Concussions and Shopping

First of all, thank you so much for all the emails and pm’s concerning our automobile wreck.  Let me give you a little update.

The first, and for a hot second, concern was my left knee, because it did hit the glovebox kind of hard.  But other than a few aches and pains (all completely controllable with Tylenol), I’m fine.  However, there have been some issues with the DH.

Bill was fine on Wednesday night when we finally got home, but Thursday he woke up with headaches and double vision.  I tried my best to get him to go to the doctor, but wasn’t successful until Tuesday night.  After hours in the ER (there were 46 people ahead of us, and most of them were dealing with the flu – so there’s an argument for getting the flu shot if there ever was one), and a CT scan later, the doctor told us he had a concussion.  His eyes are almost working independently of each other, so he’s seeing double a great deal.  It’s a symptom that can’t be cured by medicine – only time and eye exercises.  He is better, but I’d appreciate prayers for him.

He was better enough today that he volunteered to go with me to a quilt shop in Reynolda Village.  I came away with these two prints…

And some gray for the borders of my Country Inn quilt.

Needless to say, even though the granddarlings are back with their parents and the moving situation is no longer such an ordeal for everyone, I didn’t get a lot done this week in my studio.  Next week I swear I’m locking myself in there and not coming out for the week.
