Merry Christmas. May GOD Bless all your homes and families.

Well I am finally back on the computer for small amounts of time. I had to have surgery on my shoulder for a torn rotator cuff. Wow this was about the most painful surgery I have been thru. I cannot use my arm for 6 weeks. I can move the lower half a bit now so I can knit for short periods of time..... I also found out that I have blood clots so I am on blood thinners. The clots are caused by a genetic disorder so the treatment is not clear to me yet. I have to meet a cancer and blood specialist to find out exactly so far it looks like shots for 7 days in my stomach that was joyful twice a day. My poor tummy is so bruised. and then pills for 3 months. Christina will have to undergo testing also to see if she has this. The shoulder was pretty bad from the pictures they had to put in a screw and scrape the bones to reconnect the muscels and tendons.


THE GREAT NEWS IS HUBBY IS RETIRED FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.... YEAH.... I do not know what I would do without him here. He is so helpful and is doing most of all the work and housework.


The pugs are doing great. We took them to a wonderful holistic vet that found out that they are allergic to chicken and grain.. so it is homecooking for them... and lots of turkey...

well I have to stop now... Hope to post more later after I rest this shoulder up...

Happy Knitting.
