Still in the hospital

That was the view from my room last week- New England has been bombarded with snow, and I get to watch it from my warm hospital room. I'm doing better, and should go home soon. I've been here since January 2nd. So almost a month.

 

I'm still working on that baby blanket- it should be done by Wednesday at the latest! I'm going to make some booties, too, I think.


I got my light tent in! Still waiting on the lamps. But I opened my light tent in my hospital room and it was huuuuge- 36 inchs by 36 inches. I could have crawled inside, haha. Instead, I took pictures of tulips that my Aunt Deb and Uncle John bought me. Also, some shots from me just fooling around with the macro mode on my camera when the tulips were blooming. (The dry hospital air has since killed them. I feel that way too, tulips.)

 

 

 

I signed up for online sewing classes! There's this website, Pattern Review that sewers use to review patterns and show their projects. Well, they also offer online classes done through PDFs and live chats and the message boards. This is PERFECT for me. I took a sewing "class", but learned nothing a few years ago. The teacher basically read the pattern directions, and would tell me what to do. Not the hows and whys. So yeah, I finished the projects, but I didn't really know how. So I can save these PDFs, with all the info, and go over it till I GET IT and my sewing machine isn't just a doorstop. I think most female cystics should learn to sew just so we can make our own clothes to cover the belly bloat, haha. That's why I'm learning. I could use some dresses that fit my skinny little arms, but still fit my big ol' belly.
