Count Down

I don't know why but thought a new color would be nice to start a new year's blog. Maybe it is because it is almost the valentine month; or it could be that I am seeing through redden eyes from getting my tax information together. Which ever it is please humor me.

The count down begins to Paqui's last week before Friday, the day scheduled day for her c-section. She tells me she can hardly get up and down due to the baby's exceptional growth this past month. Due to her high risk pregnancy she continues to get physiological ultra sounds every week. So far mother and baby are scoring 100 percent on the tests and last weeks baby weight was 8 pounds and 11 ounces! Monday Paqui will start her leave since it is pretty difficult to crawl around vehicles looking for damage. Ha!

Ok, I know what you are wondering. Why the picture of a person using forceps to pull a tooth? Well the answer is, that's exactly what happened to me last Monday. My dentist tried to pull my tooth, OOCH! He deadened the area with four or more injections and pulled with all his might. Still no success and then he tried to break the tooth with his drill and then I FELT IT FOR SURE!  Finally he stopped and said I would have to see the oral surgeon. My appointment isn't until this Monday for a consultation. Mean while I am nursing a very sensitive and somewhat achy tooth. 

Linda, who I have mentioned several times throughout my blogs is my friend and business partner. She gave me a beautiful table top cover for Christmas that she quilted. I wanted to wait and take a picture of it until after the Christmas decorations came down. She does beautiful work and has her own very expensive quilting machine in her basement. It is huge! Needless to say I took a beginner's quilting class from her several years ago and flunked. I am glad she is my friend, I reap the benefits :-) Thank you Linda for everything you do for me!

I am changing my sunrise picture to one I took the other morning after I took my spa, I call it " A Knobby Sunrise Over A Knobby Hill".
