In Progress. Of considering the way to go forward. (or backward)....in Cloth and Life.
I'm thinking that the other multi colored stripe will work better (the one inside the lime green). And possibly more lime green. I have been known to un-sew an entire block because one fabric just doesn't work as I thought it would. It's always the right thing to do- Un-sew. Start over.
I wish I could Un-Sew and Do Over my Life ..."Start Over" making different choices. Perhaps even be happy. I know EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD NOT DO AGAIN. Number one- NOT get married.
1. Only two "walks" to the corner and back and less swelling in my legs and ankles. I was needing more "circulation" I guess??? will continue and possibly some day cross the road for a longer walk? Or just walk my street twice. But that is weeks or months away.
2. NYT sent me a recipe for a Very Simple Blueberry Cornmeal Cake this morning. Square pan....I started reading the comments...no one EVER likes the recipes as printed. NO ONE. I have a bag of frozen Maine Wild Blueberries in the freezer and cornmeal in a jar in the cupboard. This is do-able. With what I have ... no changes to the recipe. In Future- I will store the cornmeal in the freezer...plenty of open space in there these days.
3. Son and Daughter took the convertible sports car out for lunch...yesterday. Daughter looked like it had been "too much" for her. I went once....and had great difficulty getting up and out of the car..... like getting up from the ground that day I fell just after husband died.......I was sure I would be crumpled on the street until I died. Or in that car....forever.
4. I am reading Center's Love Haters, again. 7 day Library Loan this time.. I want to go to the bookstores to see if either of the two stores have this book in stock....it's going slower this time and I stopped for awhile and just sat and cried....I'm crying now.....I am fine but for some reason, I am crying. I cried, as usual at the end of Nora Goes Off Script. I think there are other books in my bookcase that make me cry every time. I think both are by Center- The Bodyguard and the RomCommers. Bet Me by Cruisie also makes me cry. Every time. Jane....that one does me in also at the end. Perhaps I just need to cry?
5. The Soulmate Equation... that one...wow. Breaks my heart every single time.
6. Today is Pizza Sunday but Formula One is still on vacation, I think. so I can "do my own things" today. Which is breakfast, Sunday Paper, sudoko puzzle and walk to end of the street and back...and then Love Haters and tears......which is just fine...there is always a happy ending to look forward to.. and being rescued by a helicopter and The Swimmer.

You will be surprised at how quickly you build up walking endurance. Just add a short distance every few day or every week.
I have a habit of ripping out knitting or crochet. I hate when I have uneven tension - it’s so very noticeable to me. So I rip it back to the problem area and then continue. Let me tell you how hard that is to do to a lace shawl.
