After a long winter of stops and starts because DH was ill from Christmas until sometime in February and then I needed to have a bunch of medical tests done, I thought I would be able to get a start on my jacket. Then the rains came and came and came. Now we are in the process of getting the entire downstairs cleaned up again. It has been flooded out at least 3 times in the last 2 weeks. DH is down vacuuming up the water that has not gone down on it's own. When it's dry I'll air out the sewing room for a couple of days and start the pattern alterations I need. On the positive side, I had DH measure my back length again and find that it's an inch less than I had been measured for before, That's good news for me. I don't have to do a real extreme rounded back alteration. I'm trying very hard to be patient about this process but every once in awhile I get a bit irritated. I'm thankful though that DH is feeling well and every test I've had has been negative for major problems.Watch for sunshine is my motto. My other one is be thankful I don't live in Japan. The people there have real problems, it puts my irritations in perspective. Juno
