We are in the process of some remodeling, due to a tree falling on the roof of an addition to our house. So, the electrician was here on Monday to add outlets and switches to a room that will become my new sewing room. Yah, going from a portion of a 10x12 room I shared with the computer, to having a 12x20, just for sewing. Anyway, we had decided to sheet rock the-new to me, sewing room, but the electrician needed to check the wiring in the office,used to be sewing room, and said that it would be a lot easier, if we tore off the not so nice paneling, so he could get to the wiring easier, so that was my morning's job. I have a blister on a finger from pulling nails out. But, the wiring is all done, and safe now. The reason we took his suggestion, was because when he was doing the rewiring in the bigger room, he pointed out so many fire hazards that were part of the old wiring, that we just knew that for safety's sake, we had to bring the wiring up to code in the smaller room, and so glad we did. I will sleep better at night now.
Sorry to have rattled on for so long, but that was my day. Oh, I also snuck[is there such a word?] in a few minutes to get some more blades sewn for a Dresden fan quilt. Just can't go one day without my quilting fix. LOL

What a great day for you. I don't have any medical issues, but think about my UFO's and wonder that all the time. Again, so glad to hear your good news.

woohoo! A reason to celebrate with a new quilt top!! I know the feeling of that once a year exam, and the words "See you next year." It's a true blessing.
