I'll bet you are right.  I think that is pretty common and it certainly would make sense that it could cause irritation to make you hoarse.  Maybe you just need to quietly look at quilt books and plan all the projects you want to do when you are feeling up to it.  Wish I was close enough to come browse with you.

Thanks Carol. I have been wondering if they had to put a tube in my throat while I was in surgery as I have been sounding hoarse to me ever since. My throat has been a bit sore but I thought that is due to the IV that they put into my neck and left there for a week. My veins are very small and ever since I had all the surgeries on my left ankle my veins tend to shut down and they cannot put the meds in thru the IV. The surgeon said that the muscle in my neck was still swollen due to the IV so maybe this hoarseness will go away then.

Glad you are able to be out and about Gayle.  I'm sure the grocery store trip took a lot out of you.  Thank heavens for the stock boy.  Funny how quickly your strength and stamina get sapped when you have a health issue.  I remember after I had back surgery, I decided I could walk to my mailbox and get my mail and not have to wait till Jim got home.  It's only across the street!  I got there and then stood and wondered how in the world I was going to get back without collapsing.  I made it....and you will too.  I'm still praying for a speedy recovery for you.

Cindy really sorry to hear about the DSIL's health issues. Will be sending up prayers for him, your DH and you and DD as well. It seems that everyone's faith is being tested these days.
Lou Ann, it is good to hear from you and I am jealous of your weekend plans. Sorry to hear about your boss's health. When my DH had Lung cancer in '89 they removed the entire left lung. It may be hard going at times but it is possible.
Beth it is good to see you posting and that is great news about your check-ups.
Froggie, I am sew glad that I don't have to go to a commissary to do shopping as I made a short trip to our little local grocers' Thursday and am just now getting over that. It sure whipped me down to nothing and I even grabbed one of the young stock boys to go around with me to pick up things and put them in my cart. He was so sweet and a real life saver.
Carol I love your patio area and the flowers are going to be wonderful. I am ready to get my beds weeded and mulched but not physically ready yet. lol

Forgot - it's one of those virtual visits so the weather will be 80 degrees and sunny with no humidity.  Forget the coat.....but not the wine.

Sure, come on by.  What do you want to grill? I can scout around in the freezer...bratwurst,  burgers, chicken, steaks, or (my favorite) pork chops? And I just bought some corn on the cob - yummy.  Oh and we just bought a new 4 burner grill yesterday so we can break it in and there will be lots of room for all your favorites.    Froggie's bringing wine.  Might want to bring a coat too -- low of 33 degrees tomorrow.

I always thought my cars should be red, MaryAgnes, what else is there? The last two cars have been silver or something. I told the guy I needed color.

I love your back yard, Carol, you have been holding out on us! Everyone gather at Carol's for a cookout! I will bring the wine.

What a long day today, we got to the dealership at 9, and didn't get finished until 12. The salesman found a truck just like the one we were buying, but it had the step, and some fancy dancy wheels. It drives nice. SIL and I went to the outlet mall after lunch, and I found two bathing suits, and three tops. The suits were 40% off, and the tops were great prices, too. Plus, SIL had a $50 off if you spent more than 150. It ended up at about 130 for the whole bunch, and the suits had an original price of $100 each. OUCH! We had a great day. Tomorrow, we are going to go to the New Balance store, and a grocery store that has an awesome bakery. I needed a good day with her, it was lots of fun. The only thing is, no quilting. Oh well, I had fun.

We'll share the sunshine but nobody seems  to want these 30 degree temps.  I'm ready to fast forward to where I complain about the heat.  LOL

What a pretty yard and real sunshine too. I'm coveting your sunshine, LOL.

Cold and rainy here but I did get my planters and annuals out yesterday, so the rain is OK. Too bad the farmers are so behind with our wacky weather.

Have been working on my fabric folding today. Am anxious to get to some of the projects in the new Giftie offerings now that I can see the fabrics again.
