Getting Back on Track
I hope everyone had a safe and fun holiday weekend! Thank you to everyone who sent their best wishes to me and for my father! It certainly means a lot to know my friends are thinking of us!
Each day I talk with my Dad and I am just thrilled at his progress! The dr. decided he was ready for something other than broth and is letting him begin some soft solid foods! I had to poke some fun with him though and tell him that he never let me have ice cream for breakfast! LOL. I just love hearing him sound better and more like himself each day. Of course, I am getting very antsy to get back up there and see him again! All in good time, I know!
I did manage to pull out Bird in the Bower to work on a bit in the evenings. There are several designs in my stash that are calling my name and I may be giving in to temptation sooner than I would like. I also decided I needed a little bit of pampering so I treated myself to some new floss for now.
I have been rather proud of how I have managed to cut back on my stash purchases lately. I consider floss and fabrics necessities so are never really a part of my stash diets. Of course I made a few purchases last month but I didn't go crazy like I usually do and I have very good since then. I can't make any promises about how much longer this dry spell will last though because I am constantly drooling over all these new designs that keep coming out!
Hopefully I can begin to get my life back into some recognizable order now and do more of things I need and especially enjoy! I hope everyone has a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

I'm glad your father is making good progress at getting better. And I like your attitude about floss and fabric not counting during stash diets! Hey, I might be able to manage that! Maybe.....
Glad to hear your dad is feeling a little better. Ice cream for breakfast - yum!

I'm glad that your father is doing better. I admire your self control and agree with the floss theory!
I'm glad to hear that your father is getting better. My thoughts & prayers go out to you both that he continues to improve!
So very happy that your dad is improving! It is a very hard thing when our parents are ill! I agree, floss and fabric are not stash, you gotta have em!
Threads and fabric don't count in a stash diet, I think, at least not for me. Because how could you stitch all the charts that you own without fabric and tthreads? Lol.
Good to hear that you dad is recovering.
