Gearing up for Christmas
There is so much to do and so little time left. There is only just over a month left before Christmas, and I usually am done my Christmas shopping by now. I have decided to make some of the gifts this year, to ease the financial strain. I wasn't taking into account how much extra time it would take. So, here I am wondering if I will get it all done in time. Here it goes...

Wrist Again
My wrist has not hurt at all for a while now. I did not give in to the craving for crafting. Now I plan on going to see the doctor again to get the okay. So, wish me luck...

Wrist or Rest?
Well, it has been 2 weeks since I have had wrist pain. I have been craving crafting again. I know that if I did any crafting right now, I will most likely injure it again. I figured that if I did a little blogging, it might curb that craving a little bit. And I could "chat" a little with my fellow crafters. So... I still am longing for something creative. Oh, well. Maybe I'll go read a book.

Crafting Injury
A few months ago, I developed tendinitis in my right wrist. Do you realize how frustrating this is for a crafter?!
It makes it hard to do any kind of crafting; knitting, crochet, scrapbooking, jewelry, even typing can be painful at times.
I finally had to put all my supplies away, so that they wouldn't be a temptation. On Monday, I got out a little bit of knitting, just to test out my wrist. It HAD been 2 months since I put the supplies away. But, after 5 minutes, I knew that I would be regretting my decision. So, it is back to nothing. I have been doing a lot of reading lately. Oh, well.
I am a little worried that this might mean the end of crafting as I know it. But the doctor keeps reassuring me that I need to give it 3-6 months. Okay.
