I'm not having much excitement around here!

It seems my blog friends are doing some creative things...Melodye is showing some of the quilts she has made during the years and there's a story that seems to go with each one...the quilts are gorgeous and makes me want to "get the needle going"...but when I remember and realize the work that goes into one ...I sit back in the "Chair Bed" and say to myself..
"you need more rest Missy" and silently drift back into a daydream state :o)
This morning I had to push myself out the door for exercise class...and was happy to get back home... Cecil and I had a few errands to tend to
and they simply wore me out in the end...the day seemed to fly by...so to bed early tonight.
I think it's because I'm getting older, plus the illness..that I need more hours of sleep..especially when I awaken in the middle of the night and it takes me a couple of hours to drift off again...
I remember when I would rise and be busy the whole day into the next day...especially if I was doing some remodeling or making an outfit that had to be ready for Church or any other occasion I would be attending..especially when I was a "skinny Minnie" a yard of fabric would make me an outfit...(wish I had saved a few of those high fashion items, I do still have many of the Vogue patterns, just couldn't part with them)...That gives me a good idea for a nice old fashioned post :o)

Exercise class and running errands sounds like plenty enough excitement for one day to me, Ginny. Especially when you are still recovering from being ill.

Take all the time you need to rest and get well. No sense in over doing it and getting yourself sick again.

An old fashioned post would be fun. I'll look forward to reading it. :)

Exercise class. I dunno. You have more energy than I do.

The exercise class was the brain child of my Cardiologist from the influence of my son...yuck! I have to admit I feel more energized afterwards...Ginny

Thanks for the introduction to Melodye and her beautiful quilts. I just paid her a visit thanks to you. Glad to hear Cardiac Rehab gives you more energy. (even though you still say "yuck" about it!)
