YOP Week #9 Year 12

 Here I am again!  I had a busy and tiring week...but no reason for the tiredness really.  I did get some crafting done.  I forgot to take a picture of the ties for the grands but they were just knitted black ties.  So I wrapped them up and sent them off.  I also sent one of the I Spy quilts to Grayson as I didn't think Sam would appreciate it.  Sam just started high school and Grayson is in 5th grade.  I also sent my daughter the Summer cross stitch pillow I made and a set of crocheted scrubbies. 

Having  finished those projects I got back to my Multnomah shawl........I put a progress keeper in. I think I got about 3 rows in.

I also got some granny squares done.........

I got a few books from Thrift Books.........2 quilting books.....


Sampler September will be starting September 1st where you work on a cross stitch sampler.  I've chosen this one but I still need to get the fabric and floss together.......

I'm still working on my rotation and have some Fall things lined up but it's not written in stone yet.

I hope you all had a good week.  I went to the doctor Friday and he's concerned I'm not getting enough protein so I now eat peanut butter and I need to get some chicken or turkey lunch meat and chop it up finely and put it in my potato soup.  I've lost 17 pounds on this liquid diet!  I should write a book! LOL!

That's all for now.....enjoy the coming week!

Happy Trails!!!

I can believe a liquid diet makes it pretty hard to get protein. Hope you get back to eating solids soon. At least things like eggs would help. Glad you are getting some needle time.

Hope you can get some protein shakes or something! Hang in there Sam!

Can you drink malts? That will sure help with the weight issue! :-)
With so many lovely projects going on, I don't think I would ever be finished.
Blessings,
Betsy

I hope you start feeling better soon! I like to add almond butter to my smoothies for some protein, not sure if that’s an option for you. -Jen @CarolinaTales

You've been through a lot. I'd be surprised if you didn't have tired periods, Sam. Those are some nice finds at the thrift store!

The shawl is pretty. I recently got my knitting needles and some yarn out of storage. I look forward to getting back to that craft.

Oh dear. I didn't know you had been so sick. Lost 20 pounds?? I hope you are getting your strength back day by day. I will be praying for you.
