Four!

In the last 2 days I've lost 4 lbs! I'm sure it's because I've been sick and all I've eaten is oatmeal, applesauce, soup, macaroni & cheese, and diet ice cream. It hurts my throat to eat anything hard, chewy, or especially crunchy. I know cause I was craving salt again and tried to eat a couple of pretzels.

I'm feeling a lot better and went back to work today. I may try to walk a couple of laps on the playground this afternoon with the kids. Depends on whether they wear me out before we even make it outside. I still don't have much of a voice, so thank goodness for my co-teacher. They listen to Ms. Jennifer better than they listen to me anyway. Especially the boys. She's younger and prettier.

If all goes according to plan I will have Stitched Scraps finished by the weekend. Borders are cut, I just need to press the top again and get them sewn on. I have the borders cut and ready for Spiderwebs, but am going to wait till our Sit-n-Sew at tirane's on the 17th to sew them because she's gonna teach me how to miter the corners. Can't wait to have these done.
