Monday Thoughts

I'm still in the process of deciding if I'm going to live over the stomach virus or not. That is some nasty stuff let me tell you. Once I was past the most obvious parts of it my legs got weak and wobbly and it's taking some time to get my strength back. And my "want to." My "want to" seems to be gone right now. I don't "want to" do anything. Except when things aren't done, like the floor swept or the cabinet wiped off I have a meltdown. Crying even. Good grief...it's just a floor. Or a cabinet. Or both.

Anyway, thought I'd show you this table mat I embroidered months ago and machine quilted last week. That's just how I work....embroider and then wait weeks, months, years to finish. Wonder why that is. Cute don't you think? All three of those stars are black, I promise. That one, for some reason, looks pale in the picture. I probably gave it the stomach virus.


And yesterday I was craving toast but had no bread and no intention of going out to buy bread so I just made myself some. Just about zapped me but I did it. Wasn't it just gorgeous...it smelled like heaven and tasted better. Ever notice how when you're sick there's something you crave. It might be crazy but it's your own particular comfort food. Sometimes it's oatmeal for me, sometimes a scrambled egg, sometimes homemade bread. Sometimes it's an egg salad sandwich because my mom used to make those for me and I miss her like crazy. Do you have a comfort food?
