It is always so much fun to catch up with all you're doing!
I too am trying not to start something new until after the 1st of the year. SYE doesn't count since I started that already.
I almost have the 2nd block done, then back to quilting a little at a time. PT says no more than 30mins before taking a break, then I have to get up and do a couple stretches/exercises before another 30mins. Since I tried sewing longer (like a couple afternoons in a row) and my shoulder flared up again, she doesn't want me sewing more than an hour a day.
I keep coming up with excuses to stop the timer (you know like "cutting isn't sewing") LOL But still trying to be good. It has been really hot this week so that has helped to keep me out of the clubhouse some...the a/c has a hard time keeping up when it is over 90 plus the heat index.
