Surgery and Snow Storm

So yesterday I had my surgery. It went well. I wasn't in much pain and had very little Nausea afterwards. yay! So that's all over finally. I'm so glad. I came home and slept most of the evening etc.

While I was in Pre-Op it started snowing, and by the time I could go home (around5pm) it had snowed several inches. It was a messy drive home, there were plows on the road but it was so thick and coming down so fast they didn't help much.

Today I've been knitting and shredding old paperwork and just taking it easy overall. It's been a good day to do that.

Poor Jordan though, he has the entire responsibility of digging out both cars since I'm not capable. I feel so bad for him having to do that. I guess tomorrow I may help to clean the windows off- but nothing too crazy. Gotta take it easy.

Hope that Everyone is having a great St. Patty's Day!

March ALREADY?!


Jordan's Sock #1


Just a pic of a bridge we went over
when moving to Massachusetts
Think it was in Upper state NY

OMG- Where and what have I been doing? I have been neglecting my wonderful little bloggie. lol. Ok, so let's see what I've been up to lately.

1. Knitting and going to Knitting groups
2. Enjoying snow with kiddies
3. Staying warm on these lovely 10 degree and under mornings
4. Planning a trip to NYC and NC
5. and last but obviously not least WORKING!

Life's good- just really busy currently. Movies from netflix and an occasional movie outing are about the most exciting things recently. We have been snow tubing a couple times. Jordan and I went in January and I took some kids that I keep. It is so fun and get this- only 15 mins- down the road from our home. It's amazing, i pass it everyday and I'd probably go every week if we could.

Movies we've recently watched

1. 300 *****
2. Pan's Labyrinth **** (Sadly I could not finish this movie- too weak)
3. The Da Vinci Code ***
4. The Departed *****
5. The Prestige ****
6. Little Miss Sunshine ****
7. The City of Lost Children *****
8. Ong-Bak ****
9. District B-13 ***
10. Full Metal Jacket ****

Other Happenings-

When: March 16th 3pm
Where: Anna Jacques Hospital
What: Surgery, Hysteroscopy and D&C to remove Uterine Cyst/Polyp (or whatever it is causing all the problems!)

Afterwards, I am planning to spend my entire weekend after the surgery knitting my fingers away! I have no plans of moving out of bed other than to move to the couch! haha.

Wish me luck with the surgery, being that I am a bit nervous, but I know it will go well.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week. I can't wait for our weekend, finally some warmer weather.
