The birds are having breakfast in the snow.

Good News

The lung mass is benign, but still needs to be removed. I will think of this as a second chance, an opportunity to take care of myself and get healthy. I am overwhelmed by the love and support of my family, friends and coworkers.

Christmas Eve 2009

What a wonderful Christmas we had this year. My daughter Jamie took over and did all the baking and most of the cooking and cleaning. Everyone helped out. Thanks to my husband Tom and his girls too for helping.

Monster Monday

Went to the hospital again this morning for more blood work. Tomorrow morning is my lung biopsy.

I needed a distraction when I got home, so I sort of finished a monster doll I've been working on. She still needs a little stitching on her face for nostrils, lashes and brows. They are drawn on with a sharpie for now. She is sitting in my chair. The one where I watch tv and crochet.

Some New Things For My Etsy Shop

I finally finished a few projects I've been working on for my Etsy Shop. The orange cowl I made last winter, the blue scarf was made two weeks ago and the cuff is just a new idea I wanted to try

Crafting Bag

I found this crafting bag while I was shopping with my daughter. It seems like the perfect thing to carry all the supplies I need for a project on the go.
