Who hasn't wished for some extra stitching time......? I know I have..........yesterday I found myself with 12 hours of extra stitching time........but the circumstances were not exactly fun! I had an appointment yesterday morning and on the off chance I would have to wait I threw my little stitching-on-the-go bag into my handbag and off we (the Prince and I) went.............the Prince had been suffering from a headache for three days....I had been nagging him to see someone about it...(that wasn't what caused his headache!!) and after my appointment he was still in a lot of pain so we went to the emergency department of a large hospital about an hour away from home...........................we got there at midday and I left at midnight leaving the Prince hooked up to drips etc to try to bring down his blood pressure....(and no.....it wasn't bought on by seeing my credit card bill!) we had quite a long wait to see the doctor......but once we got in they were certainly very thorough with their investigations......all seems to be ok...the headache has gone.....but they are still monitoring his blood pressure so he is still there.......hopefully to be released tomorrow!
So I had plenty of time to stitch to help pass the time while we sat in the waiting room.........
This is a Kathy Schmitz design and is easy to take along when you go out as it is stitched in one colour (black) so no need to change thread colours........I am a big fan of Kathy's patterns.
Chelsea was pleased to see me home last night and raced past me looking for the Prince......she was most upset when she realised I was on my own....and has been looking for him ever since......she has settled down a bit today but I am sure she will be thrilled to see him home tomorrow........as will I!!
A burst of hot weather has fried a lot of the blossoms and flowers in the garden......we are set for another hot one tomorrow....yikes......hopefully not a sign of a long hot summer!! .....we have a couple more months of Spring yet!
'til next time.........................Lorraine
