What did you learn about your hip? Where does it hurt? I am having something – pulled muscle? – at the top of my right thigh right below my ‘glutes’. Ouch. It is keeping me from running and swimming much.
I appreciate the charitable work you and your family do. What a rewarding feeling it must have been to put together those bags.
Love the pillows and the new desk. Your facelift in the den is really looking fresh and updated.
Looks like you had a busy July! I love your summer pillow covers! They turned out great!
I hope you got some answers to your hip pain!
