Poop Happens

I just wanted to thank MeMarieLane. I really appreciated the blog that you posted about poop titled Everything you never wanted to know about poop. It came in handy and I am forever thankful however the recipient is probably not so much happy. If you are looking to send a gift of poo, go to Poopsenders. Again, Thank you.

First Day of School Woo Hoo!!!!!!

Boys went off to school this morning. Summer is over!!!!

More of the same

This is today's effort. It is a 0-3 month size. I made it with cotton and pink tule. It is like a baby ballerina dress. The Blue one from yesterday is a newborn size. That one was silk dupioni. It may be a bit rich for a newborn dress but oh well.

Crafty Me

So I have had the crafting bug lately. I have been a busy bee.

Home from the hospital

I was discharged from the hospital at 11am today. I am in a good deal of pain but not completely unbearable. I am sure it will pass in a few days. I only get clear liquids for the next 2 days and that sucks. I want something to chew. Oh well. It is the price of beauty.I will post some pics later.

Day Before Surgery

So here I am, and I am kinda mad. You ever find out the people you think you can depend on are nowhere to be found. I am not really mad. I just wish folks would return my calls and emails.

I am having Lap Band surgery tomorrow. My husband is in MA for another 2 months. My mom can't come out till Tuesday and none of my friends will be there after the surgery. Don't get me wrong. I have a friend taking me the 90 mile drive to the hospital. I have a friend watching my dog and one watching the smallest of my offspring. I just wish someone could be there or that I had a place to go before my mom can pick me up. As it stands now I will be waiting at the hospital after they release me on Tuesday till my mom can get there from Palm Springs. It is not promising. I also had a hell of a time finding anyone to go out to dinner with. I am calling it my Last Supper and I practically had to beg to get someone to go out with me. My Neighbor went and we had a great time. so, enough of my little pity party.

I am going to bed early and to Hell with cleaning my house. No solid food for me for the next 3 weeks. That will be great fun. Well here is to my new skinny bod. Wish me well.

New True Friends

I have made some really good friends in a very short time here. It is amazing how an experience under pressure can bind people together. There are two in particular that I think I may keep forever. One is my friend Liz. I have to remind my self once in a while that she is only in her early 20's because she is an old soul. She is one of the neatest people I have met since we moved to Arizona. Her son is the biggest bundle of energy I have ever seen and he is in love with Abby. Can't say as I can blame him. She was contemplating changing schools next year so that she would not have to commute but I begged her to stay. I know it is selfish so sue me.



The other is the new love of my life. Just kidding, he plays for the other team. John is not my love but he has made a special place in my heart. He is another once in a lifetime friend. With the surgery in my future he has promised to help take care of me. We were almost inseparable in clinicals.

I am so lucky to have met suck wonderful people. I have not found many out there that I felt I could lean on. In fact it is a very small and exclusive little club (right Steph). I trust very few. These two have made an impression. There is nothing more to say but that I have been blessed.
