Still sewing, but some good wishes would be appreciated...

Still not getting to the quilting! Costumes stacking in holding patterns...



Anyway, Alan goes in tomorrow for day surgery: carpal tunnel surgery. Ugh. I feel for him! Wrist will be out of action for a while: gonna make grocery shopping a load of fun - not! We may just have to starve! ;) Not allowed to drive for about a month, and I don't. GMNT not old enough yet...



Anyway, while this really isn't all that serious, some good wishes winging Alan's way would give him a lift, I'm sure.


Just amke sure they have enough airspace not have collisions ;-)

Are you close enough to Tesco/Sainsbury/Waitrose to get the groceries delivered? I know they charge a delivery fee, but it's better than starving, especially with a GMNT to feed. Either that or you'll have to send Sugar Puff & Cornflake out bunny hunting.

Hope all goes well and the results are as needed.

Prayers for a quick recovery...

and I can't believe I need to ask this .. but what is GMNT??

Thank you.

Giant Mutant Ninja Teenager - the one that used to be this cherub!

Now 5'11" and built like a brick netty: stands foresquare to the world and waves break against him! He's as broad across the shoulders as his dad, and takes the same size in stuff: 40"/L chest, 38" waist. And only

14...

I have a friend lined up to hel with the shopping. Planning meals he can eat one-handed will be fun... I can see mince in various forms looming!

Thanks for the good wishes - much appreciated.

Prayers for Alan's quick and thorough recovery on the way from Indiana. And for you and the GMNT in the meanwhile!

I hope it all goes very smoothly and that he'll have a speedy and painless recovery, Kate.

Kate, my DH had CT surgery two weeks ago. It went *very* well, with amazing, immediate results. I hope your Alan's is the same.

All the best, Kate.

Sherry's post is very encouraging. . In message , Kate XXXXXX writes

Thinking the good thoughts here. Hope one handedness doesn't make him too cranky.

Stone soup and meals out of tins only make them appreciate you more.

I remember my brothers at that age. MSM could not keep a loaf of bread or a a gallon of milk in the house. They would disappear as fast as she could get them home from the store.

Good wishes from sunny Cornwall Kate. I had Carpel Tunnel op some years back. pity Alan doesnt sew as it did nt stop me.

Well, if you want to teach him some Swedish, you can say "krya p=E5 dig!" (pronounced "kree-ya po day" if you speak Swedish with a South Carolina accent like I do!)
