Tightness

 In my chest from .... anger, anxiety?  And now in my stitching.

After accompanying Carole to a ridiculous and frustrating dental appointment, I'm ready to burst.  Between the cats, her house, the work, my brother, and yesterday's inexcusable treatment, I need calm.  I have one ativan left from a few years back during her health crisis.  My friend gets an rx for 3 a day and has for years.  Teacher friends complain that one third of the class have rx for pot.  What?  I plan to use that final .5 pill this afternoon, it won't change anything other than to give my chest grip a break.  When I find a new doc, will I have to beg for ten pills a year again?  Of course.

This is the start on 46 count and the 3857 dmc single strand is quite tight in a solid block, like me.  I hope the width margin will be sufficient for a seam, so far it appears good.  

I use the sewing method and do a full cross on every tenth stitch to aid in counting those long sections.  Not thinking clearly, I forgot at first and went back to add.  This is not anchored, more like a basting stitch and I'll pull out before completing the row.

I think I'll stop bugging blogger for a week or so.  Whether this or another (lower count) project, I hope to have more to show then.

Take care folks!
