Wine Bottles and Results

Well I hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day weekend! And I hope you don't have to work!

A few weeks ago my husband enlisted the help of one of his friends to donate some wine bottles to me for a Halloween project I seen online.  I have one bottle left but it probably won't be done until tomorrow as the color takes awhile to dry so I thought I'd post what I did.  I thought they were a cute, easy project that anyone can do.  Halloween will be here before you know it!

 
 
I went for my follow up appointment on my upper endoscopy last week.  It showed a little redness which would be common with acid, but otherwise the results were good and showed nothing.  I'm not allergic to gluten either which they test for.  So yet again he sent me home on the same medicine I have been on, now twice a day (which I've done before too).  He did add Pepcid once a day which I haven't tried yet.  We did discuss the fact that it seems to happen more so when I am stressed which he said there are nerves there that can be causing it if it is stress.  There are times when I don't feel stressed though that I do have this tightness in my throat so I don't really know.  Just the tightness can stress me though. It aggravates me more than stresses me, I guess that could be the same thing??  So I go back in the middle of November and see how I've done.  I didn't ask him if there was something for those nerves. I'll see how this goes.
 
 
I took this past Friday off and did some running around.  I went to 5 different stores and I was pooped after that!  I didn't even get to all the places I wanted to.  After 6 hours of running around I had enough.  I did stop by Petsmart and bought a bad of treats and a toy they had on sale for my baskets.  I'm determined to finish these baskets by the end of September.  I still would like to buy a few more things.  I also had some empty baskets here but I think they'll be too small so I'll have to find some at the Salvation Army.  I also want to go by a party store or somewhere to see how much some plastic wrap costs to cover them, maybe with paw prints.  Don't want to spend much on it though.

 
 
 
Between yesterday and today I've been trying to clean and straighten up around the house so I can do nothing tomorrow.  Forgot to mention I also bought 9 yards of material to make some more toys for the shelter here.  I know, I said I wasn't going to do it anymore.  It's such a pain, in my hands, my neck and my back, but I really want to be able to do it for them.  If I take my time and do so many a day like I did last time it won't be as bad.  I bought the material on a good sale on Friday too.
 
 
Well I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend, and their Labor Day.  Don't labor too much tomorrow if you can help it! :)

  1. Skinees may be one of the best dog toy inventions. And yes, I laughed you bought more fabric for dog toys, but I am sure they are rewarding as well.

    Good thing you aren't allergic to gluten! I think that would be a massive pain to deal with. I personally have a huge stress - stomach relationship. And it is kind of a cycle too in which eating anything at all bothers me under stress and then you are stressed from being hungry.

    Cute wine bottle project!

    1. I totally get a nervous stomach. When I go out I tend to try not to eat, and if I do even take a couple bites of something it triggers a my nervous mind thing. It sucks!
