Monday is Wash Day

Yesterday I managed during the fatigue that I still have today to sew together the sweater pieces and crochet on the trim to both bonnet and sweater.  I guess I did accomplish something besides going to church.

Over the past week I lost the pound I gained back from using the lovage root tea.  This morning I got on the scale and found that I lost another 0.2 pounds.  Hey it is something.  Better than gaining weight.

Of course I have a load of laundry in the dryer right now.  It just wouldn't be a Monday if I wasn't doing laundry.

Still tired.  Thinking it is a fibromyalgia flare up.  I'm achey too.  My hands are swelling and hurt.  While in church I was massaging my hands to get the fluid back up out of my fingers.  Even my watch was digging in .

Today I have to find another project to do to keep myself busy.  There is always the staining of my bookcase that needs to be done.  Though with my asthma it isn't advised for me to be doing it.  I have asked J about a million times to do it but well he just doesn't get to it.  He'll sand it down but he is so afraid he'll leave the stain on too long and ruin the bookcase.  I can understand that.  I am a bit picky.  I'd like it to not end up as dark as the open shelving unit he did for all my cook books.  He never wiped the stain off when he did that project.  So dark...UGLY dark.

I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet on this one and flip the darn thing over and stain it myself.  Good thing I'm wearing sweat pants and an old t-shirt today.  I really won't care if I ruin those.
