I am committing to one hour of being upright and active each morning;
I had made two small cushions previously
and wanted the third cushion to the porch furniture finished, too.
(the white on the back of the couch is where the cats sharpen their nails--
Bill has to touch it up with brown paint every year!
It's time, dear!)
So yesterday, I covered the cushion with leftover pieces of batting
(covering the foam makes it so much easier to slip the cover on so it isn't fighting the foam!)
The ripped up portion in the center is Lena's contribution!
She was so happy to have me in the studio again!
She was quite the helper!
You can see my usually invisible stitches look huge
but it was exhausting work for me and so I didn't let it discourage me.
I made it right to the end of the hour mark.
I stood, squatted and sat as part of my 'therapy'!
I can't believe how deeply I breathe from the effort
but it is good for me to push for a brief part of time each day!
I ate lunch and then took a three hour nap! Can you imagine!?
I have another beautiful bloom to brighten my window sill!
And if you can see, there are several more buds on the left!
How pretty to see all of the indoor blooms when I can't garden outside yet!
It is good to water and talk to my inside flowers for now.
