HEXAGONIA--FINISHED, et al

 

This Hexie project just
fits my cocktail table
in our living room...
;))))

This depression era 
cake plate was my Grand-mere's
I love how it looks on top of
my Hexagon topper...

************************
Today I had PT again...
with much better results...
in that my PT guy 
now gets what is going
on with my severe sciatic
problem...

I had a flare up after the previous
PT course of exercises--
not fun!!

I know it is a long process and
am hoping that this 
revised course of exercises
and massage and stim
will help...
*******************
I have been doing bits and pieces of 
sewing on my 
Falling Leaves project:

Amazing what some 15 minute
sewing sessions can achieve...
I am still cutting solid strips with
Go!Baby cutter in darker colors...

*****************************
Meanwhile,
 we are hunkering down
for the hurricane that will 
be bearing down on us on Sunday.

We are in a hurricane warning area...
😱πŸ˜₯
  
The latest is that the eye of the storm
will pass right over us here on
the CT coast...

πŸ‘€πŸ˜΅πŸ‘€

We have extra gas for our generator
and extra water and food....
and are hoping for the best...

We are in an area full of towering older
trees...so if the winds are bad
we worry that the trees will
come down....

************************
If I am off line for a while,
we will most likely have lost
power....

hugs, Julierose

  1. We've been having these ferocious storms in southern Michigan- really unusually strong. Last week we joined over 800,000 of our fellow Michiganders with no power for 3 days (some were out for 5). Everyone lost trees, including us. Not fun and unexpected.

  2. Good luck with the storm. It is aiming at me too. I have prepped like you but haven t dismantled my outdoors yet. Perhaps it will pass us by? It says hurricane here but only 35 mph winds?

    Your hexagon runner in your soft colors is lovely, as is the pale pink plate from your G-mere.

    I admire your perseverance w the PT.

    love lizzy

    btw if I am offline also, you will know services are out due to Horrible Henri.

  3. I love your hexie finish! Here's hoping that the new PT routine will be the ticket for you to be pain-free again. I know all about severe sciatic pain, mine still flares up occasionally but thankfully not as bad as the original episode. Hoping you can stay safe and not have any tree damage during the storm.

  4. Your hexie project is so pretty and looks great on your table.
    On a more serious note - stay safe and prayers are with you that the storm dwindles and passes you by.

  5. I was just watching the weather forecast and heard your area mentioned. Hopefully the wind won't take down any trees and you might get enough rain to satisfy your bushes and trees over the winter.

  7. Your topper came out beautiful and I love the falling leaves project. Lets hope the storm is not bad and all those trees stay standing. Be safe my friend.

  8. Love the hexie table topper and how cool to use the depression glass. Ssshhh don't tell, I use my great grandmother's china (compote) in the bathroom and I am seriously considering making bird feeders out of the teacups and saucers. You have gas,and food, but do you have water, not only drinking, but flushing, washing? Keep safe.

  9. I love your depression glass plate and how special that it was your Grandma's. My Mom collected pink depression glass and I always used it for birthdays - so sweet. I hope you do NOT lose power and that all your trees make it through the storm!

  10. Love your finish! I hope Henri wasn't too awful for you. It went further west than expected so we were fine here.

  14. Between the hexies and the pink depression glass, you've created a lovely old-fashioned setting.
    I'm glad you found a better PT. It's funny (not really) how some simple exercises can be too much and set every muscle screaming.
    Hopefully you weren't flooded by Henri. We've found the best thing to do is stock up and stay home.

  15. Pretty! what a beautiful pink glass cake plate.
    we got very lucky with the storm - at least you have a generator. We have to work on that.

  16. Lovely hexies and what a treasure to have that cake plate. Your leaves quilt is really taking shape. I'm sincerely hoping you suffered no damage from that awful hurricane. It looked so bad on the news.
