Hi unhappyguy,
Thanks once again for your post and inspiration.
Oy vey!! right on with the polyester dress of Anthony's...it really was not his best work. I've made myself a few blouses, and after they were made, just didn't seem to care for the fit/drape/something....well, the two I am thinking about right now are ....you guessed it. Poly!
Seeing your Oy Vey, are you Jewish? (imagin that...someone living in NYC who is Jewish LOL)

Growing up in the midwest in a city that was mostly Catholic or Lutheran, I didn't even know anything about the Jewish faith, let alone Jewish people until long after I was in my teens. My 'cents' of humor just had to take me to something about NYC and Jewish men down at the 'diamond district'....sorry if that is in poor taste... and I wish I knew how to make these photos smaller in size....
Spiritual issues can really be very troubling, I do understand your having issues in that area. I'll keep you in my prayers that you find the answer/solution to this area.
Weeding really does have a therapeutic effect. Relaxing, even with the sort back or knees or lately, it is my big toe joints from having my toes all curled up as I crawl along the ground digging with my little hand trowel! Yesterday I was out there for 3 and a half hours. I loved every minute of it. Worms and all.
We do have bikes, but hubby isn't interested in riding right now and my friend who might like to, well, I'm not sure she would ... I'll have to ask her. We are going shopping tomorrow for new shoes for me. My gym/walking/everyday shoes died in the washer last night. The only thing I am not crazy about with me riding by myself is all the hills in my immediate area. Just to get out my drive way and down my little street is a steep grade. No problems getting going, but the coming back home is a killer just walking somedays!
Well, with that thought, I'd best get off the computer, I have my gym bag to pack so it is ready on Thursday when I have a dental appt. and have the car again this week. I skipped the gym today since I was running late today and didn't even have the time to throw my stuff in the bag...but I walked 3 times today. The last time was for 2.6 miles with the dog. I even jogged a bit with that one!
Hope your flare of IBS is getting better.
