Blogmas Day 4-6

 


Days 4, 5 and 6

It’s been somewhat hectic and stressful these past few days….

Nothing new!

I’ve been focused on cleaning the house and wanted to get most of it done by Monday because I wasn’t sure how I would be after my appointment at the Breast Center yesterday.

You see I had my annual mammogram a couple weeks ago and they found an area of calcification in one breast. So I had an appointment for further screenings to see if was something or not. The last thing you want to hear is that it could be cancer.

 It was 2 years ago this month that I was in the middle of chemo treatments. 

Well I didn’t quite hear that but was told I needed to have a biopsy to determine whether or not it is cancer this time.

So needless to say I haven’t been thinking much of what to write about until today. Figure I would just be honest with myself and you. 

Now I have to wait until next week to get an answer. 

But it will not stop me like it did last time. I was so fearful and frozen I was unable to function properly. It was like being in a fog all the time. 

I refuse to go there again, I have plans for Christmas and a life to live. 

I continued opening my advents, doing so makes me happy to have something to open each day. 

So here are the past 3 days 










This what Scabiosa looks like, never have grown these myself 




I’m loving all the gifts. 

Amy has been sharing seeds from her beautiful garden and I plan on planting them this next year.  


I did finish another hat 

And I forgot to share the pattern name. It is a paid for pattern. 


Called the Savante Beanie 

Yarn is bulky Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick


And they are quick and easy. 

I found the pattern on Raverly, if you don’t go on raverly I'm not sure where to get it.

I have also been spending a little time on a project I started back years ago.

A Snowman wallhanging  

Going to be so cute when I finish 


That’s about all for now. 

I plan on finishing another hat tomorrow and maybe take a trip to Tulsa to a garden center to look for some Christmas plants and decor.

I’ll take pictures to show you what I find.

Welcome friends to share a thought, I enjoy reading them and will try my best to reply back by email most of the time. But if you do not hear back it's because you are a no-reply blogger.

Countdown to Autumn. 18 days

  After some thought I came up with a general "get to" list for a pre - Autumn preparation. I had mentioned a couple in the last post. I will keep those and have added a few more. I needed to remind myself that a lot of my ideas are a little premature hance the pre autumn and will be better done next month. So here is what I came up with... Deep cleaning is still on Planning activity for next month Decorating inside and out.   Making a fall outfit, sewing and knitting Find some new recipes to try Make a pair of fall or Halloween socks I will be focus on journaling with Autumn being the present subject.  Making sourdough bread again This one I have already started, Watching a cozy, feel good show. So "the man of the place" and are rewatching PBS All Creatures Great and Small. In a matter of a couple days we have watched season 1.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...
