I also take gabapenten...a dosage of 6 a day right now. It's helping with the Fibro pain. Yes, I tried those "designer meds" and the side effects were awful.
You are doing so much better than me, tho, as I've got fabric stashed everywhere and can't figure out what I want to do first. I also sew clothing and do machine embroidery...so many decisions!! Sometimes, I just get overwhelmed and do nothing! LOL
Love your quilt...reminds me of the "good ole days"!! It will be wonderful to cuddle with!
