What a lovely blog! I know how frustrating a running injury can be. I'm sure you hear a lot of remedies, but at the risk of being repetitive, let me offer the solution to my running issues. I have been using a high density foam roller (http://www.power-systems.com/p-3027-high-density-foam-rollers.aspx) for hip flexor issues for a few weeks now. Before using it, I could barely walk without pain in my knee or hip. After using it just once to loosen up my hip flexor, I had no more pain. I've been using it daily since and continue to be able to run without pain during or after. Just thought I'd pass this information along!<br /><br />Also: Hurrah for freckles!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03161572430785172201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-5427104676930288632011-04-11T23:11:32.625-05:002011-04-11T23:11:32.625-05:00What a couple of beauties...I am sure you will tre...What a couple of beauties...I am sure you will treasure both for a long time...enjoy them..LindaBLindaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08143932312515652755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-68861686628759947972011-04-08T11:43:33.402-05:002011-04-08T11:43:33.402-05:00Yeah!

Sewing machine cabinets make nice end tables, servers in dining rooms or kitchens. My White-in-a-cabinet is a server in my kitchen until I move to a larger home where I can have room to open it and use it again. BTW I love finding boxes and tins of vintage sewing stuff!Lucky Duck Dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01968961207550409189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-61764298033817144792011-04-04T19:39:11.526-05:002011-04-04T19:39:11.526-05:00Wow, you had the best kind of walk imaginable.
