Now i'm lying here in bed, laptop by my side, my three cats are all curled up in bed with me, the dog is on the floor beside the bed, MIL is probably asleep in the loungeroom and Ray has gone to work.

If only i could get motivated to do something!!!! NAH!!! might just unzip and sort some files. Always plenty of those to do. LOL!
So, does anyone need any help???
hugs n roses, Meg

It's 2pm Monday and i'm still in bed, this chemo sure does sap the energy right out of you. I keep hoping i'll wake up feeling great but it hasn't happened yet.

I'm in that part of the cycle when all i can eat now is grapes and soy milk, just can't face anything else, so I guess it's good i'm sleeping so much since the thought of food nauseates me. Hopefully tomorrow I'll regain some energy as I feel like a big white whale lying here. LOL!!!

I didn't realise i had so many designs as I had reformatted them to Elna format and filed them as I collected them. Now I need them in PES and VIP so i'm re-filing all the original downloads back into folders again.

I know I could just open the EMD. format and convert it but every time I look at the Elna files I get upset over my machine. So it's easier to just move all the downloaded designs back into folders.
Very time consuming but it's a job i must do to make it easier to find designs for the Brother and he Diamond. I do plan to do some sewing as soon as my foot allows me easier access to my machines. If i sit out there too long my leg swells up fit to burst, so I guess I just have to be patient!!!

OK back to my files, hugs n roses to you all, Meganne

Well that's what I'm telling myself. LOL!!!

Sounds like you are doing what you can and what you should be doing - for you - at this time - never had a diet of grapes and soy milk. Yuck! Hehehe!

Dear Meg, you NEED to rest. Sounds nice and cozy there. Don't feel guilty! And that's an order, ma'am. LOL It is always so good to see you in such good humor. Don't know how you do it, but it is wonderful. Take care. Hugs and roses to you. Love, Lois

Meg - you deserve that kind of day. Just do what you feel like doing, and if others don't like it, then they can pitch in and do it for you. Right? Hugs.

Just say you were resting up for next Sunday. You may want to sleep all the following Monday too :) Anyway, rest is what helps us heal so rest away.

Rest is good for you. The treatment you are going through takes time as you know if the body says sleep, sleep. Sounds a good way of spending a lazy day

Hello Meganne, I think most people are just lazy, and enjoy Sunday. After all it is day of rest. How are you keeping, I have been of the internet for more than a week, and it feels like a year. Am trying to catch up with all the cute news,etc. Hope you are feeling better now, and I always enjoy sorting my files. Enjoy !!! I cam use some help here at my house, but you are too far from here. My sister has been visiting us from Wales, and we were lucky to have one of our lovely "summer days in winter", with the result we had some friends over for a "braai", I think you call it a barbeque? Every body is resting now, and I am trying to catch up on my computer. Hope you get somebody who needs help. It does help to get the time to go faster, when you are busy. God bless, Hugs. Marietta

Hi Meg,

You've been on my mind all day long. Sounds like you had a restful day. Isn't it nice to have those lazy Sundays now and again?

I've been sewing Tubby's baby alphabet quilt today - only up to G. Will do some more this week.

Love Chris

thank you Claude, it is nice to rest and just be with friends. I hope your sister will soon be well again. Chemo is often very hard on the heart and chest, it feels very tight like having pneumonia, not very nice and quite frightening. The nausea is so horrible, i have not eaten anything all day today as i feel too sick. Tomorrow will be better! Hugs n roses to you and your sister, love, Meganne
