Surgery day

My hand surgery went well this morning and I am home safe and sound. The bad storms are over head now so I will keep it short & sweet here. I will be relaxing and taking it easy until I can crochet & knit again. Be well!!!

Happy Monday

Happy Monday to all. It is one of those days for me. I am about to leave for an appt for pre-op surgery on my hand and then off to do some home improvement work. I think I will be getting to bed late tonight. I am still working on my cotton bag & looking for the camera. I know it is here just cannot put my hands on it. I want to also tell you My Mother is going crazy on her knitting. She makes socks now and is a demon at the speed part of sock making. I will get a picture of her socks & see if I can show off her work too.
I will take a picture of the sock I made for my Deddy and show you but I will warn you it looks like a "Who" sock from Dr Seuss. I have laughed about it many times but hope it fits. He has a 13 1/2 shoe size with a EEE width. I challenge YOU to make one that don't look like a Who sock.
Speaking of Whos. I saw Horton hears a Who. I love it until they stuck Anime in it. Those of you who know and love me know I HATE Anime. I am tolerant of it for sure ( I just hate how kids today copy Anime & don't draw their own original work) but it was uncalled for in this film. It distracted from the Seussical feel of the film. I laughed so hard at times I felt like I was 6 again & reading "Green Eggs & Ham".
OK I need to get my shoes on. I should not have stayed up so late last night playing Mahjong Safari. I am now whipped in the sleep dept. LOL MY Fault & I know it!
Thought for the day: Bitter is the seed that is sown from hatred, Thorny is the flower grown.
Be well and give peace a chance.

Maundy Thursday

Today is the celebration of the Last Supper. To me it is the holiest of communions. I am a Disciples of Christ and plan on trying a new church tonight. That is a bit risky because once we tried a church and they did a lot of Gregorian chants. It was a lot different from our norm so we have not been back to that yet.
I finished one of my Dad's socks and started another purse. I am also working on a cotton bag for my sock projects. I have about 20 things going.
Today health wise, it has been a great day!!! I tell you that Synvisc stuff is good as gold to me!
I know why CATastrophe has the first 3 letters as CAT. Dan broke a glass bowl today and sometime in the night, he knocked the laundry detergent off of the washer and broke the cap so the laundry room now needs major clean up. He is on my hit list for sure!!! I did step on his tail when he did his speed bump impression. I will tell that tale another day.
I am missing my Wine, Women & Wool night and sad about that but I have transportation for Saturday so I will see the girls then.
OK I dont know much else except that my parents are in TX from SC and will not be stopping in to see me & I am a bit sad about that too. Maybe I need a mild pitty party...LOL
Love yas!!!!!
Be Well & Give Peace a chance...pay it forward.

Saturday Snippets

Happy Saturday to you all! Progress is measured only by the depth of the lesson learned. Wow that seems deep but really we all know this. You cannot go forward without a lesson learned! I am proof in the daily life I struggle to cope with and find answers to. Monday is only worth living through because Tuesday follows. I am finally at a place where I can walk around in comfort and not struggle to just stand. Synvisc has changed my life for the better. I am surprised it works so well with my OA. Today is a good day and I feel like this has been a good experience. Now I admit the pain of the injection is brutal but it stops hurting the next day.
What am I working on??? I have a pair of socks for my Dad (one sock done) and a new yarn I am trying to make into socks (not even cast on yet but frogged 3 times UGH). I am working on a purse, a swiffer cleaner pad, and a red purse I just started. I have the gloves going in a light purple that I will be making flowers for. I am sure there are other projects, but I am so unorganized, I am not sure what they might be.
When I find my camera, I will post some pictures of finished projects. Until then, I will remain text only. LOL Be well & think peace.
