Hey Pat:
I'm doing well. Just sewed my first block last night since my surgery. It took a while, but I got it done. I really tried not to overdue it, but I was also up at 3 this morning taking pain meds. Still following doctors orders and doing my exercises. All is going well, just toooooo slooooow for me. I'm ready to be better. Thanks for asking.
Hey Doug, better behave, remember sister's watching now!
LOL! I know, wink, wink. I'm on my best behavior now.

A big welcome to Tonsau7. Just sit down at the machine!!! Once you start - it is easy to become addicted! Go for it! But watch out - time does fly!

By the way, QuilterGuy27 - I love your Avatar! The dog is sooo cute! Can you tell I'm a dog lover?

Just a nudge and some gentle persuasion. Come on Tonsau7, YOU CAN DO IT!!! Just 10 minutes at a time is all it takes to get you going again. Remember, YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Welcome Tonsau7, if you can stay away from this board, you just might get something started and finished. Lots and lots of friendly posts, and pictures to inspire us all
