So I haven't written in this thing for months now. I apologize if anyone was actually reading regularly. I've had a lot going on. About eight months ago I was in a show, Pirates of Penzance, that caused me to get injured. So I've been dealing with what has been diagnosed as a herniated disc and spinal stenosis. Which sucks. Big time. I had to drop out of school which kind of threw my whole life off track. So right now I'm not sure what I'm doing. I've been stuck at home for about eight months, and I can't trust myself to drive, so I've been completely dependent on others to do anything.
The injury has even cut into my sewing time. I cut on the floor, since I don't have to luxury of a large cutting table. That's really strenuous on my back. But I have gotten a little in, which lifts my spirits a bit. And I leaned how to crochet! No classes or anything, I actually learned on youtube. It's amazing what the internet can do for you these days.
Another adventure that I started was fostering dogs. I've always been passionate about animals, and I have to rescue dogs myself, but I needed to feel like I was doing something good. So about 3 months ago I got my first foster dog and it was an amazing experience. He's been adopted already! So right now I'm waiting to get my next one.
Hopefully soon I will start feeling better and I can start doing the things I want again. But for now, I'll sew as much as I can, crochet and learn more, and learn new things! Maybe soon I can be a part of the sewing blogger community, and start feeling a sense of... well, community!
