Avoidance

In order to avoid quilting, I decided to go to the mall and take a walk. Dick was planning to spend most of the day at the Agency. I walked around the mall a little bit - not really much at all, but it was hard anyway. It was so hard that I arranged to go to Thirlby and have a hemoglobin count taken. I'm almost positive there's nothing wrong, but maybe they'll come up with something. Maybe I just have to try harder. Go Nancy, go Nancy.

I had a really nice visit with Mother - she sleeps most of the day, but when she's roused, she's focused and alert - just not for long periods. I did some "chores" for her (trim the amaryllis, enter the SS into the checkbook, etc), and we talked about Dick's volunteer work, Laurie's biopsy, Jana's cold, and how Dylan is the cutest boy that there ever was.

Consider the quilting totally avoided - avoidance is one of my strong suits. Before I begin, I have to check with someone about the invisible thread - does it go on the bobbin too, or do you put some other kind of thread on the bobbin. These are the eternal mysteries of the "sew sheen".
