How Can I Be Behind Already?

  What a week!  One of my 2 helpers, Shelby has been sick, for over a week.  She is a French Bulldog, and so sweet.  However, it has made me behind on my Penny Patch QAL with Stitched in Color.  My first QAL too!  I have wanted to do a QAL (Quilt-a-Long) for quite some time now.  I picked this one for a two reasons - I love Stitched in Color's quilts and this is a beginners QAL, allowing a nice slow pace.  I figured the nice slow pace would work well for me if my lupus flared or I just didn't feel well. It all played out nice and tidy in my head.  Apparently, I didn't allow time for any other problems to emerge!  Especially not my dog getting this sick!  We are waiting for more blood work to come back from the vet, to see if Shelby needs to be in the hospital.  She will not leave my lap.  My other helper Al, he's Shelby's son, is raring to go!
