It's all good

I made progress on the t-shirt quilt; not quite as much as I would like.   I did get it pin basted and got started on the quilting.

I spent a lot of time resting per doctor orders. Thursday I had a spot on my leg - about 3" above the top of my knee - removed. The chunk she took out of my leg was pretty big and she put 6 dissolvable stitches in underneath and 6 on top. It measures 1 1/2" and the width of what she took out was 1/2"+. I was told to stay off my feet and rest. Well, I decided to mow the grass as soon as I got home since that area was still numb so I knew it wouldn't hurt. I kept waiting for it to hurt and it never did! The 24-48 hour window of wearing the pressure bandage was just about up so I had to put on my big girl pants on Saturday and take the bandage off. Not so bad!

Since I was resting I worked on the Xmas stocking. I made a lot of progress on it. Here is where I was on Thursday and here is where I am now.  I changed a few things from the chart.  There were suppose to be hearts on the tree - too many for me so I nixed them and will just fill in those areas with the different greens.  I also changed the stripes for the wallpaper.  Too much pink.

Sunday I went to a restaurant for lunch for the first time since December 2019 for Mother's day. It was a hibachi place so those big exhaust fans kept the air moving. The grapple finally stopped before I left. Grapple is not quite snow and not quite hail. It was gone from the ground by the time I got back home.  We had warmer weather in March than we do now!  I have a feeling it is going to go from this cold weather to hot without a slow rise in temps.
