Stash Report May 30, 2010

First stash report of the year and it is almost June. Yikes!
Well I haven't posted a stash report in quite awhile because nothing in and nothing out but this week is differant! First of all I went quilt shop hopping on Wednesday with 3 of my good friends. I bought some black fabrics to add to my drunkard's path quilt right away so I will count that both in and out. I bought 6 yds for some new projects..... I couldn't resist these fabrics they were so cute! I also bought 3 more yds of reds and greens for my strip Christmas quilt so that is also to be counted in both in and out today.



Judy L is having a QOV challenge this week and since I have been wanting to make a QOV all year and hadn't gotten around to it I decided to jump in too. I didn't start right away but that is ok because I waited until day 5 and added all the strips up and used my new GO cutter and have been having a ball for the last day or so. Cutting and sewing, I spent all day yesterday working on this project. This is as far as I got at 10:30 this morning. It will have to wait until tonight to sew more on it because I have some other things needing my attention.

Fabric IN this week: 12 yds

Fabric used this week: 19 yds

Total IN this year: 12 yds

Total out this year: 19 yds

I can do this!

I have been newly diagnosed with RRMS which is Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis. I have seen my doctor and am starting daily injections of Copaxone.

I'm not gonna lie, I was a little nervous but hid it because I didn't want Mark and Jess to be nervous. The nurse was great! She took lots of time with us explaining everything and then we all practiced on the little ball she brought...I was expecting an orange....harumph!

I injected myself and really didn't feel the needle at all. They are very small and the injection pen makes it super simple. Yep, I can do this.....hopefully it will help keep the MS from flaring up. This medicine works well for most so I have good reason to believe it will help me too.

On to other things (I don't know why I was worried about this)
