Long overdue update!
As I grow older, it seems that my intestines slowly give up, one by one…Long story short: after a weekend feeling sick and having significant pain I went to my gp monday morning at 9. Few hours later same day I was in hospital, got a morfine shot ( hallelujah when you’re in pain) and brought to the operating theatre for emergency surgery. Nasty infected and necrotic piece of my insides was removed a day later I was home again.
Recovery was less quick and easy. I kept a mild fever for over 5 weeks (!) and had no stamina, energy or strength whatsoever. At first I thought I could piece all day and make at least half a hand sewn quilt. Instead I read all of the 8 outlander books, took frequent naps and went to bed at 8.
I did sew something though..
And I made lots of felt autumn leaves for youngest DD for her work project
And now, with the fever gone, I’m finally getting more energy back although I’m not there yet.
Meanwhile I found something to embroider again.
Very optimistically I choose a 32count linnen in charcoal. With enough lighting I can manage. I think..LOL
