Catchin' up

Isn't this adorable? I received it from Kim in our Autumn Friendship Exchange over at my Hand-Dids group. It is a Crabapple Hill pattern. LOVE it! Some of the embroidery is satin stitch over wool. Really makes it pop! I am still working on her's and my other partner, Vickie. Who has a newly released blog. She has kept it in lurkdom for sometime, but is "out" now. hahaha Send her some blog love if you get the chance.

I have been taking treatments for my liver (It might possibly help my lupus also.). Infusions once a week that are partially chemo, about 1/2. No appetite except for toast and applesauce. Penny picked me up a jar of Nutella and I have only ate out of it once! But my pneumonia is getting better. It just doesn't take much for these junky lungs of mine to get junkier.

My fur babies sunbathing. Timmy is really growing! I had a canning jar of flowers on the dining room table. Had being the key word here. He would pluck one out and then toss it over the edge. Meow his lil head off (He is a major crybaby by the way.) Until he got Toby's attention. Who would promptly chew it up. Teamwork! I can just imagine that he is saying to Toby, " Hey Bubby. Hey Bubby. Wanna lil snackie?? Come and get it!". hahaha They are constantly playing chase and chewing on each other. Timmy starts it just as much as Toby. Poor ole Lydia wants no part of either of them. I am so afraid she is about to go across Rainbow Bridge. She will be 16 next month. That is terribly old for a Persian.

Hopefully we will be zoo bound on Saturday. IFFFFF it isn't rainy as it has been all week since Sunday. Just will have to see what happens.

I am going to be posting about the Quilt Camp/Retreat I am hosting in November 2010 soon. I have hosted an annual one with my Backporch Friends girls since 2001. This one will have those from that group who can make it and is open to the public. It is limited and I have some signed up already. Just want to have my wits about me when I post. Might be a day or so or year! :o)

Loving this drag/resize thingy on the pics. Very handy! Thank you Blogger. This is a great free service. I really appreciate it.

Well off to take another rest. Tootles from a rainy Indiana.

ps: I got my first blog spam today on 3 posts. What is up with that? I just deleted it.

Which came first, the liver or the gizard?

Hey does anyone take Ursodiol or Ciclosporin for primary biliary cirrhosis? I am NOT having fun with these medicines. Just wondering if this is the norm. Not getting alot of feedback from the doctors. I realize the options of medicines for me is limited to some extent. My regular pharmacist is on vacay and I miss him. He answers so many more of my questions than any of my doctors.

Anyways. TattingChic is excited to win her prize. Hahaha hope she will be AS happy when she receives it! :o)

Here is a funny on me. I had Toby out to go potty. The older neighbor gentleman speaks hello as he is putting up his lawn mower. I say hello. Toby is still thinking about going to potty. So I am just standing there. Small talk is needed. I ask him if he thinks it is going to rain. AND I stand before God when I say this, the word RAIN was just out of my mouth when it started POURING!!!!! Like buckets from heaven!!! The sun is shining brightly. Toby hates rain, he makes his potty and we are off running to the house. The neighbor is laughing his head off calling, yes sissy I think it is going to rain! It was hilarious. :o) But I still hope to not see him again for a few days. LOLOL

Adding this one in after I posted. Just went down the hall in the dark and something ran across my foot. I am screaming...mousemouseMOUSE! And then the mouse meowed at me. LOL I had forgotten about Timmy. My heart is still racing. And prob his is too! In my defense, I am terrified of mice and it is 3am. That is my story and I am sticking to it. But I cannot wait until he gets a bit bigger. Timmy is getting a collar with a jinglebell on it! And maybe reflective tape. I am just saying.
