Going Under the Knife

I've been pretty busy with midterm stuff for school, but I have managed to complete a few smaller projects. Some crocheted wire and bead bracelets, and a small heart-shaped pillow. I haven't had time to take pictures yet, but will try to do that late next week. I also received the mannequin head I purchased off of Ebay, and can finally take some better pictures of things I've had sitting around waiting for good pics for my shop. I have to say, that having it sitting on the table in the living room has made things interesting. Nothing like walking out of the bedroom half awake to see a severed head sitting on the table.

My surgery is scheduled for Tuesday morning, and although I'm really excited about the prospect of my pain and other crap being reduced, or possibly eliminated, I'm extremely anxious as well. I don't do too well in situations involving doctors, needles, and being sliced open. I've just been trying to stay extra busy to keep my mind off of it. The fact that I have assignments due in my online classes the day after surgery has helped. I'm trying to get them all finished before tomorrow when we leave for our trip to Greensboro. I'm hoping a little R&R before heading to Chapel Hill for the surgery helps.

I've got lots of supplies and ideas ready to keep my busy during recovery. Actually, so much stuff planned that it will probably take me months to get through it all, so I definitely won't be bored. Plus, I have all this stuff I need to take pictures of, lol. Oh, and Chad knows how to make the smoothies now, so I'm all set. :)
