I didn't follow my usual Lord's Day course of reading yesterday. I just didn't think I was going to be able to concentrate on it. So, instead, I spent the afternoon doing some handwork while listening to some nice edifying music. If you've never heard of Kemper Crabb, I'd suggest you pop over here and give him a listen!
All the ladies went to church yesterday for the first time in weeks. Daddy took Granddaddy into the hospital to get his hip replacement put back into proper joint. When Daddy put him to bed last night, he noticed that it was out again, so this morning they headed towards the hospital once more. The doctor got it put back into place and said that he thought there was a 75% chance that it was going to pop back out. Granddaddy is going to stay in the hospital for a couple of days and then he'll be sent to rehab for a while. He may have to have surgery again.
This morning I managed to cut my thumb while peeling one of those big squashes we use in breads and fried up with onions and eggs for breakfast...thankfully, I had already washed the dishes. :) I then whipped up a bread...mmmm. Something to snack on! :D
On the sewing front today, I got most of my sailor suit finished. What remains is a zipper in the skirt, as well as the waistband and of course, the hemming; and pockets, buttons, and hemming on the top. So far, I'm quite pleased with how it looks. :) I wouldn't have gotten that far today if I hadn't stitched all the ribbon on the collar and sleeves yesterday.
The livingroom is a lovely wreck. It just can't help it when people are sewing....
