Feeling much improved.

 All of your good wishes were heard and I have to say that today I am feeling much improved. Thank you for those get well wishes. Whatever bug it was that got hold of me has loosened it's grip and I finally felt able to play a little.  At the start of the illness I was able to complete my Bumblebee cross stitch and blogged about it, then things took a down turn and I could barely think let alone concentrate on sewing. Looking back at my efforts to share the Crispy Chilli Beef recipe.... I could have done a better job, but I'll leave it alone.

So today I'm feeling better. I pulled out my Chookshed Challenge. And made progress.

This month if you remember it is my Down in the Garden project. A Leanne Beasley BOM I've had sitting around for a good few years. I took it with me to Scrub Stitchin' retreat and made some good progress. I made more after returning home, then it lay not forgotten but unattended for a few weeks. Today I pulled it out and took up needle and thread.

I've stitched one of two flowers and two pots of herbs.

I'm all lined up preparing to stitch a row of flowers next.

I'll pick away at it a little more this evening, and maybe after work over the next few days. I'm not sure how that will go though. I'm not the only staff member to be ill. It would seem that half of my colleagues are also poorly and in various stages of the illness. I may find myself roped in to working extra shifts. 

Thank you again for your get well wishes.
