The therapy of the hook

This weekend has been a wild ride!  But is seems like things may be finally on the upswing.   Hallelujah!

Here is the updates on all the hoopla.  First Momma's flu seems to be subsiding.  And her facial swelling is almost gone.  It appears it wasn't a reaction to the pills as I suspected.  She has an oral infection but it looks like I have that under control right now.  Tonight she is a little brighter and no sign of fever tonight. 

And Mary is doing OK too.  She underwent surgery last night.  They replaced the ball In her hip and during surgery discovered her femur was fractured also so they had to insert a rod.  I called the hospital this morning and I actually got to talk to her for a few minutes.  It was so wonderful to hear her voice but with all the pent up stress, when I hung up the phone I just sat and sobbed.  I guess I needed a release.  Her daughter called later in the day and she was up and walking the halls with a physical therapist.  Amazing!  She should be transferred to a rehab facility in a week.  

Thanks for the comments and emails on my last 2 posts.  Blog pals are so kind and supportive.  

Now it's time for a little therapy for me.  And for me, sitting with the hook and a pile of wool strips is therapeutic.

I've drawn a simple but funky sheep to pass the rest of the weekend.  This should hook up quickly and the other new pattern I ordered should be here early next week.  And my kind of therapy also includes a healthy dose of junk food.  

A bag of sour cream and onion rings should do the trick!
