While I was recuperating I tried to stay immobile to allow to ribs to heal as quickly as possible. I can tell you this is VERY boring... Luckily we had a trip planned to Seaside Oregon with some friends for a week to play in a competitive bridge tournament. This not only allowed me to sit still but the time passed very quickly. This is only a portion of the tables in play on the first floor of the convention center.. there was a second floor and two additional venues. During a game you could hear a pin drop in this large room... During the course of the day, ALL of these players will play the same exact hands at some time.... the object is to play them better...
As an added bonus we scored first in a team event with our friends.... I came home feeling much better.

Wow!Congratulations!
good to know the ribs are healing well. Loving your cray block so much in it beautifully done. Have never played bridge but can see it is very very popular in the USA, congratulations of winning the award
Gerri, glad that you are feeling better. I know how antsy I get when I have to be still. The new block is lovely. I really want to try making some of those ribbon trims. Can you let me know some of your sources, either online or books. Thanks! Sarah
Love your corset ladies! Congrats on your bridge win! Good way to heal your body while exercising your brain!
Wow, that's a whole lot of bridge players. I love your block - everything just seems to fit. I have several long-term projects on the go that I work on sporadically and when I go back to them I seem to have changed the working style and have lost the original focus. Luckily, they will be in book form so it won't be so noticeable. Glad to hear you are healing and getting your mojo back :)
I thought at first you'd gone to a conference -- all those tables of people! Congratulations on your win...and on your very pretty July CQ block. :-)
Such a beautiful block! I must admit I've never played bridge but understand it can be quite challenging, so congratulations on your win. Competing against all those people must have been amazing.
