I'm still alive!

Just taking a moment to give you an update. Sorry I have not posted in such a long time. It has been really hard for me to adjust to Katy and Darin being gone from Texas and all the way to Pennsylvania! I miss them terribly. I just really lost heart in posting after they left and I'm just now getting back to caring about it!

I am probably going to have surgery sometime in May. I am having bariatric surgery to by pass my stomach so that I can lose more weight. I currently have lost 90 pounds, but I need to lose much, much more. I am hoping and praying for a successful procedure and quick recovery so that I can get on with my life. I have missed out on so much. Hopefully, I will get a new outlook and even do some things that are now not possible for me. Two things come to mind: taking a trip in an airplane and wearing jeans!

I am still stamping and making cards. I have a new Cricut machine that I really am having fun with. It is amazing what you can do with it! I am just learning, but it is so much fun.

I've finished knitting a pair of socks for my friend in California. I've been working on them for way too long. Now I am ready to start a spring/summer sweater for Katy. Maybe I'll feel closer to her if I'm working on something for her to wear!

I guess that's it for now. I'll put some pictures up soon of what I'm making. I'll let you all know when the surgery is scheduled!
