Well, I didn't make my goals for this week. I knew that I couldn't when walking suddenly became a difficult issue to face. But I didn't totally fail, either.
Here's the report for last week:
Week 1:
1-1. Finished all of the week's laundry. Hurray!
1-2. Completed about 80 percent of my crazy quilted -dimensional, life-size fruit.
1-3. A failure: I didn't quilt any of the quilts in my stack of "to-be-quilted-some-other-time quilt tops.
1-4. Another failure. I had to buy another bottle of detergent, since I didn't make more.
1-5. But I DID get all the January birthday goodies mailed.
Okay, now on to the projects for this week:
2-1. Laundry detergent reprise.
2-2. Finish the CQ fruit project.
2-3. Get caught up with my ETSY orders. They fell behind with me off my feet...
2-4. Clean off my studio counters to get ready for the next project (they are covered with piles of stuff from the last project...)
2-5. Try again to get a quilt finished, or at least quilted.

Just Ouch!
I already know that I won't finish my list for this week! Why? Because I injured my foot and can barely walk, much less trek out to the studio.
Yesterday, as I was walking down the stairs, I heard a loud "POP" followed by intense pain in my right foot. Now, I'm waiting for the final diagnosis: ruptured Plantar fascia ligament or partially torn Achilles tendon. Current treatment: ice, elevation, ibuprofen. None of this is helping very much!

Starting from Day 1
A new calendar! As I look at all those beautiful, fresh calendar pictures, filling in all the annual events like birthdays and anniversaries, I look forward to this fresh start and my hopes for the new year. 2013 is now officially here, and I imagine what will happen this year. What adventures will I have? What challenges? What exciting things will come my way? Meeting new friends? Will I reconnect with friends from the past? I will certainly enjoy time with the friends that surround me.
As a quilter, I look with anticipation to all the lovely fabrics I may use to make useful and beautiful things. As an artist, I always look towards that next work. I will gleefully gather supplies. And use them.
Visions dance in my head, like fireflies on a summer night. What wonders will I encounter?
I hope that each of you reading this blog finds 2013 to be a wonder-filled year. May you have peace, happiness, and good health.
Happy New Year!
