New Beginnings

I decided to not wait until January to begin my January journal quilt, since I had a good idea what I want to do. So I started it last night. But during the night, I woke up and thought of some changes I want to make. So it's not totally different from the beginning idea, but different enough that I have to all the way back to the drawing board and do some erasing. I cut and sewed a little last night; and none of that will do now. Sigh.

My back is still hurting like crazy. I'm not going to Dr. M. today because 1) I just don't feel like going, and 2) I don't have any confidence that he has anything to help me, except maybe pain pills, which I'm just not ready for yet. I'm handling it by lying down every hour or so. Maybe I'll go to the doctor tomorrow. Maybe not.

Cold and cloudy here. Vann and Phillip have gone to hunting camp, leaving me and Sophie to fend for ourselves. They'll be gone for two nights--back on Saturday.

Maybe I'll have enough done with the journal quilt (if I don't change my mind again) so that I can post a photo later this evening. We'll see.

I think you're smart to start your journal quilt when the mood strikes! Isn't that the best way to be creative? :) I hope your back gets to feeling better soon. There's no pain like back pain. ((hugs))

You sound like me--wait until it doesn't hurt. I managed to wait until morning to see the doctor on a dislocated shoulder because I didn't want to go to the emergency room.

I am working on my 12 x 12 today. Is that what you mean by Journal Quilt?

I think your quilt looks great. If there is an accupuncturist in the area where you are, you might try it. My husband has back problems and it always works wonders.
