Happy May Day!!

I remember participating in May Pole celebrations in grade school. Crepe paper was used and it was always so colorful. It wasn't in a field of daisies like this picture but it is engraved in my memory as a very exciting experience. The weaving in and out of our streams made such a beautiful braid down the pole.

I received an email this morning letting me know I won an embroidery prize at Lovestitches.
I am so excited to win her darling embroidery, it really is a great way to start my day. Thanks Steph for sharing your talent so generously.

I have been stitching and sewing away on my PIF and Prim Porch Swap, they are fun projects and it is exciting seeing them come together. Both will come to fruition and be mailed before the end of this new month. So no pictures of anything to share. Sorry, but later I will.

Thank you for all your helpful comments on my last post. I have shared and discussed them with Joe, they really have been so helpful, giving us experiences and solutions to discuss.
My medications have been helpful for my migraines, and my night swets have eased off with the headaches. I have been reading on rebound headaches, which can be caused by taking to much medication, to frequently. What?...... so I have put up with the little headaches and stopped taking the excedrin migraine that had been helpful. And they have seemed to go away too, for now anyway. It's all a learning process and things work differently for all of us.

Take care and enjoy the warmer spring weather we are having. We have so many birds right now, I love listening to all there singing and chattering, soon there will be all the babies.

Spring blessings,

Carrie

IT'S HERE.....

Oh Yes....Lovely Spring Weather......has blessed Central Oregon. I celebrated by working in my garden, flower beds, took a two hour walk along the Deschutes River with a girlfriend. Finished the day with a BBQ dinner. It was so wonderful.

So wonderful until my sore muscles tried to get out of bed this morning. Ouch! I am going to be doing some stretching and lighter celebration in the yard work today.

It does feel like a celebration though, I hope Spring is blessing you with some warm weather too.

After dinner, I printed up your comments and put them in a basket for my DH to draw.

The winner of the little spring 30's fabric pack is Quilt Hollow! So please email me your mailing address and I can get these in the mail to you.

Thank you for all your comments, it has been fun.

Today is going to be a nice day so I am going to spend some more time outside. Yeah!!

Spring blessings,

Carrie
