Valid Excuse

I have a very good excuse for not having done one lick of sewing since November 9, 2010.  Ok actually my excuse only covers December 2 to present day but whatever.  Radial nerve damage in my left wrist has made sewing and most other crafts painful in more ways than one.  I'm trying to be a good patient and only take my splint off when showering but I am getting more and more restless by the day.  Although I have found that it is an excellent excuse to get out of cooking, dishes, and most other domestic chores that really do require two hands. 

Yes, it is December 15, yes my birthday is in two days and no I have not made a birthday dress this year because of said injury.  Boo to you radial nerve, boo to you.

Day 30-a picture

Thank you for your patience as it has obviously taken me a lot longer to finish this 30 day challenge than intended.  Truth be told, most of the regular posts were scheduled before we went on vacation and I have been slacking since we returned.  At any rate we have finally arrived at Day 30 and I felt it fitting to end with a tribute to my alma mater: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  I love my Heels but apparently I have nothing on the person that owns this car.  Whoever you are, can I please get a ride around the block in this beauty?  Pretty please?

Day 28-Something that stresses you out

Work. 

I recently took one of those personality tests where you are either a square, rectangle, triangle, circle, or squiggle.  Turns out I'm a circle with squiggle and triangle tendencies.  My work personality said I have a problem saying 'No' which is probably why it causes stress it my life.  Since then I have made a few changes and I have gotten better but it is clearly taking people by surprise.  But you know what, I don't come to work to babysit and considering what you are asking me to do is actually your responsibility, I don't feel bad about it.  Wow I think my stres level just dropped 1/2 a notch, lol.

Of course there are other things that cause stress but it's the holidays so I putting them on the back burner for now.

Day 27-Pets

We don't currently have any pets and aren't home enough to even considering getting one.  I did have a cat once and her name was Gracie.
