Am I the first person to write this? Where is everyone? I'm looking outside and I see a cloudy grey sky! Unusual considering this is just west of Phoenix. We actually had these little pieces of water falling from the sky last night, someone told me it was called rain......And it got down to 80F during the night! Amazing..... We've had (at last count) 31 people die from the heat in the last
11 days. Two cities here topped out at 124F (54C) more than once. Been a long hot summer. Going back to work tomorrow after an unexpectedly *extended* vacation. I had a mild heart attack. Luckily DS2 works close by and got me to the hospital faster that a wink! I'm okay, no permanent damage. Was a result of a big time stress out attack and the depletion of certain minerals in my body-maybe the result of being out in the heat too long. Real scary, hope none of you ever go through that! Had a problem with the upper heart chambers not beating properly- missing half the beats, really strange. Put me on some meds to regulate the heart rhythm which are working well. While I was home, managed to get a number of things done (no, dusting was not one of them) 2 blankets for Project Linus, a tote bag for myself, a number of afghan squares for various projects, half of a striped sock LOL -one sleeve of an aran sweater. And a knitted mouse cat toy which the cats had a great time with for 2 days then it retired into oblivion..... I also had a good time surfing some yarn sites and found some really cute patterns. Check out this sock:Older sons unit shipped out, please pray for peace....... Thats about all thats new around here. Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary to any of you that I missed. Happy stitching!
