Bunion Surgery Update
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: September 23, 2007
Update on surgery by “the husband” crossposted from my blog.
Bunions are the boney growth on the outside of the big toe. The arrow in the picture above should be pointing to the bump on my bff Posh’s foot. They grow and push the big toe into the other toes and are very painful and make it difficult to [...]

Have our class set up for us to learn Continental Knitting! Going to Angel Hair Yarn Co. on Sunday, Oct. 7th. Ended up with seven us going to learn this. They were so accommodating on a time that was convenient to all of us.
We are falling apart!

OK, this is very interesting, weird, or whatever you want to call it! Emily, Pat and I were roommates for the S.E.X. trip; Emily is having surgery 9/21 on her spine; I’m having surgery on my foot the same day! Pat called and said while she likes being roommates with Emily and I, she’s not [...]

Last “normal” day for me!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: September 20, 2007
Today will be the last “normal” day for me for awhile. Tomorrow I’m having bunion surgery! AGH! Needs to be done if I don’t want to wear flip-flops all winter. Eight week recovery time and I’ve got more projects to work on than I’ll probably complete during this time. But never fear….the other foot needs [...]
Perfect Sunday!

Finally, the weather has gotten to what I call perfect. Very low humidity and in the 70’s.
Pat came over for awhile in the afternoon and we sat in the gazebo knitting, talking, and mostly laughing! She’s so much fun!!!
She started a baby blanket for her grandson before he was born. He’ll be one in December [...]

Well, tomorrow morning we’ll be sipping coffee at Panera Bread before some people go to knitting class.
Also waiting to hear on the finalization of our Continental knitting class. Ended up with 7 of us taking the class; how nice to be accommodated on a Sunday afternoon!!! Won’t be for a couple of weeks but will [...]

Picked up a card from another yarn shop today in Murfreesboro, TN. It’s called The Knaughty Knitter. Looks like this would be another fun place to roadtrip to some day!
Yarn shop visits

Cat and I traveled to Nashville today to visit Haus of Yarn . WOW! Just gorgeous stuff everywhere you looked. This was what I could call “a touch and feel” trip. Made us want to head right home and get knitting using our stash before adding too much to it. LOL
Decided we had a little [...]
New project – # umpteen hundred
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: September 9, 2007
Working on a new project for me, yep me!!! It’s the Berroco Oakley shaw (from #225 Scarves and more booklet) made out of suede; using a teal color. However, it was suggested at the LYS, that I might want to knit it backwards from the directions; instead of starting out with 2 stitches, and increasing [...]

- Ah….life in the fast lane November 10, 2009At least that’s how I like to think of it! Things have been testy around the house since the bionic man got a new knee. Seems like we’ve had lots of repairmen, which ultimately leads to lots of barking. Derby, our found on the streets of Nashville dog, absolutely cannot help himself when it comes to [...]keepingyouinstitches
- A new and colorful knee! October 24, 2009Tuesday (and this is Saturday) Mark got a new knee; it’s getting more and more colorful! Came home Thursday and trotted him off to rehab on Friday morning. Coloring goes pretty much around the whole knee….wowee! Or maybe I should say owie! Staples come out Nov. 3 and yes, there will be documentation of that too; most [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Very technologically challenged….oh yes, I am October 18, 2009For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how I was receiving voice mails on my cell phone when it was sitting right next to me! This has been going on for about a week now. Lo and behold, there’s a tiny button on the side of the iphone that if it gets moved, mutes [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Hubby getting new knee………finally! October 17, 2009OK, readers, it’s Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is new knee day for hubby. He’s already commented a couple of times what a long week-end this will be; add the cold, crappy weather that is predicted, and it will be even longer. I’m trying to play cruise director in making plans that will keep him busy. So [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Generic vs. generic drugs October 13, 2009I’m so fortunate to have health insurance…..some would call it good health insurance. However, today I received a letter from the insurance company stating that the drug I take for acid reflux is now going to be re-classified and will have a high cost…oh, wait, “cost may increase” are the actual words. How absolutely dumb do [. […]keepingyouinstitches
