Someone has stolen my mojo man!! I can't craft *sobs*
You'd think with all this convalescing time i'd have got loads done, but i just can't seem to settle on a project :o( I started a dishcloth while i was in hospital, didn't finish it though cos i didn't like how it was turning out - it was an experiment with mitred squares and picking up the stitches to knit the next square rather than sewing them all together at the end but it went wrong *lol*
When i came round from the anasthaetic and went back onto the ward i was too woozy to do anything except doze off and wake up continuously - the morphine helped with that nicely :oD is it a good thing to enjoy taking morphine?? i'm happy to report that up til now the news is good, nothing too nasty going on that we didn't already know about, i am just waiting on some histology to come back which should be in a week or so and then i don't have to see the doctor again for three months - WOOTWOOT! I've been struggling with this convalescing thing though, i hate having to leave off doing things until Bloke comes home so i end up doing them myself and then feeling rough... BUT i am accepting responsibility for my actions and i don't want sympathy for hurting myself, just for the initial surgery please *giggling*
So, this weekend we are off camping, and i am under strict instructions to TAKE IT EASY! so i'll do my best ;o) Actually i think it will be hard. I enjoy setting up camp and usually do it pretty much on my own, except for putting the awning up so sitting down and watching other people do it is gonna be a toughie!
I'm taking a pair of socks to knit, a tam to crochet and a dishcloth to knit in case i can't concentrate on anything else. I think it's this headache, i just can't concentrate, i am finding it difficult to read too :o( It seemed to ease off for a few days but now it is back with a vengeance so i wonder if the painkillers i was taking for my sore tummy were also helping my poorly head? Something to discuss with the neurologist in June anyway.
Goddddd, must stop whinging!
I've made another dishcloth, this one is the Four Corners one, but i really don't like it, the holes seem way tooooo big that form the corner to middle lines but as it wasn't for me i had to be happy with it and send it on it's way to Germany ;o) i've sent LOTS of parcels this week and it felt really good to be surprising so many people :o)
I've sent a set of stitchmarkers for the "Stitchmarker Swappydoodle" at CaftyThreads, a parcel to my SP (obviously can't say what it is in case she reads this blog by some freaky coincidence *lol*), i've also sent some needles off to Germany that i bought in Lidls which is weird as Lidl is a German company but they didn't have any in their stores *lol* and i also sent 2 sockbags off which were on offer at CraftyThreads :o) There's only one left now from the 4 i originally listed, two have gone to new homes plus a larger version of the dinky gingham bag which i am using myself as it's perfectly dishcloth sized :oD
I feel sure there was something else that went off but it's escaped me for the time being... my memory really is rubbish!!
Well, i hope you all have a wonderfully spiffing weekend, i know i will! *hugs*
