MARCHing ONWARD

Thankfully it is March with, hopefully, the snow and below freezing temperatures a thing of the past.  Friday I worked outside picking up limbs from the blizzard 1.5 hours in the morning, and again after lunch for another 1 hour.   The more I walked around the yard the more limbs I found.  Some were long and heavy which required me dragging them into the woods.  Didn't really feel up to going back out after lunch  but did anyway.  Then Saturday I work about 1.5 hours again.  

My body feels as if it was in a car accident ~ every muscle in my body hurts, but particularly the rotator cuff on the right side.  That isn't just from this latest task but worsened from the yard work.  Last night I couldn't get comfortable in bed and had to use my left arm to assist moving the right arm when I rolled over.  

Obviously I did NOT go outside and work today.  Instead I watched the last couple episodes of The Traitors US which I enjoy watching but couldn't/wouldn't participate as I'd not be successful as either a Traitor or Faithful.   And would be hard pressed to convince myself  "it's just a game".  Rob was a fantastic Traitor!

Anyway, marching onward..... here is the latest update on 1870 Horse.
You have probably noticed the cost of linen, and probably all foundation cloth had a big increase.  I'm aware of the linen cost since that is what I use.  It is now $41.50 per yard for the 64" natural primitive linen.  Which means patterns will increase in price too, by everyone selling them if they hadn't done so yet.

Years ago I sold items on eBay and discontinued selling there and on etsy when they required our social security numbers.  No way was I  going to put my SS number on a web site where money flows and prime for hacking.  Since it had been years decided to go through the motions of listing a rug to see if it required the SS number.  Nope, it didn't; perhaps that was one of the changes since Trump and his "no tax on tips".  So I listed one hooked rug to see if it sells.  Doubt it will sell but nothing ventured nothing gained and I'm testing the waters.

Hoping sleep goes better tonight and looking forward to my sore muscles and rotator cuff returning to their normal discomfort levels.  Happy March Y'all.
