Just an Hour

 

Some more sunflowers....

with a kitty for company.

 The dining room table has become my art studio.

I usually paint standing up but I have no endurance for that so...

This was great fun to paint,

while an area is drying I head back into my recliner

and knit some more!

 I am working on this picture my son sent me in the Fall.

It is a view of Mt Rainier.

I am now working on the foreground...

when I watch a YouTube video, things go so quickly.

I think it has been a good lesson in patience to paint again.

 I also made another face mask in Bill's chosen fabric so he will have two.

The length of the elastic had to be longer for it to fit him well-note to self, 

men need to have larger sizes for masks to fit them well!

Church by social media this morning....I am missing everyone so much!

Different Strokes

I finished this dishcloth first thing yesterday .

It has a dark olive green center that reads almost like a brown

which is fitting for the sunflower look.

 Then in early afternoon, I made a few of this kind of face mask for myself-it fits me best!

I made two that are subtle and the color of my eyes;  always a good color for a person to wear.

 Bill requested one, too;  he wanted it loud and wild!

He got it and loves it!  He is a neon kinda guy! lol

To each his own, right?!

Two for him and two for me.

Now to make plenty to hand out, finally.

And I rounded out the night with another starflower dishcloth that I call sunflowers.

I'm using up scraps for different colored centers--so far I like the blue best!

A Good Report

I had a doctor appointment by video yesterday, first thing in the morning.
Other than a few technical difficulties, it went well.
(routine MS appt)

I took several walks today both with my walker and without--
the new physical therapy for myself is working well.

Then in the afternoon, Bill drove me in for a face-to-face

(or should I say,  mask to mask!)

doctor appointment because it is difficult to listen to lungs by video! lol

I am glad to report, my lungs are improving and so is my strength!

On the way home, Bill bought us a stone oven baked pizza--

it was  torture for the olfactory sense on the drive

but absolutely wonderful to the taste buds once home!

We watched an old movie and I finished the garterlac dishcloth

and started the pinwheel one.
It felt good to sit in the living room like an adult!

I'm hoping to make some more face masks today;

I will be making the flat, pleated ones but using elastic instead of ties.
