Well Rob's surgery went very well. The whole thing took about 2 hours. He's not in pain, yet, and you'd never know he had surgery today other than he has bandages on his hand/wrist. Which don't look very impressive considering he did have surgery. Hopefully this is a good sign that his hand will take little time to heal. There were not really any specific do's and don'ts other than be careful with it.
While Rob was having his surgery I ran out to Micheal's to get some black and white floss for my booties. I cannot believe I actually was in and out of that store in less than an hour.
Now that I have started this I have completely forgotten what I was going to say. I guess I should make notes so that I don't get on here and do this again! Oh, I did learn how to do hyperlinks which turns out to be a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. Just to show that I do know how I will do one, to a bracelet just click on the word bracelet and you'll be taken there. Mom, if this doesn't work for you it's probably your computer. I tested it and the link does work. I think it's really cool and now I won't have long drawn out URLs messing up the text.
Robyn is coming down tomorrow to clean house. I think the kids may be coming with her and I'm not sure if they will be spending the night or not. Usually they do on weekends. It's really nice for me to have a clean house and even nicer to see my little lovelies. Thank goodness for able bodied daughters!
I found this really nice site for embroidery stitches. Not only does she show the stitches she has other gorgeous things on her site, like pieces she's done. This is her stitch site and this is a page of some of her crazy quilt stitching Some day I'll find the crazy quilt I have in the makings and finish it. It got packed away on one of the numerous occasions when I was forced into packing up everything I own and store it because of guests coming to stay here. It was for Tarah when she was little so that's a good indication of how long this thing has been around. It would be nice to have it finished before Tarah has her first child so it can be for the baby. E-gads, I hope that is not for a very long time to come.
Last night I actually did enter on this blog but I was putting pictures in it and like a fool navigated away from this page and lost the whole thing. I was so bummed. I had put a picture of mom in it and accidentally put it in again which I'm still not even sure how that happened. When trying to remove the second picture the whole post got dumped. So I will put the picture in this one at the bottom. I love the picture too, it's of a very gorgeous mother sitting on a picnic table at Oak Park. I know it's oak park because I remember the cement tables and the houses in the background. I may have cropped most of that out of the picture, we'll see once it's in this post.
The neighbors are having a party, once again. I get so tired of hearing it. Tonight there isn't any music, you can just hear all these voices, getting louder and louder as the night wears on and the booze loosens them up. The girls are the worst, for some reason the really loud ones all have shrill voices and they laugh a lot and very loud. How funny, the music just went on. We called the police once and they actually did show up and the music stopped. It's music from the 80's and pretty bad. Well that is enough rambling for one night, like the title says, booorrring :-)
Here's mom's picture. This isn't as large as I'd like it but it's as big as this blog will allow. Goodnight...
