Thank you so much to everyone who sent positive thoughts & vibes my way for Friday’s pre-op assessment!! It worked!! Not only did all the necessary boxes get checked but they offered me a surgery slot for next Tuesday!! Result!!
so, at 7.30am I will arrive on the Day Surgery Ward & then wait to be given my theatre time! I am so pleased that I will be getting a full ten weeks recovery before my holiday in Turkey…physio here I come!!
The one thing I’m so looking forward to is a full, unbroken nights sleep...in my bed, as opposed to the recliner sofa! That & being able to swim again!! Can you tell I’m a happy bunny…I’ll be even happier when the pain is gone…even with extra scars to show for the experience!!
Maybe I can trouble you to hold onto those positive thoughts for Tuesday too? Just in case!!!
I can’t believe I neglected to mention in my last post that one of the first things I did when we regained our internet connection, was to sign up for Tim Holtz’s first ever online class, called ‘Creative Chemistry 101’…
“In Creative Chemistry 101 Tim Holtz teaches the “science” behind it all. This class will give you the confidence to experiment with an abundance of techniques and give you ideas for ways to use all the creative mediums in your stash. This jam-packed online workshop is your front row seat to 100% technique know-how.”
…it looks right up my street as it’s all about techniques, rather than specific projects. I’d rather learn ‘How to’ & put that knowledge into my own designs, than take a class where I end up with an album full of someone else’s designs!! It always feels a bit like painting by numbers!
I’m looking forward to cracking open some of the Ranger products in my stash that I’ve never got around to using, simply because I’m not sure what I can do with them, other than the obvious!!
So watch this space…although I’ll be in catch-up mode from the start with my surgery being on day 2 of class!! Ah well…needs must!!
I’m off to finish the laundry & take a batch of jam tarts out of the oven! I’m in overdrive trying to make sure everything is up to date, so I can afford to be ‘out of action’ for as long as I need to be post-op!!
Thanks for stopping by & do come back very soon {{HUGS}}

And people moan about the NHS ! Just think what we all get for free. I bet a few of your Stateside readers would be very jealous.
Good luck for next week and I bet Lee can't wait to listen to your snoring again !
Hurray! That's the best news I've heard this week. Best of luck
Glad to hear it,Sandi.....good luck.
Great news. I recognised that door sign... I know just where you'll be on Tuesday! I wish you luck and will be thinking of you, from 3 miles on the other side of the River!
Hope it all goes brilliantly and you have a good and speedy recovery. XX
I'll lift a prayer for you Monday night, Sandi, if I wait until I get up Tuesday you'll be out of surgery. I am so glad that you will have a longer time for PT before your trip :)
Will be thinking of you on Tuesday and wishing you well. Bet you are counting the hours now! Hope all goes according to plan and you are soon home starting your convalescence x
That's good news Sandi,I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and also look forward to 'seeing' you in class- can't wait. I'm looking forward to finding out all the technical bits too.. Hope all goes well tomorrow x x
I'm catching up slowly with my blog reading and I've just seen this. I hope you're relaxing and taking things easy. Sending love xxx
