This morning has been rough. Got a headache WHILE I was sleeping last night so I tossed and turned all night. Then when I was getting out of bed I got a major Charlie Horse in my left calf muscle. Now that muscle feels like it has been torn.... and I still have the dang headache.

thats awful!
i hope you start feeling better soon.

i have been having headaches too for some reason.
the dr said that sometimes you get them when you are pregnant, but it would be nice to know why i think.

I was told that if I get headaches I must phone the doctor immediately, but that's because of my blood pressure. I have to go to the hospital again tomorrow morning too about my BP

 

[agnes_day]

thats not good!
hopefully everything will ok.

i am getting ready to wash all the fabric i bought and get to work!
i am trying to find some good embroidery patterns for the christening gown i am making, but not having a lot of luck.

what sort of patterns? might be worth you looking into free source patterns in general and using them instead of those specifically for the gowns

 

[agnes_day]

well, i found some pretty decent ones..i am looking for ecclesiastical types of embroidery. i bought some really nice white fabric and i am going to do pin tucks around the bottom edge and do the embroidery in the middle, if that makes sense.
we got a camera with our tax return finally, on another note..now i can take pictures again!
as long as the oldest doesnt run over it with the lawnmower again.

years ago I had a book of iron-on celtic embroidery patterns, a lot of which were taken from illuminated manuscripts of scriptures, there are probably a few of that kind of thing about. when you're done I want to see photos please

 

[agnes_day]

definitely!
i used to love taking pictures of my sewing projects and i cant wait to take it up again.
so is anyone else having ankle swelling issues?? mine look horrible after im on my feet for a while!

 

[Robin'sBrood]

Yes, my ankles are turning into cankles now too! In fact, I was on my rear end in the recliner with my legs up for most of the day due to my headache and swollen ankles. Hoping I just overdid it shopping yesterday and it isn't my blood pressure rising!


Cankles... NOT attractive!

 

[agnes_day]

what i like are the ridges that form if you happen to lean your ankles against anything for more than a minute..so attractive!
