I did get lots of reading done this week. Well, not textbooks. I accidentally bought a kindle book when I was investigating a series of 16 novels that I had read 40 years ago written by Canadian author Mazo de la Roche between 1927 and 1960. The Whiteoaks of Jalna is a fictitious story spanning 100 years and 4 generations of a family that came to Canada in 1850 and build a magnificent brick mansion on 1000 acres of land near Lake Ontario in the Oakville area. As a result, I got no stitching done but I did get a root canal yesterday. Yes. I invested yet another $700 to keep one more tooth. And I have to go back to my own dentist to get the filling put in so more $$$. Also, I have had that sinus/throat/cough thing. Not fun when you are in the dentist chair for 2 1/2 hours and your face is frozen. I learned that if you take extra strength Tylenol and Advil at the same time, you get a more effective painkiller. Just saying.
The RSC colour for June is Aqua/teal/turquoise
and I got a few done and started.
I bought a new mini iron.
I plan to do this star by EPP.
Wish me luck getting those 8 center points together. .
Blessings,
Ouch! I had a root canal in January... and the pain did not stop for a couple of weeks after! Glad you had some reading to try and take your mind off the mouth. Yes - a mix of both really does make a great pain killer - I do that with the kids when fevers are high to knock it down. Good luck with the points... I know you can make it work!
ReplyDeleteI called in as soon as it started to hurt and got in right away. They put me on antibiotics and I only took the double whammy pain killers once. It feels great now. Except my pocket book.
DeleteThe blocks are very nice. You'll get the star points just fine doing EPP. Are you still watching the grandsons?
ReplyDeleteYes 4 days a week and 5 next week then they have a week off and then 4 more. I want to try the EPP becuase Di Ford has a whole bunch of star blocks with tiny triangles and diamonds in both Morrell and AWS.
DeleteSorry about your health, hope it will be better soon. Pretty block by the way ;)
ReplyDeleteDental work? Ugh!! Console yourself by pulling out more TEAL/TURQUOISE/AQUA for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (once you are feeling up to sewing again.)
ReplyDeleteThankfully I've never experienced a root canal. And wishing you luck on the EPP.
ReplyDeleteTu-Na Helper just went through a bout of sinus infection and then "must be allergies" which really turned out to be an abscessed tooth. Once he had the root canal and placed on antibiotics that sinus stuff stopped. Hard to be productive and enjoy your stitching when not feeling well. Hope it's better soon.
ReplyDeleteThey put me on antibiotics right away and everything feels fine now.
DeleteOh no! Sorry to hear about dental stuff. Too bad! Enjoy your sewing time
ReplyDeleteI learned the Tylenol/Advil combo postpartum from my midwife! Can't beat it for pain relief. Hope your dental and pocketbook pain end soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pain to have to deal with all that in a dentist chair! I hope your tooth is feeling better. Have fun with your EPP project!
