Home Sweet Home

I'm so sick of seeing that stupid bunny and horse every time I come here to access the blogs of my cyber-friends, that I simply must write this post even though I have very little to write about.

This has been my place of abode for the past two weeks ..........

yes - two weeks in hospital with the most excruciating pain I think I've ever had. They say it is a pinched sciatic nerve and the pain went from my left buttock right down the leg and into my foot. I was allowed to come home yesterday afternoon but am still on a concoction of drugs I normally wouldn't dream of taking and one in particular that I seriously want to be off as soon as possible.  I will be seeing my GP on Friday so hopefully she will start the 'weaning' regime.

When I was able to sit on a chair, I started on this baby blanket ... (a nicer blue than the pic shows)

I needed something I could work without a pattern and recalled a blanket Pammy Sue made a little while ago which I liked a lot so decided to make one too. I'm using a 4.00mm Etimo hook and King Cole Superball Baby DK which I bought online from Springwools in Ireland. It comes in a 250g ball but its now obvious that I'm going to need more than the one ball. Unfortunately they don't have the same dye lot but I've ordered more and am hoping that the difference won't be noticeable.  Fingers crossed !!

Wanna see the mischief my little mate Madison has been getting up to while I was away? (Actually she's not so little but I wouldn't want to hurt her feelings by saying she's fat) ...

Will I or won't I ?? Decisions, decisions .... ahhh why not ....

Hmmmm - not too bad but not as warm as my other bed ......

Wake me in the morning .... preferably at breakfast time !!

Thanks for visiting.
