Have been busy these past few days and this is the first I have been on since Friday. Finished the baby quilt, but wrapped it before I got a picture so hopefully my daughter was able to get one when the girl unwrapped her gift. Then today have been busy catching up on squares I needed to complete for the monthly $5 quilt and am now working on stips for a set of 4 placemats for my next door neighbor for helping me with the many lawn leaf cleanups and mowing when SIL can not come and do it. I also have a mystery quilt I need to catch up on that our quilting guild is doing, and complete a scrappy heart quilt for my only granddaughter. It has to be done, at least the top and backing by Nov. 10 when I will use the long arm at the LQS. This will be my first time on the long arm. Then I have a ton of Christmas project to do. I will probably wait til next year with some of them. Then there are the 5 grandsons I want to make quilts for. As soon as I can find out what the oldest thinks he will be majoring in in college I will go with that theme. The other 4 I have no idea and any suggestions are welcome. Ages 13,10,5,4. The 2 older ones are brothers and the two youngest ones are brothers.
Weight wise not to hot this past week. Managed to gain all back and I know why so will work on that this week.
Have a great day and See you later.

BTW: What in the world is a $5.00 a month quilt?

OH. MY. GAWD.
I just got home a few minutes ago from the hospital where I had my last nutrition class and the pre-op diet program class.
It went great as always but that is NOT the good news.
Drumroll please.......
I have lost a grand total since the end of April.....
FIFTY POUNDS!!! That is right. I did say FIFTY. Holy 100-calorie packs of guacamole!!! I could barely believe my eyes.
I am just so happy and all I have to do now is have my last psychologist appointment this week and to see the internist one last time next week. Then they send all the stuff in my file to the surgeon and in a couple weeks they should schedule my surgery!
I am soo excited!!!
Anyway. That is my good news.
Oh. Wait. How in the world can I tell you guys my good news and leave Mike out of it? What WAS I thinking??
Mike is doing great and we are going to have lunch tomorrow and then go grocery shopping. Not really romantic but anytime I am with him I am a happy girl. *big grin*
So, there. I am done now. Go back to your regularly scheduled program.

I went to my first yoga class today and loved it. Being the age I am (which my mind tells me I am not) and the extra weight, I did some yoga exercises and stretches I thought I would never be able to do. But to my surprise, I did them and I felt so good about it. My hubby was very happy for me. I am beginning at once a week and then I will do more once I get used to the routine. I'm excited about it.
