Just stopping by

Congrats, Jane, on your medal and for having the fortitude to do the walk! I can't even make it to the mailbox and back, aargh. Tried Curves and didn't care for that setup, so will attempt the bicycle and treadmill and other stuff at the Senior Center on my own. We've already eliminated what little food gives any pleasure due to DH cholesterol problems and trying to lose weight. He lost 30 lbs.since Feb., I gained 5, figure that out.

Haven't been here for a while. The first part of May D(?)H had surgery on two toes. That was a 3 week event. The morning he got the stitches out, that night he slipped on wet grass and fractured his ankle big time; that is to be over with on August 20th. So y'all know what I've been doing waiting on him hand and foot literally. Meanwhile the V.A. sent him (us) to Lexington KY for a neurosurgery consult which was a bust as they said his problem is scar tissue (lower back) and nothing can be done. Since he has lost sight in one eye and the other isn't far behind, he gave up his driver's license a year ago so I am now the designated driver. Quite a trip. Coming home had lunch and he got food poisoning from that; also stopped at a red light in Pineville KY and the tornado siren went off. The storm was travelling the same direction we were. Survived all that.

Wasn't able to go to Knoxville to the Expo and haven't heard any reports yet. I am hoping to go to Asheville this year one way or another but nothing solidified at this point, Jane. I'll email you direct if it gets figured out which should be soon, didn't realize the time was upon us. Haven't been to any shows this year at all and cannot seem to get motivated to do any sewing either.

Oh Sandra, great quilt and congrats on receiving the frame!

Guess I have yacked on enough y'all. Hugs to all.
