Happy new years to you.<br />I had a very sore neck towards the end of last year and my GP did acupuncture. I remember sitting there thinking this is never going to work but low and behold a couple of hours later the pain had lessened considerably. It took a while but he made it bearable and now pain has completely gone.<br />Hope you are better soon.Julie's Journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03816311317960631640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31711654.post-71966209816322229772013-01-12T22:50:41.509-05:002013-01-12T22:50:41.509-05:00Gillie---you could bundle up in your mukluks, your...Gillie---you could bundle up in your mukluks, your bearskin hat and your your sealskin coat, but better to be warm and cozy inside!<br /><br />EC---Wishing cool breezes for you soon, and relief for the rest of the fire plagued areas too...<br /><br />Pauline---I have to enjoy making it---that's the first rule of Molly quilting! If not, it'll never get finished. Blue bunnies and pink elephants----nah, I don't think so!<br /><br />Persi---A healthy baby is what everybody wants, naturally, but a healthy baby girl would make me doubly ecstatic! And I reckon you and I are about the same age----'48 was a very good year!<br /><br />WWW---When my second grandson was on the way I asked the Stargazer and his partner what colours they'd like in a quilt for him. They chose, to my chagrin at the time, black with primary colours. Took me a long time to get my head around that, but it turned out absolutely stunning.... <br /><br />Isabelle---I'll see what I can do---though you may get so bored you beg me to stop!<br /><br />Greetings One Woman, thanks for visiting!

I never have and never will. Primary colours are fabulous for infant stimulation. My toddler girls wore black and looked stunning.<br />I do hope your neck clears up Molly and soon, how annoying.

I haven't yet but others rave about it.<br />XO<br />WWWWisewebwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281689872840844191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31711654.post-43929333810885168632013-01-12T00:34:28.512-05:002013-01-12T00:34:28.512-05:00Molly, Happy New Year, and I hope your neck gets b...Molly, Happy New Year, and I hope your neck gets better soon.

It is amazing how fast you feel just what is connected to de neck bone, when it is out of sorts.<br />Early morning is about the only time I can sit on the veranda at the moment. Our heat wave (and fires) are continuing. The grass fires we were experiencing here a few days ago are now out, and I hope the rest of the country is as lucky.

Your neck must be good and strong from all that reaching upward into fruit trees! Best wishes to you too for a productive year---avocados, kiwis and of course quilts!<br /><br />S&S--Yes, I don't mind waiting. I don't think I'd want to know the gender either before the baby is born. That was half the thrill---not knowing until it was obvious!<br /><br />SAW---I hear ya!

But I do hope you recover quickly and don't sit through it too often . <br />You'll have a lovely quilt made in seconds when the baby's born and you know who you're making it for .
