Arggg.....

Not to much progress on my February BJP. I have been bitten by a sucky bug! Sinuses are working overtime, headache, body aches, cough etc..... I was in bed almost all weekend, sapped of any strength I have at all. Not conducive to beading, for sure. I hate being sick. It is not for me! Here is the little bit I got done before it hit me full-force. I know, its not much but its something right? I think everyone I know is sick right now, just getting over being sick or just starting to get sick. It started last Thursday for me, and isn't showing any signs of going away....boo-hoo! See where the left side grommet is? I forgot to put the grommets in before I started on the left side, I really got lucky because I couldn't have gotten the beads any closer to where the grommet was supposed to go, without planning it! I wonder how I did that? When I realized I needed to get the grommet in, I was sure I would have to tear some beadwork out to fit it where I needed it to go. I guess the bead gods were watching out for me and guiding my needle to the right place!

PS. Maddux update! As of today, Maddux is 2 months fever-free!!!! YAY! I am so happy and praying that he continues to improve. He is back to his old self, playing, eating, drinking, sleeping and enjoying life like he did before his kidneys started to fail. His weight is great 72 lbs and holding. He started doing his "mad-dog" circles in the livingroom again when hes super excited. I am loving it! Wish us continued luck! For those of you who don't know about it, Maddux was experiencing 2-3 fevers a month of sometimes 107+ degrees due to Shar Pei Fever syndrome/ Renal Amyloidosis. He is on an experimental protocol and continues to improve. read my older posts to follow along if you are interested!
