I am auditioning vintage kimono fabrics for a third in this series. This time, I have pulled fabrics with red and black. I’m having a little trouble with this one, but hope springs eternal.
M and M have gone home to their parents. They had a great time on their getaway, and Mr C and I enjoyed our time with the kids.It is Steph’s official birthday. Forty years ago, I was in labor when they discovered that Steph was in a posterior position. Back in the day, these things were not known until it was too late to do a C section. It was a long and difficult delivery. She went code blue shortly after the delivery, but was revived. I remember holding her in the hospital and counting all her fingers and toes, and I swear, she smiled at me as if to say, “Mom, it is going to be ok.” Here is a photo of her with Mark and Lisa on the occasion of her Baptism.
I have felt exhausted all day and it has been an effort to do what I have to do. I did manage two walks with Scooter in the chilly mist of Portland. But, tonight, it is official, I have a fever and I am giving in. I am sick. It is probably a sinus infection — it is that time of year. So, I am off to bed and hope to sleep it off.
get better soon, gerrie! and for what its worth i think the third kimono is coming along fine… actuall they each seem better than the last. and thats saying something since the first was great!
Uh huh…loving this layout…get better soon.
Take good care of yourself! XO
Hope today finds you feeling more like yourself. Do rest and take life in the slow(er) lane for a few days!
That must have been a horrendous delivery and a frantic time for all shortly after Steph’s birth! YIKES! Happy Birthday Steph!
Another great kimono is about to be born!
xo
Get well soon – and let yourself off the hook for once. Your kimonos are gorgeous.
Happy Birthday to Stephanie, and I wish you a good night’s sleep. Feel free to sleep as much as necessary tomorrow too. You have my permission. 😉
Nice picture of your three children.
I hope you get better soon.
Happy Birthday to Steph! Take care and rest. I hope you feel better soon. Sinus infections are the pits! I like the kimono that you are working on. Red, black, and white are so striking together.
Plumb wore yourself out, dearie. Please take care and get on some antibiotics soon – those sinus infections are nasty. Ask me how I know.
Hooray for Steph’s 40th!
