Of course, it is cloudy today.
I tried to put it on my kitchen counter with the under the cabinet lights for a better view.
You can see that it is not perfectly straight. It was much harder than I would have thought to get it straight. With the border it made it so that you have to a ton more careful than just a pierce with stitching in the center.
It was half the price of framing, so will I do this again? I think it all depends on the stitch.
This one will heading to the Auburn home. It is a sweet family personalized piece. I think I will add in my own handwriting a piece to the back with full names and birthdates.
Now, for Mother.
She goes through these spells where she will get really down with her sinuses or ears and it just puts her down. Then, she gets all sad and thinks worse things are going on. After rounds of tests, which we are doing now and everyone telling her she is in tip top shape and time for antibiotics to work she usually bounces back. I think possibly she will need another round of antibiotics this time.
I say all that to hope that this is the case this time. She has just felt awful and I couldn't get her to go to the doctor early. Then when she consented to go...well, the doctor that we had just started seeing left. The clinic where I have gone for more than 30 years has been bought out and it is a total revolving door mess. None of that helped this situation.
Sunday morning she didn't want to go to church. She ALWAYS goes, so I knew she didn't feel well. She had a dizzy spell which seemed a lot like vertigo. Anyway, to make a long story short, she had a scheduled appointment with a new neurologist and an MRI. Her normal neurologist is in Pensacola and that is an hour drive. We couldn't get in so we agreed to try something here. IT WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. I won't go into details, but this guy may be smart but not good for elderly.
MRI is done. IT was an open one and it took forever, but hopefully it will shed some light on things.
Lindsay and Jeff took turns watching Tucker which meant they missed work. I love keeping him and hope that I don't have to give that up, but we will just see how things go.
In between all the craziness, I have had some good days at home. IF things settle down, I will pop in later this week with some of that. I have not done much stitching. I should have taken it with me yesterday for that very long MRI, but I was about half crazy so I just sat there. I didn't read, get on the phone...just sat and closed my eyes.
Make the most of every good day.
Sandy
