I had NO pain from the actual surgery sites...and they have healed up very nicely! Very happy I had them done....
I, however, have had unrelenting pain from what the ER doc said was Sciatica...but which I really think is the nerve that runs down the thigh muscle...technically known as the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve...I am taking heavy-duty muscle relaxers...This condition was probably caused by being flat on my tummy on the operating table for the kyphoplasties...sigh...if I have any more of them, will ask them to put a pillow under my hips!!
Thank goodness I can sleep!
I am working on a sweatshirt conversion....I bought this lovely mint colored sweatshirt right before Christmas and hadn't worn it yet...came back from Retreat with a chunk of Laurel Burch fabric and lo and behold, it has that same mint green so OF COURSE, I had to design a way to use the scrap of fabric on my sweatshirt...
I wanted to convert it to a zip up...with pockets...and I just happened to have a separating zipper in blue! And..it will have a collar made of the bottom banding....
I still have some work to do on the zipper....needs the stops at the top of the neck...that is the next thing I am working on.
It will have cuffs and a bottom border (just draped for effect!)...and the pockets are made of the focus fabric lined with the cuffs banding
Oh..and see my latest sewing machine acquisition...isn't it cute? Was my door prize at Retreat....
Will leave you with some pictures of the snow in So Cal this Feb...its been an incredible year for rain, rain, rain - or as we call it - Liquid Sunshine (cuz you know 'It Never Rains in California'!!) These are our three big mountains....
