On Ice... Rest in the nest!

ON ICE

not this kind

not this kind

yep....this is it!

knee surgery on 11/30

and I am NOT a stay at home girl! So I am making plans on what will occupy my time for at least 2 weeks away from my job in the Health Room at school and then light duty when I return. You see I won't be allowed to run with a wheelchair, perform CPR, blah, blah, blah. I know I've told you I love my job...so this is a set back but only temporary.

I've never had any kind of bone or joint repairs. Lucky. Blessed. Tonsils and Adenoids, 2 C- sections, Hysterectomy, 1 Kidney removed but this is more intimidating because it might keep me down! So I've planned ahead...(if pain isn't involved of course, lol) to make cards for Christmas, to donate to local places for fundraisers, to learn some simple beading techniques, watch a few dvds I have wanted to see, and not gain 89 lbs.!!!

so a pedicure is a priority while I can bend my knee

crafts have been purchased at Michael's (with many a coupon I might add)

I've made a list of dvds I would like to see (some I've seen but that never bothers me)

my Kindle is loaded

I'm ready to be as good as new.
If any of you know of someone in the military that would like to have cards sent to them,

it would be an honor to make cards and personalize them for someone special.

Have we told you lately that we love you? We do!

Dear Moms, Dads,Wives, Sisters, Brothers, Aunts, Uncles, Girlfriends, Loved Ones.... yes- all loved ones ... and most of all our soldiers,

Have we told you lately how proud we are? How much we love you? How much we're thinking of you? That we are here for you? Because we are... in our prayers, moments throughout the day, when we see someone in uniform, speak to a friend, correspond with someone else on line. Thank you for the sacrifice of being away from home, your loved ones - for us, for America, for freedom.

Have we told you lately that we love you - We Love You!
