Sewbiz -- it sounds like some pain relief is on its way to you! The doctors don't want to add a disk to replace it? Cadaver bone is doing wonders for folks with neck injuries.

Terri -- glad to hear you have your shelves up. I'm about to get some cubby hole shelving from Big Lots so the grandkids can stash their toys easier. I suspect I will be lining my hall with them,too, because my sewing room is about to become a bedroom again. My boxes of fabric are piled high right now, lol.

Summer citrus is looking great! I love the orange sashing around the blocks. The way you're making an hourglass in the middle of the blue sashing is really precious!

Joane -- I'm looking forward to the pictures of your finished quilts, even the nonboom quilts.

Terri, love those cushion covers! Well done, Lady!
Kass that sashing is making your blocks sparkle.
Sewbiz, pain relief sounds like a winner to me. Disc replacement might be something to really think about.
Won't be long before I have Joely's quilt finished. I've got 4 rows quilted and joined.

I haven't seen my spine doctor yet, I opted for aquatic therapy to begin with then to hear what they have to say about shots and surgery

terriamn

Marietta what is the aquatic therapy and do you feel it is helping?

Kass I love your citrus quilt. The sashing is amazing. I hope your health will start to improve.

Terri you are one talented lady. The cushions are lovely.

I love the cushions Terri. The fabric is gorgeous and the zippers are impressive
Marietta if the therapy is in the pool it can be very effective. I wish you luck with that. Good for you, putting the work in therapy before you go to the surgery option.

I thought i would would be joining you ladies in the PT department. A few weeks ago while hiking in NM I stepped on some skree and took a tumble backwards, hit my head on a rock and tumbled feet over head down the hill and stopped just before a tree. I did what I tell my students to do , stopped, assessed, and made sure I wasn't really hurt until my husband let me know I was sitting in the midst of a red ant swarm. We found my glasses and hiked out. We were three hours by windy road from medical facilities or phone and I didn't think I had a concussion so we stayed put and DH kept a close eye on me. I was back to kayaking the next day but even now, I'm still a little sore from the fall. We did make good use of the hot springs. Thankful that I didn't break anything. I think all the exercise I normally do helped. I continued kayaking and hiking but not when I was tired. I attribute the fall to hiking while tired. I had done challenging (for me)yoga and a long kayak that day before the hike. Too much! Oh to have my 26 year old body instead of this 57 year old body. I guess I shouldn't complain though. I got out of that with not much damage.
