WINTER CABIN --ONLY ALMOST DONE....

 

My Winter Cabin 
page is 
ALMOST,
BUT NOT QUITE---
 finished....
👹

My hands are very tired 
and so sore from
stitching-- so I will be taking
time to let them rest..

There are a few little areas
to be stitched down that
will have to wait...

I HATE 👿👿👿 
having to stop
when it's JUST 
about done...

But if I don't, I will
be out of commission
for a long time...

[Old Mr. Arthur-ritis
CAME TO VISIT!]

*********************
We have a heavy rain watch
in effect for this afternoon
and evening with a 
Southeasterly wind
and temps in the mid 60's.

We do need the rain
********************************

Tom helped me to make my chicken and rice
casserole for tonight's dinner--
he did the chopping and the
dishes..💋💗
He is a gem... 

It will be a good
meal for a rainy, 
damp evening...

I hope you are all enjoying this last 
gasp of warmer weather..

Hugs, Julierose,
La Blageuse
(resting-euse)

  2. Oh dear, your poor hands, hopefully resting them for a day or so will ease things for you.

  3. That block is looking so great. How fortunate to have some wonderful rain. Rest those hands so they can do what they like best soon.

  4. Your A frame cabin is delightful! Sorry about your poor hands, you must pace yourselllf. [I know, I nag...]

    Not much rain here but early dark and cloudy.Maybe I will warm up the house by baking some delicata squash rings to go w the casserole I made. And also must go chop apples for my odd but much loved fall salad, a trad "Waldorf", aples, walnuts, cranberries, celery. I'll add some goat cheese maybe? Yum for all fall foods.

    ps we should ask for warm paraffin wax manicure gadgets for Xmas, the warm wax is so nice on sore hands I am told.

  5. Your little cabin is looking wonderful.
    I know all about visitations of Arthur to hands. Mine are usually painful the entire winter and especially so when I have to be outside (particularly clearing snow off our car). Gotta love Arthur!!

  6. I hope you get enough rain from the storm. The warm weather has passed by us now and we will be down to 40s for highs on Mon. and Tues.
    Your page looks great and when you are ready it will only take a little time to finish it.

  8. Another delightful page Julierose, your Winter Cabin is another winner! Take it easy with the sewing. It's coming up to meal time here and just reading about your casserole is making me quite hungry, hope you enjoyed the meal.

  9. The cabin is coming along so nicely. What an odd day of weather! It was warm, wet and windy. My afternoon, the sun was shining. I hope you enjoyed your chicken and rice casserole. Sounds so good!

  10. Cabin coming along nicely. Sorry to hear about your hands. I have a main knuckle that acts up from time to time. Do you think the rainy weather has anything to do with it. I have a friend who says low cloud cover gives her headaches. Rest of course is important too. Take Care!

  11. You really are close to a finish with this page. You are very smart to listen to your body and rest when it needs it. The chicken and rice sound like good comfort food for a rainy day.

  12. Oh, that is darling! I'm sorry about the hand issues. I had to take a break the other day when machine quilting was aggravating a trigger thumb issue. I've also gotten some Dupuytren's nodules on the right palm this past year, so I kinda feel like a ticking time bomb. Hope it feels better after a break Hugs!
