With the rain last night has come a respite from the heat of the past few days. As much as I love fun in the sun, it IS nice to have it at a MODERATE temperature. A welcome change for an overheated pregnant woman. Last night was harsh… it took me about 2 HOURS to do TWO pages… to cut paper, set up and use stickers… oh and don’t forget the extensive journalling box. It was hard to write a neat box with a steady hand when feeling the heat.

But at the same time I was privileged to have a wonderful and LENGTHY conversation with a good friend (thank you Sharon for the chat!). Sometimes you just need to sit and chat and since I had ZERO energy to wander around the house cleaning her timing in logging in was impeccable.
I have heard back from my recipient so now I can finally post the finished Canadian themed piece… there are two potential versions of this (one mimicking the Canadian flag more), but for the prototype I decided to stitch the full out red version! I doubt anyone could dispute this crying out “Canadian.”
Rather Canadian!
Ok so not so happy after 3pm when my dr’s office called me to tell me I am to go to a diabetic clinic… apparently the results of my test were NOT good… BUT 3 1/2 weeks from now??? The nurse knew nothing, the doctor is not in until Wednesday so I can’t leave a message… of course they called 15 min AFTER the diabetic clinic’s open hours… so I couldn’t find out ANYTHING about this class, all I know is they have no child care. This had me calling Health Links where the poor nurse couldn’t help me with much but send me along to their nutritionist who was busy with office hours ending imminently so no luck there but to leave a message. So I called my personal doctor who was busy as was her nurse. So I left a message there. The hope is SOMEONE will help me… at least tell me what to eat, to worry, not to worry… not that I WON’T worry. I am not scheduled to see my doctor until NEXT Wednesday and have an ultra sound the day before that. It all seems like too much wait for the good of myself and the baby. So that threw our family walk out the window – instead we headed off to the store to get chicken, eggs and nuts… fun! And that puts me to the point where I don’t feel like blogging any-more… pout pout… So tomorrow will be better I promise!
