Nothing is Working Right

I am sorry I haven’t posted in a couple weeks.  I’ve been in a rough place lately.  My eye was bothering me again, and I seem to be having issues seeing, so I scheduled an appt with my eye specialist.  He put me back on Valtrex.  Yep.  Shingles meds.

He sees some infections but can’t identify it, so back on the shingles meds.  

And increased the steroid drops paired with a med to decrease the pressure in the eye that steroids increase.  Fun.

I am so miserable.  And stressed.

My big fancy 3 year old machine is not sewing so it is back in the shop.  I had to decide to wither trash  or fix it.  At the last minute I took it to Alex to see it if it just needs a new auto thread cutter.  

So I pulled out the machine that Diana’s mother had. It is a Memorycraft New Home, which eventually became the Janome Memorycraft.  It runs like a dream, let me tell you. Much better than the big fancy machine that I hate!

I have several rows of the Sugaridoo QAL to do before the next one comes out next week.  So I plan on immersing myself in sewing.

  1. I know you are stressed over your eyes but the stress of this time is probably what allowed the shingles to act up again. Hopefully it will back down quickly! I started to write to check on you but it gets to the point that I think I will bother you. Hope you get to sew lots and be creative.

  2. Yes, I agree that stress will only add to the problem although I know it is hard not to be stressed. Maybe sewing more will relax you. I am sorry to hear that you are having so many issues with the expensive machine, but having a backup that works is great!. Take care!

  3. Sorry your eye is acting up again. Please try to relax and not worry about it. Good thing you have a back up machine. All that fancy stuff on ALL appliances can be a pain when one decides to give grief. As in Maytag Dryer.
