Having TMJ Disorder Sucks All the Fun Out of Eating

Apparently, I am under too much stress.  And apparently, the only way my body knows to deal with it is to manifest itself in strange, irritating symptoms that leave me running to the hospital every other week (I’m exaggerating – but it feels like it.)  At least now we know why, but do I really have to stop eating Swedish Fish?

So Focused, I’m Not Blogging

I knew I hadn’t written here for a little bit, but I hadn’t realized it has been nearly a month since my last post. Needless to say, not a lot of sewing has been going on over here, but I have been pretty busy getting things in order. Let me try to catch you up.
