A Little Progress

No more making up finished as yet but I have stitching and knitting.

A little progress was made on HAED Guardian. Not as much as I would have liked but I did finish my 8th page and gridded ready to start page 9. I do still have to fill in where I ripped out the metallic on the angel's wings yet but will do that a bi at a time. I have to say that my love of HAEDs has been renewed and at the moment I'm at my happiest with my stitching when I'm stitching on the two I have on the go. 

Monday was BBD SAL night with Barb and I had quite a good evening on this. I love how it's looking on the pink fabric.

Not much stitching was accomplished last night so not much progress on HAED QS Holly Fairy. I did finish the black along the top 20 rows of the first page. Yay I can move onto a different colour now:)

Sunday I picked up my ornament for the Christmas All Year Round SAL and did a little bit. I need to get this finished before Monday!

Knitting now. My knitting seems to call to me quite a lot lately so I'm making quite good progress on my Arsenic and Old Lace Afghan. I finished the first square which doesn't look that square and also managed to finish the second square at craft club yesterday. The first one is quite tight and the second one isn't so I shall have to be careful when I join the first row of squares to the second row. I'm really enjoying this though.

I have sorted through my chart stash and been quite brutal so have updated my for sale/ trade list which you can find in the tabs at the top of my blog. If you are interested in anything please email me ( email in my profile). Prices do not include postage.

Yesterday I had my second post surgery follow-up appointment for the gynae surgery I had back in May. Well what a carry on! When I went for my original appointment and my first follow-up I was seen very quickly. This time I was called almost an hour after my appointment should have been. We were so fed-up! My DH took me and Abi came with us as we were popping to see Jess ( she goes to the uni in the city where the hospital is) afterwards. It was only when I went and asked when I was going to be seen that a nurse wrote on the board that they were an hour behind. There was only one doctor there from my consultant's team. Not very good. Anyway I explained my concerns about not feeling any different and she said that if she examined me she'd only find what the last doctor had in that everything was healing nicely and looked as it should. I think she must have seen the look on my face as she did go on to say that she would examine me to put my mind at ease. She said that everything was fine and it's never going to feel the same as it did but now I really feel as though I've gone through surgery for nothing. I just may as well have not bothered. She also made me bleed which she did not tell me about but I saw the instruments in the disposal bag when she'd finished and walked away. I was so p****d that I didn't ask why. I am guessing that I won't be seen again. I just wanted to cry when we got back to the car. To top it off the short journey from the hospital to Jess' house took an hour because of road works ( yeah road works and rush hour) and by the time we'd got to her house, done a little shopping in Boots, grabbed a bite to eat and got home it was nearly 8 pm! We left home at 3 pm. Needless to say I couldn't wait to settle down with some stitching and watch Holby City! 

Do you remember several weeks ago I had my wisdom tooth out? Well my tongue still feels strange! Apparently it's normal providing it tingles. Lol! 

Well enough of my ramblings. I'd better get off here and do a little housework before I go my exercises.

Take care everyone.

With much love

Sally
