You are such a trooper! We are all very fortunate to have such "friends"! (I hope we can call all of you friends? I don't write very often because I am shy and often busy with other things; but I read every word that is written and I feel like I know all of you who post quite often!) I am wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy behind because of this sinus infection and bronchial asthma but let me see what I can do myself in the next couple of days. Everything is cut out. It just needs to be put together and signed. Thanks so much for the offer, though!

Help? I thought I had to get the blocks in by June 26th. I am signing my last 50 or so today. I have 166 blocks or so completed. I am not going to be able to make more this week but if I have more time.......... ?

Yep the date has been extended, so I'll bet with another week, you could make some more if you want...isn't it hard signing all of them? Talk about writers cramp! :lol: But, it will be soooo worth it. Good luck, (course if not everyone gets them in, 166 might be enough).

I made a few mistakes so I am down to 163.... 13 more to sign. I'll see about making more.... I am out of white fabric but I'll send these and see how it goes during the week.

Your in my thoughts!! I had a kidney transplant almost two years ago - I am so grateful for the medical technology that exists today! Get some rest, sounds like the pressure is off with the new deadline :-)

Well, Wednesday it was my turn to go to the Dr. and it turns out that I have a sinus unfection, which has stirred up my bronchial asthma and COPD and really left me wiped out! I can't seem to finish my blocks and they haven't been mailed yet. But this would give me a couple of days to recuperate and get to feeling better `~ then I can get some good blocks turned in!

Here's to your good health. Sorry to hear that you and your husband have been ill.

:oops:

Thank you! You all are wonderful! I finally am trying to sew again this afternoon, but I'm still a bit of a 'dizzy' dame!

Take your time and take care of #1 - you. With the deadline extended a month you'll have time. Just get better first.

Philarena 06-20-2010 03:46 PM

Thanks! I just can't get back into it yet for any period of time. I have to keep stopping to rest. Maybe after a good night's sleep, I'll feel better in the morning. This will be my fifth full day of antibiotics.
