Oh dear...

Morning!

Thank you for all your comments and well wishes after my last post.

After a few days rest with my feet up and stitching away I was up and ready this morning all set for work...it happened again...thankfully it wasn't as painful as last Tuesday but still enough to stop me in my tracks. After about half an hour trying to get through I spoke to the doctors for an appointment.

After going to visit the doctor I came out with tablets galore and a sick note for the rest of this week...I know that might sound good to some people but I am feeling rather fed up of it now :( I can't even go for a run or swimming, and I'm struggling to find things to fill my day to distract me and when I'm bored I eat...not good.

Sorry for the rambling, now what you actually come here for, some stitching pictures!

This weekend I worked on Mini The Black, here is how it looked before - my block of 310!

After the weekend here is how it looks now, I think the horses mane is looking really great :)


I'm going to carry on with this, I would really like to get the page finished then decide if to carry on or pick another project up.

Until next time!

What a strange week!

Well this week certainly didn't pan out like I thought it would!

Tuesday morning I was woken by excruciating pain in my upper stomach, I'm talking me on my hand and knees screaming in agony! So after ringing the NHS line and been told it would be an hour before a nurse rang back we decided to make our way to the hospital.

After lots of tests and xrays they determined it was gallstones! Ouch. So I haven't been back to work since as they said I needed to rest and David, along with two of my bosses, told me to take the rest of the week off. I just have to wait for some more test results to come back and visit my doctor next week.

It could of just been a one off but if it starts happening on a regular basis I may need surgery to remove it. Eek!

Between that, and a couple of meals out here and there over the weekend I only lost 1/2lb this week, but I'll take that. A loss is a loss!

The only good news I have is because I have been cooped up at home with my feet up it has meant I got some stitching done.

First I stitched my small for the small sal, sorry but you will have to wait to see it though!

Next I carried on with Row Of Cats and I'm pleased to say the second cat is now complete, along with both of their toys too!


I've since pulled out Mini The Black again, and I've done some stitches other than DMC 310! Woohoo! But don't get too excited, it has only been browns and greys haha! I think I am going to continue working on it this weekend and I will post a photo after that :)

Have a great weekend everyone!
