That's all I've gotten done for 2 whole days...I did something to my back yesterday morning and I was one miserable girl...I couldn't do much of anything but sit on the couch with a pillow behind me. I did get some binding done on Hampton's birthday quilt...but oh I hate to waste all that time. Yesterday I remembered that Andy's ortho guy told him he could take 4 Advil for pain if he needed before his shoulder surgery...well then I didn't do anything about it and I was chatting with Tammy and she said the same thing...so this morning I took 4 Advil and I have to tell you, it's like a miracle. I was able to sew some today...and I could sneeze without crying. I still not moving real fast but I'm a zillion times better than yesterday. Thanks Tammy! I'm off to go sit in my jacuzzi tub and see if I can work the rest of this out.Thursday, November 13, 2008

Those blocks are gorgeous...I'm wishing I had signed up for that block of the month!
Love those colors together! Nice blocks too. Four Advil and a jacuzzi sounds great for my sciatic nerve issue. Hope you get lots of sewing time in.
Does this mean YOU are not walking??? LOL!!! Seriously though I'm sorry about your back. I hope you feel better soon. If the Advil doesn't work try a glass of VINO!! That cures all.
Those colors and blocks are so pretty. Love the blue and brown combination. Feel better soon.
Your blocks are wonderful, I love the colors, good for you keeping up and all.....
Good to hear the medicine is helping, back pain is no fun at all!!!! Your santa pin from the last post is so cute, love it..
So sorry to hear about your back and I am glad the advil kicked in!
The blocks are soooooo pretty!!
Hey looky at that super big picture!! YUM that is going to be a nice quilt. Back spasms are the worse are they not? Feel better~
Ouch Carol! I hope your back is better soon. I love the colors in your blocks -- can't wait to see them made up!
Ouchie - feel better soon!
Oh yes that's going to be a gorgeous quilt.
Hope you get to feeling right again real soon.
Your blocks are beautiful!! I hope you are feeling better each day!!!
Hope the Advil and jacuzzi tub result in lots of sewing time for you. The blocks are lovely.
Feel better soon! I am so going to enjoy watching this BOM progress on your blog! Beautiful blocks and beautiful fabric.
Oh, my! I don't want you to join the back pain club! Hope you get over it very quickly.
The blocks you made are very pretty. I can't tell if the darker color is a brown or a plum. Fill me in. It's going to be a very nice quilt when done.
Any more news on Hampton?
Love those blocks, and I am so glad that your back feels better.
Beautiful blocks and you sure got them done in a jiffy. I should try that, LOL. Hope your feeling lots better.
Hug s- karen
Your blocks are wonderful! I'll have the blog post up this weekend for the second drawing! Good luck!
So very pretty, your blocks are lovely. I so very sorry for your back, let me tell you I know from experience. Back surgery fixed me, however!
Back pain is the worst, isn't it? I've had back problems for years and years, and I know of what you speak. I'm glad you took the Advil - it will definitely help with the inflammation. Take care of yourself, Carol! I'm sending healing thoughts your way.
Your blocks are beautiful!
Those blocks are gorgeous! I am sort of wishing I would have jumped on this band wagon. I like how there are 2 of each block. I'm so glad the 4 advil gave you some relief!
The blocks are wonderful and I'm glad to hear you are feeling better.
I got my big fat packet from FQS too. I wanted to work on my blocks this weekend, but the dogs got into a big fight and I got into the middle of it, got bit and had to put my arm on ice all weekend, so no sewing!
Looks like another beautiful quilt in the making. I wish I had a jacuzzi! Hope your feeling better.
It really helps to get BOMs done where there is a prize incentive hanging over your head, huh? I'm caught up too.
Hope you're feeling better my friend. Nothing worse than back pain!
Your piecing is magical, fantastic, amazing, divine and, well, you get my point! ;)
I heard it was your birthday Carol HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
The blocks are great! I take the generic for Advil at 1000 mg. morning and night for arthritis. Works great!
Hi Carol! I've tried to respond to your e-mail, but it keeps bouncing back. Is your mailbox maybe full?
OMG, Those blocks are beautiful! I love those color schame.They are so pretty. *S*
