A Thinking Day
Sometimes there isn’t much local effort to show for a day.
Now that I can start anew deciding how to finish the Santa quilt, there is much to think on for keeping the integrity of the piecing design so the quilting stitches do not take away from the design. I played around with scraps and different colors of threads. I know the time invested will be well worth it.
Today was also a day that I went with Dennis to the eye clinic so I knew what would be going on with his cataract surgery plus the injections that are scheduled for the macular injections. Two set of ears are a good thing. I actually found out that Dennis needs the cataract surgery on both eyes. That bit of news had not come home with Dennis when the initial visit with the specialist had been had. Yup, two sets of ears. In the next weeks, the injection will be taking place as well as the cataract surgeries taking place two weeks apart. These appointments will take us through the middle of March. This explains a lot in regard to what I have noticed with the ole cowboy’s vision.
It was cold today, but it is also a preview of what may be coming for the entire next week. We can take it. Thus far there is not new snow in that same forecast. If we have sun during that week as we have had today, the cold is definitely tolerable.
Be sure to have a full tank of gas in the vehicles. Cars have been known to have mechanical problems in such cold temps. If the motor is not impaired you can stay warm until AAA arrives. It’s a good thing. These older ones do not have any plans to be out and about.
Perhaps tomorrow will be a sewing day and will benefit from the thinking day.
