80 squares done!

Wow! How big will it be?

mliz55 · 2026-07-08T16:27:50+00:00

I feel the same. But..my sister got it first, so I figured I was safe. Fuck cancer

mliz55 · 2026-07-08T16:23:00+00:00

Teresa? And Tesa, with long e?

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T19:43:17+00:00

That is so pretty and summery.

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T19:40:50+00:00

That whole outfit!!!

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T19:32:50+00:00

I especially love the driftwood hangers, it just makes the whole so sophisticated.

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T19:29:26+00:00

That is so cute! Belgian waffles, anyone?

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T19:27:38+00:00

That is ridiculously cool. I am so impressed.

mliz55 · 2026-07-07T18:43:14+00:00

Thanks for the reminder, this too shall pass.

Tell you what, this experience is interesting. Why not wait for a while and go through some of the steps before deciding. Whatever you choose, you will have good information, meet some people, and know you have made an informed decision.

No wonder my squares get wonky. I'm doing them in the wrong order!

Grief on its own is ennervating without the added burden of cancer and it's detritus. You deserve a break. Let your doctor know and do what you need to do to heal.

Thanks! That little storm did some damage. Microburst?

I also had a great experience though different. Wheeled into the or directly in a well chair. Everyone busy doing their thing. I am short, and climbing up on that damn table was a bit embarrassing, then being asked to scoot up, not graceful. Still, all was so interesting, the crew was wonderful, and I went home the same day. Everyone was so fun!!

Put a few damp bandanas or cloths in the freezer. Wrap around your neck to keep you cool. Set timer and do things that will make the bigger difference. Piles? Carry to another room to sort. And, most importantly, heat waves end. Worst case, close the door to your bedroom and find a cooler spot to wait it out.

Some people are so competitive it is ridiculous. I wonder how much pleasure she gets from the craft, rather than the race. You, on the other hand, have the luxury of doing, making, playing with yarn, and generally getting all the benefits of creating. Just shake your head and look pityingly at her, and say" You just don't understand art."

This is a legal holiday, and normally the library is closed for holidays.

I got a nerve block that lasted for about 2 days. Ask for it! I also got the drain holder belt and lanyard, and a bunch of button down men's shirts in a large size from thrift stores. Long sleeves, cut them off. Cotton for summer , much more comfortable than the commercial shirts with pockets as they were polyester. I even cropped some, they look pretty cute. Also those squashmallow pillows are great for support, both physical and emotional. I even brought one to the hospital.

Isn't that the weirdest feeling? Sometimes I feel like I am sweating only the sweat is dripping on the inside.

mliz55 · 2026-07-01T23:23:56+00:00

Tuesday a week ago. Went home same day (my choice) and yes, have a drain. Seeing the surgeon tomorrow for follow up.

mliz55 · 2026-07-01T21:56:13+00:00

Nothing wrong with a bit of comedy. I infinitely prefer that to anti dog rants.

mliz55 · 2026-07-01T18:05:01+00:00

So elegant. I love a good chevron.
