ANOTHER WEEK

 It's about 4.30 am.  I've had virtually no sleep at all.

We had far too many carbs for dinner, and I'm now paying for it with hot flush after hot flush.

I also still have a headache from hell... and have found Panadol simply does not work.

So I'm trying Nurofen.  Hoping that works.

If not, I'll bring out the big guns and have a Tramadol.

And here we are again.

Facing a possible full week of Lockdown, if not longer.

Stew is not thrilled to be back at work today, even though he is working from home.

I hope to get back to my sewing today, but it will depend on how I'm feeling.  Right now I can see me sleeping half the day away!

ABOVE:  My next Chicken Runner.  Nice and bright.  Lots and lots of stitching to do yet.  I'm pretty sure I've never done a runner with yellow fabric before.

ABOVE:  So true!  Though I'm happy to report my weight is still SLOWLY going down.  Which seems weird as I'm getting virtually no exercise.

I'm probably just making better decisions on what to eat, and how much to eat (except for last night!)

Right,  I'm sitting in me lounge chair at the moment, so you could say 'I'm up already'.  😂😆😋

10.22 am:  And I'm feeling 100% better!

The nurofen must have worked.

So, I have been in my sewing room for the past 2 and a half hours.

ABOVE:  I am making excellent progress on the 2nd Chicken Runner.

Stew has gone into work to get his office chair.

He was using my sewing room chair, but I need it myself.

The girls are sitting in my sewing room staring out the door ... waiting for their Dad to come home again.

6.30 pm:  Hi!

I sewed until lunchtime, then I made Stew and I ham/cheese and pineapple toasted sandwiches for lunch.

Then I crashed and burned, and fell asleep for the afternoon.

BUT... I feel fine.  Just tired.  My arm is sore, but not enough to bother me really.  And the nurofen, well thank god for that shit!

We are not really supposed to have nurofen with diabetes medication, but my Dr said 'sometimes' is OK.

ABOVE:  I have finished this one.  And I only stabbed my fingers twice, sewing on the buttons (eyes).  That is the worst part of the entire job I tell ya.

My next runner will not be a Chicken runner.  I will think about it overnight, and tell ya what the next one will be, tomorrow.

I just spent 1.5 hours making the pattern for tomorrow's runner.  It's another one I'm really going to enjoy making.

Time to sign off for the day.  Catch ya tomorrow.
