Nothing exciting has happened here since I posted yesterday. I went out and got a haircut and did some grocery shopping this morning. The. I came home and vacuumed all of the animal hair up again around the entire house and now I’m going to sit and do some knitting and rest my back. The G.I. doctor called this morning and scheduled yet another colonoscopy for the middle of December. Yippee yay! It’s only been three weeks since the last one and I’m not ready to contemplate that prep again! This Wednesday is the nerve conduction study at the neurologist for my back, leg and arm. I’m hoping they can figure out what’s happening with my back. This is kind of my last resort. If the neurologist can’t figure it out, I don’t know where to go from here.
Have I ever shown you this blanket that I crocheted several years ago? Pearl, who I told you about recently, gave me this pattern and this afghan is big enough for a king size bed. I love it. Very simple and mindless and yet I get a lot of compliments on it when people stay in our guest room. I have washed this dozens of times and I think it still looks nice
I’m going to do some knitting on Brad’s socks this afternoon. I’m about halfway down the foot of the first sock and both heels are turned. It usually fairly easy knitting from here on out.
I hope you’re all having a happy Monday.

Love that blanket and sure hope you can get some relief for your back! How do you find the next pattern for the Christmas blanket?
ReplyDeleteHope you’re able to get some results- praying for you and the doctors.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you're struggling with your bad again: health issues are stressful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pattern in the blanket! A modified Granny Square!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get your back problem solved soon. Ack...colonoscopy certainly there is a better way to prep than drinking all that stuff:(
You are still in our daily prayers Betsy, hopefully you will have some answers soon. We have a lot of deer here on the Island it is always a joy to get a glimpse of them.

Pretty blanket Betsy! So sorry about yet ANOTHER colonoscopy - that prep is NOT fun. And your back! Hoping you get some relief very soon.
ReplyDeleteIn my post tomorrow I write about a potholder I found while cleaning that my grandmother had bought me at a church bazaar when I was just a little girl. Your blanket looks very similar. I thought that potholder was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Your blanket is a beauty too!
ReplyDeleteSending prayers your way sweet friend. Seems like everything is hitting you at once. ((hugs)). Love, love, love the blanket. I just might have to put the KAL aside for a while and crochet something now. Wishing you a lovely day sweet friend. Blessings always. ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteOH Betsy. Im praying for you. Even if nothing is new, I enjoy my blog pals posts!!!! THat blanket is just beautiful. You put a lot of love into it
ReplyDeleteGee, you just don't get a break on the health stuff. I'm mad at the universe on your behalf. You are such a good person, giving and giving and helping others and so devout. You deserve all the best of health. I love that blanket, thanks for showing us. Hang in there, I hope the doctors figure out what's going on with your back. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope that you get some answers soon and feel better. I love that afghan/blanket too. Have a nice Thanksgiving! Nancy
ReplyDeleteO am enjoying your everyday posting. Since I read on my tablet, it's so easy to just keep reading and I forget to come over to the blog and comment. Thank you for the comment on my last post. October will be up after Thanksgiving, I hope. :) I hope you get answers on your back. That's such an annoying and debilitating pain. And I'm definitely feeling for you about the colonoscopy. You are such a kind and wonderful person, it hurts my heart that you are dealing with these problems. I'm sending you lots of healing and living thoughts. Hugs, Sharon
