Time Much Needed

I got to spend several hours with Mom today - and it was SO needed! We have always been really close, and these last few months we haven't had much time to spend together, and what time we have spent together has been rather intense because of all of the family stuff that's been going on.

Today we got to mostly just BE together. Oh we still had stuff we were doing, and we are still both processing through the grief of losing Granny, but it was much more relaxed than any time we've spent in a long time! She drove me to a doc appointment, we went to a craft store, and we did a bunch of crafty stuff together. It was really nice. I think we both feel a lot better having spent that time together!

In my Natural Environment

I confess, I am a crafting addict. There's no way around this truth, it's just the way it is! I usually don't take my beads along with me because the bead weaving is too easy to make a mess with. Well, I take it along to things like craft fairs, but not doctors offices where I'm going to be getting up and down, nope, that's what I take my fiber arts projects along on!

What was I doing in the doctors office this time? I'll give you a hint...look what I'm doing with the doctors stool... yah, I sprained my ankle again. I swear I wasn't doing anything I shouldn't have been either! Just walking down a flight of stairs. Not rushing either. And, fortunately, holding on to the handrail so I didn't go pitching headlong when I rolled my ankle.

I did go see the doc yesterday. Just as I thought, it's nothing serious. Just painful and making me sick to my stomach. Keeping it elevated and icing it :) I'm sure I'll be back to normal in the next few days! Hope you all are doing better than I am :)
