More regular sewing
Yesterday, I had good intentions... I was going to sew all day, but that didn't happen. I've been sick all week and yesterday was the worst. I made the mistake of laying down on the couch and yep, you guessed it, that's what I did most of the day. I slept and slept. My thinking was if I just laid down for a few minutes, I'd get up refreshed or feeling better and then I'd get busy. Not! I got up and had some soup and crackers and laid down again. I didn't become coherent until around 6:00. I got up and cut out a dress and started sewing. My goal for the week was to see both of my sisters, have supper with a friend and get some sewing done. I have done a little sewing and that's it. I haven't been anywhere since I've had this darn bug but I haven't wanted to go anywhere and spread it around either. I still want to visit my sisters but that's going to have to wait. I still have congestion, a sore throat and a runny nose but I'm feeling lots better. Maybe by the weekend I'll be better. I have made at least one item a day this week and yesterday was not exception. I cut out the dress (a very simple dress, no zipper or buttons-it slips over the head) and sewed it up. I'm wearing it now and it's pretty comfortable. I wanted something like this so I could take it to retreat. Some of the women wear their jammies and come back and sew late at night but I can wear this instead and still feel dressed. Anyway, gotta go for now and get busy. I'm behind on my schedule... til next time, happy sewing!

Hope you feel better soon! I don't think I'd be sewing or quilting if I was sick - you are some Superwoman! Call if you need some comfort, chicken soup, or anything!
Hope you're feeling better by now. I always feel like naps are a waste of time but there are times in your life where you really need them.
