Except for an exercise class – can’t forget about self torture – I quietly spent the day listening to an audio book and stitching. I am not sure about my original plan …
Oh, right – it had to do with getting up for an NIH sponsored conference that started at 1000 EDT (which means 0700 for me) on the subject of the Neurological and Psychiatric consequences of COVID- especially Long Haul COVID. (A side note – CDC and NIH are desperately trying to rename the syndrome/s to something more “official.” It is not working. As one of the speakers said – Long Haul came from the trucking world where heavy loads are hauled over long distances. It really suits, And why shouldn’t those dealing with the subsequent problems get to name their condition? – end digression)
Besides all the usual scientific mumbo-jumbo which all amounted to – we don’t really have a clue – there were some interesting and clear presentations. I will post links for anyone interested once the webinar recordings are placed on line.
Otherwise –
I worked on Part 6 of Owl Forest’s Alice –
which includes the flowers below the table, Alice, mouse, border, the “eat me” cake, and the top of the sock which leads into a shoe (remaining to be stitched). Some of this was actually completed yesterday.
Then I moved on to Claire Bray’s Solar System – The Sun is actually from May but I decided the 3k+ stitches would be easier to follow in Pattern Keeper and got around to loading it this morning. I have two planets on the list for tomorrow…
which amounted to about 1700 stitches. That is a lot of oranges….. and I still have 600+ to go…
Mindless cozy mysteries make for good audiobook listening. Of course, Audible is having yet another sale…
