Well here it is Tuesday and tomorrow I'm scheduled for a "shake and bake" procedure. This is what I call lithotripsy. It's when they send shock waves thru your body to break up kidney stones which I happen to have one the size of a nickel. My Mother, each of my 3 brothers and myself have been plagued all our lives with these delightful little stones. The last one placed me in intensive care because it became infected and it entered my blood stream to make me septic. That was not a comforting time but they really do take care of you there. I was worried that this one would do the same but so far I'm okay. Wish me luck.
I do have a finish to share with you. It's from Angel Stitches and it's called "ABC Bird". I stitched it on a hand dyed 30ct linen but I don't have the name of it. I used DMC for the stitching and he worked up pretty quick. I finished it into a stand up.
Thanks for stopping by and letting me get off my chest the worries I have about tomorrows procedure. I hope the remaining part of your week is filled with loved ones and activities you love doing.
Blessings, Barbara

Oh Barbara, thinking of you...
I will say a prayer for you about tomorrow. My DD had one of those nasty stones when she was in high school. Very painful! I love your blue bird and the wonderful finish!
