spent most of the afternoon laying in bed with a heating pad on my knee to see if that would help.. it wasn't too bad until I tried to stand up and walk again.  Sigh... HATE THIS!!

At least the daughter and her son aren't coming from Wyoming this weekend.  As much as I'd like to see them, there's no way I could get the house cleaned up enough for them to spend even one night here.  I sent her a text to make sure they were coming before I called the hotel on the corner; that's when she informed me that they wouldn't be coming because gson couldn't get time off from work.  So glad I waited to call the hotel.

Oh, the other good thing was that I didn't have to cook dinner tonight.  Got an email from Pizza Hut saying I could get ANY pizza for $10 with special code.  Online orders only.  And, for the first time ever, their website decided to take my credit card... WOW!!  We usually order a medium size and have a couple of slices left over for the next day... We'll be able to have the leftovers for dinner tomorrow night... another "No Cooking" night.

Needless to say, I didn't do ANY sewing/quilting today.  I might try getting a few hand stitching done on the flowers and leaves tonight, but might wait til tomorrow.

When we (hubby, Buddy and I) stopped at Walmart after my p.t. yesterday, I went to the fabrics to see what they had in jelly rolls... they didn't have any full ones but there were a few 20 strip ones.  Found a set I liked that had more than one pkg on the rack and bought two.  I want to make a "quilted hug"/quilted prayer shawl for the wife of one of the members of the gospel trio we're so fond of ( the same ones that I made quilts for last year); she's been battling cancer for at least a couple of years and thought that she had won the battle, but it's come back again.  I thought that this 'hug/shawl' could be a comfort while she's going through treatments or just resting at home.  I'll still need to get fleece for the inside and I'll do that in the next week or so - already have the color picked out.

Well... went to add this last pic and 'something' ate the last paragraph I entered earlier.  ... So, here's the  finished bird quilt.  All I had left to do was hand sew the leaves and flowers down.  DONE! 





And, as soon as I take care of the quilt, thread, pins and needle, I'm heading to bed.

take care....

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
