The ever famished sleep monster

Still not quite there, but I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Went to the doctor Wednesday and he ordered blood tests. still waiting for the results. He also ordered a mild sedative to help with my sleep. I am generally opposed to such measures. Earlier this year they tried giving me strong pain medication to help me sleep. It did wonders for the pain..not for the sleep. I am to the...

New Floss

FairylandAfter my realization that I just couldnt cut it selling my floss at the price I did I had to think long and hard on what I wanted to do. I didn't want to increase the price so much that no one could afford it anymore. I would price myself right out of business! I also couldn't continue to make it if was just going to wear me out and have such dismal returns. I listened to everyone's advice...

Quick update

I'm going to do a quick post with no pictures just to let you know that I am still here! I still have no energy, and have been getting no better. I am going to the doc this week to have him check for iron deficiency. Craving ice, insomnia, extreme fatigue and muscle cramps add up to something....I have been doing a little, but slowly. I did some dyeing and will try to post pics tomorrow or the next...

I'm still alive!

I'm sorry that I dropped off the earth there for awhile. I'm afraid this last week had me totally overwhelmed!This last weekend was the wedding of our friends. The husband has been a dear friend of my husband for a long time. D was one of his witnesses at the wedding. Something I didn't realize till this last week. Last I talked to you all I had a fever.Since then I have had:An unexpected guest for...

Small World

I promised you a post yesterday but instead I slept! I went to class and realized in the middle of it that I had a fever. I was wondering why the talkative giirl on the other side of the class was getting on my nerves more than usual *grin* Anyway...I slept my afternoon away and then couldnt sleep once again last night. So as I tried to drift off to sleep I had an idea come to me, and I am excited...

A fresh look

I have spent the last few days taking an assessment of my goals, activities, projects, etc. One thing I have come to realize is that making floss is a wonderful activity. I love making it and I love the results. I do not make enough money off of it to justify making it though. I realized that when I priced my floss I tried to keep within the bounds of other's prices. I didn't do it the way I have...

Sorry for my absence

Ok, I admit it, I have been avoiding my blog because I have been in a foul mood. It just wouldn't let up. I was ready to just quit making things, and that bugs me. So instead of forcing things I just quit. Only thing I did was work on my skirt and top, which doesnt really count. I think it was needed.D and I took off for a fun weekend trip up to La Roule which is east of here. Its an old tobacco...

MIA

Sorry I have been MIA, had to step away for awhile to refresh my batteries.I promise a real post tomorrow! Tonight, I am recooperating from my short trip aw...

The terrible, no good, very bad day

Yesterday was the pits.I mean really! I stayed home from French class because the day before had taxed my poor toe so bad that it ended up being just as bad as the day before. It had been so much better but all the walking, going up and down stairs and just not being able to soak it and keep it up was too much for it.So I decided to take it easy and care for it yesterday. I planned on spending the...
