Ok, I've been trying not to do too much since I'm cut back on my medication until surgery, but geez, what a lot of nervous energy. I started some socks last night with Tofutsies yarn that I've had laying arouond since last spring. Ahhhhhhhh! I hate the waiting. Larry being away all this week isn't helping, but what are ya gonna do. Hmmm, let's just see what projects I can complete!! LOL
OTN: Wristlets with Noro Silk Garden; Garter Rib Sweater (Summit Hill Cornflower Blue color); throw (Suri Alpaca from KnitPicks); throw (Lion Homespun) . I'm sure I'll find something else to start before the holidays. Can you say, "Yarn ADHD?!"
Whoever said that nurses knew how to party must've been spying on those SLH L&D nurses!! Here we are on one of our seasonal "Girl's Night Out" parties. Last week they all took me out to dinner to Olive Garden--what a blast we had. It's been difficult to get together due to our health issues: Denise's cancer, Duby & Janis's bunion surgery, Kath's mutilated foot, & Marie's diabetic baby...sheesh!! They're a great bunch of girls...I love 'em!! Next party planned for February '08!!
Okay, I suppose in 7 days, this will be me after my spinal fusion next Monday...a sick pup in bed knitting (hopefully I'll feel well enough for that - I have many X-mas gifts to finish)!! I'm getting nervous now . Hopefully, I'll be back to my ol' self soon.
46 year-old married (Larry) mother of 2 teenagers & one adult daughter. I'm a disabled labor/delivery nurse (injured my back on the job) awaiting major back surgery in fall.
I spend most of my time with my kids and my 2 beloved shelties (Sable & Buddy). While I'm not the greatest knitter, I'm constantly @ it trying to learn new techniques. I also meet with local knitters in the area frequently to share projects, tips, & company.
