WEEK 3 OF YOP 15

 

Hey there!  Time to talk about my past week.  While there was not a lot of crafting going on, there was a lot going on.

I finished the last eyeglass case.

They have all been sealed and are waiting to go to their new homes.  

I have started another Diamond Art project.

I am almost half way done with this one.  Hubby fell in love with this so it will probably go in his office area when completed and framed.

I also worked on his RCR sock a bit this week.

I added about 20 rows to it.  The color keeps calling to me which makes it easy for me to pick it up and add a few rows now and then.

The best part of the week is the new crafting area we now have for our legos and diamond art.  WARNING!!!!!    Crappy photo coming.

You can not really see it in the photo but, this table has 2 drawers under the wood top.  The drawers span the entire length of the table.  I am able to store my lightboard and stand as well as my tools used for the Diamond Art in one drawer. The other drawer is for hubby's crafts.  The table raises and lowers so it is comfortable to whoever is using it.  I can sit there and still watch TV with hubby.  I had been working on a TV tray and it was a challenge to say the least.

I finished a book this week.  The Watchmaker's Daughter.  It was an enjoyable mystery and #1 in a series.  I started the second book in the series on Thursday.  The Mapmaker's Apprentice.  I get all my books through the Libby app.  So much easier than heading downtown to our library and trying to find a book there and then needing to take it back after 2 weeks.  This way I just find the book I want, check it out and read it on my kindle app and return it electronically.  I have read 14 books so far this year.  There are 5 more I tried to read but could never 'get into' them.  I go through spurts where reading is all I want to do and then times when I could care less about picking up a book. GASP!

Hubby and I just finished up watching all 5 seasons of 'The Chosen'..  We also watched the first season of 'Ballard'.  Hopefully they will do a second season of that.  Now to find another series.  Any suggestions?  

In other news................I ended up in the ER again this week.  I had mentioned, last week, I was having some tachycardia from the meds they gave me for my pleurisy.  Well, it did not improve over the weekend.  I headed to my primary Dr office Monday morning and was told I was in Afib again.  Luckily, I had hubby with me.  So we went to the ER to get fixed up.  They did an electrical cardioversion to get my heart back into normal sinus rhythm.  And, before you ask, they knocked me out for the procedure so I felt nothing.  I went for a follow up with my cardiologist on Friday and everything looks good.  Seems the steroids I got at the hospital as well as the ones I was given to take at home, caused the issue this time.  It took me a couple of days to bounce back from everything but I am back to my normal onery self.

Hubby and I did not have any days of being with Josh, last week.  Our youngest son and his wife took all the times needed to give us a little break.  It was greatly appreciated.  We go back to splitting shifts with them this week.  Those days are when I get the most of my knitting done!

Here is your chuckle for the week...............

Until Next Time.....................Happy Crafting!!!!!!!!!!
