Some of you sent me ideas of how to keep busy while I was recovering. I thought I should let you know how I kept myself occupied. It will read something like HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION.
Clean House -- nope, too much lifting and stretching.
Watch daytime television. --NOPE
Watched State Fair with Pat Boone. OY VEY -- Not a great flick. Didn't remember that Ann-Margaret played his girlfriend. Not a couple I would have imagined on screen. Pat had his shirt off in one scene. That was as racy as it got. The best part of the movie was Tom Ewell sing to his pig. I honestly enjoyed that.
Didn't get around to doing crossword puzzles -- I do have a few puzzle books in my closet.
I did finish a cross - stitch project. Hibiscus on pink AIDA -- stitch count 80 x 74. It is going to the World of Charity Stitching to be part of a quilt
I did not start a new project.
I narrowed down my choices for my next project
I updated my Excel spreadsheet with my patterns that are scanned into my computer.
I updated my Excel spreadsheet that lists unused DMC skeins of floss -- 653!!
I condensed the storage boxes with partially used bobbins of floss -- went from eleven to ten. The reason I have so much is that I bought at garage sales, people gave me unwanted stuff Also, when I used to work on way too many projects at one time I would have a complete set of floss bobbins for each project.
Tried to spell out "CROSS STITCH" on my kitchen table using ALPHABET cereal. Too bad, I only had CHEERIOS
Contacted DARICE and told them I couldn't unpeel the backing off my wiggly eyes.
Read part of a real book
Took naps and listened to talking books
APPRECIATED MY HUBBY
And that my friends is what I did while recovering
