A Little Bit Productive - Decenario (rosary)bracelets

Well all I can say is that a bad back is no fun at all, yesterday I was so taking gibberish due to the meds and today (Thursday) has been only what I can describe as a struggle I seem to be going backwards in relief. I'm hoping that tomorrow will be another story.

I havent been totally idle I have made some bows for the wedding card not many but it is a start, I did them in batches of around 5 then got up and moved to stop my back from seizing.


So in between standing up, laying down, rocking back and forth and sitting I made 4 virgencita or decenario (rosary)bracelets.

Apparently these will be the in thing for this year.


Roll up. Roll up

I've no card to show you due to my ongoing back pain but I wanted to share some exciting news with you.
