Breaktime.

It rained hard all night.  Our back yard is practically flooded, the first time in the 7 years we have lived here.

The slush on the roads is deep, and it is still raining.  And while it is messy and annoying, my fear is what it will be like when the temps drop.

Oh, winter.

I did so well walking right into the first of January, but for the last week and a half, between my headache and the icy roads and sidewalks, I have not done much walking.  Roy looks at me with those big browns, and I feel guilty.

This headache has been an 8-10 for four days now.  I can't really figure out what changed to make it this bad.

I went to the studio this morning, with a few chores that I wanted to get done.

First, I had some orders to pack up.

Then I had three sets of placemats I wanted to put on my web site.

Here are the pink ones.......can you see Tweety peaking out at you???

These cream and green ones are my favorites.

Right now, I have about 38 sets of placemats.  I told you January was placemat month.
Yeehaw.

I knew I wasn't going to last long at the studio.   I haven't had to come home midday in a few weeks, but that was then, and this is now.

Sydney just watched me doing what I had to do.
She has molded this box to her shape.  None of the other three cats dare to get near "her box", and I have left it on the counter, just for her.
I couldn't resist putting her name on it.

Sydney says:

You look like crap.  You'd better go home.

And even though I had every intention of sewing the hems on this 'tote bags' in progress, I did go home about noon.

I came home, ate something, and took to the couch with a heating pad on the back of my neck, and sweet boy Roy.

I have an appointment with a headache/pain doctor in about 10 days.

I am focusing on that.  Getting there.  

Getting someplace where there is no headache.

Yay.
