Due to a friend's prompting I went to the doctor a couple of weeks ago to have a lab run for Lyme Disease. I got the results today and I have tested positive. When it was first suggested I went online to see if what I have been suffering was truly related to the disease, and based on the write ups I believe that I have actually been suffering for quite a wile--maybe for most of my time in WA (one of the first things we did was go for a hike up to MT Rainier when we got to WA; then we spent alot of time hiking during our 3yrs in WA). If I am wrong, I could have contracted it in Jan (when I went camping with Nibbs for a wet weekend in WA) or July (when we went hiking in Cloudcroft, NM).
I am grateful that my friend followed her instincts and suggested I get tested. And I am grateful I didn't resist going to the doctor (like I always do).
Today, I will be correcting a mistake I made on a smock/chemise and dropping it back into the mail. If I have time, I will be constructing a new low neck smock/shirt for myself and to use as an example of my work on Etsy.com . If I like how it looks with the Dorothy I will keep it, if not then I will put on sale and construct a high neck smock (where the body of the garment lays flat and does not gather into the neck-- vs a chemise where the body of the garment gathers into the neck) instead.
Ciao for now,
