The recession has caused many people to loose their home, their jobs, and many of our favorite quilt shops have closed. Today April 25, 2009 I am going to the closing of yet another of the closing quilt shops. Quilters Connection in El Cajon Ca. is joining the list of shops closing. The owner Darlene has been a great and wonderful inspiration to me in many of my past projects.
I am sorry to see her go. I'll miss going to visit her, she will still be there in the San Diego area, however one cannot just go drop by her home and say I'm here to visit you. Show me what you have been doing lately, inspire me.
As you may remember I had hand surgery on April 10, 2009 and had had a painful recovery.
Today is 15 days later, and my fingers still hurt. Wednesday I start going to hand therapy
which the doctor said will help, so lets see. 15(Fifteen) days with no sewing.... no cutting, no quilting. I need to go to a quilt withdrawal clinic. Today I was suppost to take a quilt class with Peggy matin.
I would have to be able to use both hands and that I can not do. Peggy Martin is really a great quilt teacher and it is fun to be in her classes, what could be better?
Wel is it almost 8:30 here in San Diego, Ca. So I better get dressed.
Have a wonderful memory making Saturday.

2 days after Left Hand surgery April 12, 2009
Friday April the 10th 2009 I hand my left hand operated on to release a trigger finger. My left ring finger actually. The surgery itself only takes 20 minutes, but you have to get to the hospital
3 hours ahead of time to wait.
Before I left on Thursday My friends and I cooked all day so I would have things all ready to eat.
no one told me how hard other things would be with only one hand. I'll let you figure that one out.
Today is Easter, But with the hand having to be raised upward at all moments, I stayed home.
I did manage to sit and play with the almost finished quilts and sort them out, however. That was fun, I also watched 3 movies, read a bunch of quilt magazines and sat outside for about an hour and just had a nice day.
Today San Diego is nice and clear, but a little on the cold side. I better watch out pretty soon I'll be complaining it is too hot.
Well no pictures from this computer. Have a great day with your family or where ever you may be.
