Story of Week and Stash Enhancement  Over the past 2 week, I have been doing a lot of Crochet. It is Crochet in May after all.( if you follow KristiGlassknits you'll know what i am talking about.)
Ted had his botox injections last week, and a carpal tunnel release surgery on Tuesday. His pain the next day was almost nonexistent. Thank you God. He is walking a lot more. On Memorial day he went to his sons house and did not use wheelchair at all. We are making progress. Again, Thank you God. 
I spent my Memorial day working for 5 hrs, then just took the day, did some yarn shopping at HobbyLobby, and relaxing at home with no responsibilities. It was so needed.

Story of Week and Stash Enhancement  No new stash this time. Ted and I continue to plug along. He is having some increased pain in Right arm and hand that is slowing progress. Please continue to Pray that we will start seeing more recovery, less pain.

We had a really good Easter with all the kids and Grandkids over. They brought the food, and cleaned up after. Ted spent some time in his favorite rocker and some time outside with the kids. Both was a victory. 
My Crafting has been all over the place, but I have a HO and a FO
