I did not work on Chief at all this week as I am trying to hurry and finish the secret stitching project. You can see on the right side part of my Q-snaps, don't you just love Q-snaps. I sure do and they make life so much easier. The colors in this are fantastic with a lot purple's and yellow's, I am so excited about this stitch. Sorry I can't show you more as I am afraid it will give it away. . I went Monday to my Surgeon's office and guess who has a surgery date. YAY!!! Come May 29th at 11:30 am I will have surgery for gastric bypass and help my hernia. He said he isn't going to repair the hernia just yet as it will come back after all the weight loss, but he will get the stuck intestine out and put a stitch in so it won't go back in. That will be a relief in itself from the pain and I won't have to be so careful. I haven't been able to lift more then 5 pounds this past year and half or put any strain at all due to it being very dangerous of cutting the intstines off. So I will be able to lift my girls (Yorkies). YAY!!! The Dr. was very happy when he came into the room cause I lost 56 pounds since Sept., I lost 4 pounds over last week. YAY!!! He asked for 25 pounds so I gave him 56, just couldn't help myself. lol As we were leaving I could hear him over telling all his nurses that I lost so much on my own. :) Sure makes a person feel good when a Dr. was bragging on ya. . That's another reason I am postponing the Chief, due to surgery. The Chief has been in the process for a year now, what's another few more weeks. I do need to finish the secret project before surgery. . I will post the photos of the flowers budding in my yard in a few days, maybe tomorrow. I hope you have a very creative weekend and week.
