Jawjaw, your majesty, I keep thinking I am going through a second hysterectomy, LOL. I really need this rest in all honesty, and I definitely want to catch up on some things that I want to do, but kept putting off. I have been doing more crafts such as crochet, knitting and I am dabbling in knitting crocheting with beads. We have to wear badges at work, and I wanted to wear something nicer around my neck for the badge. So I took some yarn and beads and crocheted a necklace, added the ring on it to clip the badge. Well now I've been getting requests from others at work for some. I also made a cell phone cozy, which I use for my mp3 player, and to my surprise, I am getting requests for these as well. So now I will be able to fullfil these requests.
I love you alot!
Cathi

Others have suggested this to me, and it has crossed my mind. I will see how things are after the 6 weeks. By that time, we will have so many craft bazaars, so the timing will be perfect.
That was another irritating factor. I like to wear long necklaces, but the other badge necklace I had was getting in the way. This way, I kill two birds with one stone!!!
When I get a chance, I'll take a picture of them and post it in the craft section. I'll try to do it sometime next week. It doesn't take long, it's just that I forget to do these type of things. I just finished my daughter's afghan and now I am trying to finish Zoey's. I had to stop in the middle of them for the summer time. I'll post Zoey's when it is done, I did hers with a Tunisian Crochet Hook. I like it very much, it's like weaving.
Cheers, Cathi

Cathi, your crocheted beadwork sounds awesome...I know a few people who would be interested. If you ever have some to sell, let me know.
As far as the cyst goes, I only just got the news this past week. We have to book the follow-up exam for December and then go from there. Hopefully it's just a cyst! I'm not going to anticipate or worry about it. I've had fibroids most of my life (it was the reason I was given for not being able to have children). They're still there too but I've had them so long I don't know what impact they have on me anymore.
Anyway, I'm just thinking about you and your upcoming operation and praying that all goes well. We HAVE been through a lot together in the past few years, haven't we. We'll see each other through this too. With love!

Hi ladies,
I just came home yesterday from the Hospital. The right ovary I was suppose to have removed 5 years ago did not get 100% removed. This is common when done by laparoscopy. Anyway, it was a cyst the size of a grapefruit that grew from half that ovary. I am relieved it is out and my back is not hurting me anymore either.
Anyway, I wanted to let you all know how it went. I had to spend 5 hours in the recovery room because I was low on potassium and they were trying to administer this to me without burning me too death. That really hurt, but they managed to dilute it to a point where I couldn't feel any pain.
Oh well, hopefully I can take advantage of this time off work, and hopefully I will have the opportunity to spend some time with my sisters here!
I would love to call and talk to some of my sisters. If you want, you can PM me your phone number and I will call.
Thanks to all of you who prayed for me, God heard you! He is good all the time!!
Love and Hugs, Cathi

Glad to know all is done and dusted, Cathi. Did you have a lap procedure again? Nonetheless, remember the mantra: "Do not lift or tug" for the first few weeks in order that you heal well and do not bring about adhesion. Also take plenty of pineapple juice for its healing properties. Rest, rest and more rest.
