4:00 am….and already awake…my hip will just not allow me to sleep very long…
I wake with so much pain I can hardly get out of bed..It takes a bit to get straightened up….I feel like I am 90 years old !!!
I did go to the doctors the other day…and now have to go for xrays… he gave me more medicine to try..
today I will get the medicine and see if it will help me..I hope so……

I have been getting some things done as during the daytime it doesn’t seem to be as painful..
I just love this new wall hanging I finished up….!!
Antique lace and lots of fluff…..just so pretty…
It is now listed on my.etsy..

my new phone…….let’s see if I can figure out how to use it….So far I managed to get my email working on it..
That took about 2 hours to get it working….hah….
My sons both told me I will hate it…That I won’t be able to figure it out….
.(something tells me they just want it and are hoping I will give in)
I will conquer it! I will! I will!

Some hearts I have been working on……

I can’t sleep !

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Ugh..Its been nights since I have actually had a good sleep…3 in the morning…5 in the morning..and so on before I can finally drift off…It is making me just crazy…I lay there and toss and turn….my hip is killing me….and even when it does stop hurting for a while…still no sleep…
I get up…sit for awhile….but I can’t say I feel like working on anything at that time of the morning…So it’s not even a productive time..sigh..I feel crappy…

How long can a person go with little sleep?

Courage Devoted

Many layers of vintage fabric, antique fibers and lace make up this beautiful heart wall hanging.

It measures about 9 inches wide x about 13 inches in length.

Stained and distressed with tattered and torn edges ..this vintage heart hangs from seam binding ribbon.

I am just smitten with this wall hanging!
