Spring Green and More to Sew.

Spring Green and More to Sew.


Pardon me if I feel a bit discombobulated – it’s been that kind of a week!
Somehow it all happened – it all fit in.  I’m not sure exactly how – but I’m on the tail end of this “something crazy every day” streak!
On Sunday morning I did the “up and over” drive so that I could fill the van with gas before arriving at the inn for photo taking before some folks had to head back to real lives and jobs.
We still have a long way to go as far as leaves on the trees – but just 45 minutes from here, down the mountain everything is leafed out and it’s pollen-hell.
We learned that yesterday on our way to Winston for yet another retinal specialist appointment.

@quiltville_bonnie I’m a de-papering passenger as Hubster Dave drives me to the retina specialist I. Winston. 😊👍 SO MUCH POLLEN. Once we got down the mountain. Holy cow! 🤢 We pulled off at Yadkinville to hit up CVS for antihistamine eye drops and Sudafed. 🤪 We have descended into Pollen Hell. 🤧 #quiltville #quilt #quilting #quilttok #quiltersoftiktok ♬ Drive – Daniel Russell

I had pieced enough kite shapes to occupy SOME of my time on the 2 hour drive.  I knew I wouldn’t be able to see ANYTHING on the way back after being fully dilated, but it was a pretty day for a drive –
Until we got down the mountain and we both were overcome with the pollen.  Sudafed, Nasocort and Antihistamine eye drops were acquired before we could drive any further.
Hubster Dave’s eyes were nearly swollen shut.
