Good Morning!
My last post was *YIKES* in mid-March.
Things just became very hectic around here and I blinked and boom, it was April.
(Two kiddos hit by a nasty stomach bug stinks…but everyone is feeling better now!)
I’ve continued to work on my scrapy magic ball afghan and I think one more ball will do complete it!
Then it is stash yarn for a border (I have some RedHeart Super Saver in Oatmeal that will work well).
I have 4 rows left on my Night Shift Shawl….LITERALLY FOUR ROWS…and yet, I can’t get past the finish line…I seriously need some uninterrupted time to power through this and the cast off.
I ordered some lovely yarn from England that is destined to become a Shift Cowl (pattern by DreaReneeKnits).
I finished one of Mary’s socks and am ready to do the heel on the second one (this is a travel project so it has taken a bit to complete).
Sewing wise, I have started a Thomas the Tank Engine Quilt for Eamon using a panel I purchased.
I recovered some more pillows for my living room.
(Still loving my free Kenmore Ultra 12 Stitch machine-found via my local FB free site)
I purchased some lovely Cotten & Steel fabric to make some Gypsum Skirts and a Hinderland Dress (both patterns by Sew Liberated).
However, these are on hold a bit as I have started BeachBody’s Ultimate Fix and am hoping my measurements will be a tad smaller soon.
Looking back of the past few years, I really tried to remember when I felt my best (inside and out) and low and behold it was when I was following the 21 Day Fix Program, so I am one week in (again!).
The biggest change I can tell you is my sleep.
Just one week in and I am sleeping better than I have in about 3 years, not great probably by most people’s standards, but so much better for me!
Thats it for this week!
I hope to resume an (at least) once a week posting schedule.
Can’t wait to see your new seing projects. Sorry about the stomach bug; when my little had it as a toddler we made her wear the bib with the cupped bottom so she wouldn’t get vomit everywhere, LOL! Glad you’re taking care of yourself. I started running on our Bowflex 3x a week and changed my weights to 2x a week with a couple more repetitions because I hated having to do them 3x a week. I feel better and am noticing the differences.

So glad you’ve found a routine that works for you. So key otherwise I know I don’t stick with it!
