The decision whether or not to bear a child is central to a woman’s life, to her well-being and dignity. It is a decision she must make for herself. When the government controls that decision for her, she is being treated less than a fully adult human responsible for her own choices. Ruth Bader Ginsburg

It was very nice to return the favor to my honey on Wednesday morning (5/4)…he had to be at the golf course SUPER early for a tournament, so I hopped up and made him a breakfast sandwich that he could take ‘’on the road’’ if needed :~).

I spent time after that doing my word and number puzzles, but I fell back asleep at 8:15 in the living room…luckily the beeping of SKYPE woke me up at 9 AM, and Janice and I had our usual session :~). After that I headed to the studio and made more progress on cutting for my demo at quilting, which will be a new QoV pattern. I have to space my cutting out with sewing because otherwise my hands/shoulder begin to hurt too much, so I started sewing the men’s quilt together:

Michael and I had leftover lasagna for dinner and then watched TV while I knit for the rest of the evening. I have learned to hold my needles differently than I used to, so that I can knit for longer periods of time without my hands hurting, but discovered last night that when I knit for an hour….my replaced shoulder starts killing me! If it’s not one thing, it’s your mother….. :~)

And more pictures of Lucy:

If you're wondering why she's suddenly gone back to sleeping in that spot? Because my quilt is under there....on the waiting-to-be-bound pile...and my ''princess and the pea'' baby has decided that it is once again, a soft enough place to sleep!!!
