Normally, I hate to see September arrive as it brings with it the end summer which is my favorite season. This year is another story... August couldn't be over fast enough! It gave us a run of nothing but health issues. I started the month with a head cold that turned into Bronchitis and a sinus infection. 10 days of antibiotics cleared me up then Chris lands in the hospital with a perforated colon from diverticulitis. Thankfully he responded to high doses of anitbiotics and was released after 5 days and was off work for another week. His work is very physical and with 13 hour shifts I won't say it's been an easy road the past weeks but at this point I don't think he'll need surgery. He has a follow up with the surgeon this week, hopefully with the major dietary changes that have happened while he's healing then once healed high fiber lifestyle minus nuts/seeds or corn/popcorn for him will be enough to prevent another bout.
My day job has been more insane than usual but since Chris being discharged we've been walking in the evenings which is really helping me shake off the stresses of the day.
On the sewing front not a lot to report but and I almost have the top of the surprise quilt done after a power session over the long weekend. Hopefully I will get it finished next weekend.
Most of our spare time has been spent looking at the house with a critical eye and discussing how to make our house work bether for us. The want list is high and many are on the someday plan but a few have made it to first priority list. More on that when the ideas are more than a planning phase.
Hopefully next post will be full of quilted goodness
