Life has been going in all directions lately.

Sunday I had a lovely lunch with my friend Melissa. Curried chicken salad - yum. Then we picked new paint colors for her living room and bedroom. She and her hubby are willing to be bold, which is neat. She gave me a couple of new books which I am quite excited about - especially the one about the rise of universities.

Then I came home and barbecued meat for the Raven Company practice. Mmm... meat. Sophie the Neighbor Cat thorougly approved of barbecuing. As a bonus, there was enough left over food for sewing night Monday.

Monday night at sewing, I delivered seven of the nine napkins I was given last week to [personal profile] ppfuffor the PPF. In return, she gave me more blanks to hem. My wrist was bothering me Sunday night, but that may just be because I hand-hemmed seven napkins in two days. Or, because they don't believe in ergonomics at work. Or, becuase I have an old Aikido injury there and it's flaring up.

Also at sewing night, I also coached Martin in fixing his surcote, cut out the pieces for a new persian coat, and helped Marguerite pattern her new burgundian for the PPF. It was a good night. Oh, [personal profile] evil_macaroni, those cupcakes are crack.

Today has been defined by a very persistent headache, which is probably brought on by whatever has been causing twinges in my neck this past week and too much tiredness. (What's with the neck pain? and the other aches and pains? Where did that come from?) The dentist tried to put in my new onlay, but didn't like the fit again. She yelled at the lab about it, while simultaneously giving me excellent customer service (fancy that - a medical professional who realizes that patients are customers). 

I should be working on the Tempus Nebulorum tonight, but I'm going to bed early instead. That's a day of grace for those of you who haven't gotten me your stuff (polite cough).

Super! Glad I could help everybody achieve their RDA of cupcake-induced sugar high!

Sorry you're suffering from the head & wristaches - hope the extra rest helps out.

You studied aikido? Ha! I knew you were cool.

Only as a stop-gap between judo dojos. Aikido was the only grappling art taught in the area I was living in at the time.

I also told you how fabulous you are. If your wrist continues to bother you feel free to return the blanks to be or foist them off onto some unsuspecting soul.

You did :)

Nah.

I figured out today that the weather is changing. That's probably what's screwing me up. Stupid physics.

Congrats on getting the napkins done..

Which is probably contributing to your headache and pains in the neck. I find hemming for long periods strains my neck muscles due to the looking down, and gives me a nasty headache. And would also have strained the carpul tunnel in your wrist..... Suggest taking a night or two off and icing the wrists or a good massage, and a soak in the hot tub.
