First acpuncture treatment today

BTW-the Y2K quilts are all lovely.
I wanted to get off of the med the Neuro doc had given me, as they were giving me anxious thoughts, and weirdness that I don't need more of. After checking with my Blue Cross insurance I found several chiro. docs in the town that do acupuncture, and went to one this morning. Had some deep tissue massage, the acupunture, and have a lot less kinks in the neck and shoulders.
Hopefully this will keep me from having those terrible migraine headaches. We are driving to the Tally. Fla. area on Friday for a wedding. After that flying to Branson, MO on Monday to see some shows. This flight is to use the flight vouchers we received last May when I got so sick with the migraine and couldn't get on the plane. Looking back, with all the trouble we have had I would have just boarded the plane! I could have thrown up there, and then gotten it over with, and gone on to see the grand kids.
Airline alert--don't ever fly Allegiant Airlines. Terrible customer service--as in none. If and when we fly again we will go with another line, just pay the price and change wherever we have to.

My second Y2K



Now I remember why there weren't any 3" squares left over. I used them on the half square triangles. This is the second Y2K quilt I made. It's the one we use on our bed in the summertime. It was based on a pattern from one of the quilt magazines. The designer made it in Civil War Repros and called it North and South. Since my squares came from around the world, I called this one "North, South, East and West." Haven't been able to run down a picture of the first one yet, but I know it's here somewhere. Otherwise I'll just have to take a new one!

Y2 K

Here is the quilt I am trying to replace. I have pulled it to one side so that the picture looks decent...I sorted my squares light, medium, and dark. Then I simply grabbed squares from the appropriate bag. I did do some color sorting as I went so that the yellows, reds, and oranges were scattered rather that together.

On the off side, I have 10 inches of mattress showing, and there is no pillow tuck. The new mattress is ridiculously large. Eventually I am going to need stairs to climb up there. So far, I am still agile enough to make the ascent.
The other Y2k quilt was never wide enough. I need to find someone with a full size bed to use this one.
