Missed again last week, been busy and been unwell. A couple of blood tests and a couple of scans, turns out I'm in menopause but I was pretty sure I had already gone through it about 6 years ago. Hard to tell when you have had a hysterectomy so one of the scans was to see if there is anything going on with my ovaries.
In the meantime I am on HRT for a couple of months until things settle down and hopefully get ok results back next week on the scans. I have slept 3 nights straight which is wonderful because I think it is a month since I've had a decent sleep if not longer because I usually sleep badly for a week and then sleep like the dead for a night or 2, 3 good nights in a row is unheard of. Got to say I am already feeling 100% better than I have in a long time.
Hubby and I went for a walk this morning and I felt really good. We went and did another couple of jobs at Maestro's house yesterday. He is working and at trade school and hasn't much down time. I'm waiting for him to get sick, he says he is going to have a few days off so I might try and get him to get a flu shot he gets really sick every winter and takes weeks to get over it.
Crafting wise I'm dividing my time between appliqué and crochet. I have 4 squares finished for my infinity scarf, not sure if it is going to be long enough, probably only have enough wool for another 3 squares and then a border so it will probably end up being just a scarf.
Maestro was complaining about being cold while watching the footy so I pulled out some granny squares that I have worked on a couple of years ago and I might do a couple of bigger blocks and use these as a border to make a throw for his lounge. It's wool so it might end up being a bit scratchy but should be warm enough for a bit until I can make something from cotton that I have in the stash to make him something big and masculine.
Progress shots on my appliqué project. I'm really glad Anni's style is pretty rustic as these aren't too perfect, but it should look nice and fun when its finished.

Glad the doctor was able to get you started on something that is helping with the not feeling well. Grad Girl has become a believer in flu shots, she skipped one a few years ago and really paid for it by being really, really sick for a couple of weeks. I don't have to remind her to get one now. You've got some fun projects in the works, hopefully you can get some good stitching time in this week.
