Some projects that I have done for the baby.

So I'm a really, really horrible blogger....

Here is a little update on what is going on in my world...It has been a really busy and crazy year.

Just after the first of the year my best friend passed away from a long time struggle with some auto immune health issues and that has been really hard to deal with. I miss her more than words can convey.



She was my rock. She was the one person that I could talk to about all of my health problems and just be able to vent without getting the pity that you see from most people. I still can't believe that she is gone.

I ended up taking a break from classes during the winter since I just could not focus on it.

In february I had my 8th knee surgery, but it was a super easy recovery. I also got a major procedure done on my back that once again failed. I was then pretty much kicked out of my pain clinic because they were unable to come up with any way to treat my pain. :(

In March my mom had surgery on her hip and then we spent the next couple months in and out of the hospital with her due to a bunch of complications. So, needless to say it has been hectic.

Mom just had surgery again a week or so ago, and that did not go as planned and she will be having partial knee replacements done in a few months.

In terms of my health I am now waiting to head to Cleveland Clinic. I was originally supposed to go the end of June, but I was rescheduled for the end of July, so it is coming up next week.

I don't really have very high expectation for the visit, but then again, I never have high expectations when it comes to doctors. :) I know that I am sick to death of feeling like crap and I need some type of change soon. I can't continue to live like this.

On a good and exciting note, my sister is Prego and about to pop any day now. I am so excited to be an Aunt. I look forward to having the little one to play with. We also don't know the gender of the baby, so I'm looking forward to finding out what it is.

Since I had baby stuff to make, I have gotten a ton of knitting and crocheting done. The baby is going to be incredibly spoiled. :)

I have also gotten a couple things done for me lately and that has been nice.




I am hopefully going to get better and keeping this thing updated. :) Wish me luck.

I'm apparently a bad blogger.

I apparently suck at keeping up with my blog. :) I ended up getting the flu and it totally screwed me up. I was super sick and I missed tons of school. :( So then I was trying to catch up and it all just got to be way too much. So I'm taking a little break from school and getting a medical withdrawal because getting the flu and the stress of trying to catch up in school made my EDS and Fibro flare up really bad. :( So now I'm just resting a lot and trying to relax so I will feel better.

I'm going to be going back to school winter semester, but the few weeks that I have with no school will really help. I'm getting a lot of knitting done and just bumming around watching tons of old movies to pass the time.

not feeling so hot.

i've been really productive with my knitting the past few days and I've actually finished my cable knit sweater, but I think I'm getting the dreaded flu. I'm definitely starting to feel really crappy.

But I guess on the bright side I will have a lot of down time when I can work on my knitting. :)

Keeping me sane

lately I have been knitting to keep myself sane. I've been getting a lot of stuff done. I'm rather surprised. I've done a hat and mittens for a friends daughter, and I've done a hat and I almost have mittens for my mother done.

I don't think I've ever been this production with my knitting. I'm also almost done with my cable knit sweater as well as my socks.

New to blogging.

I've never been much for blogging, but I decided it was time I started. It could be fun. :)
