Let’s see … last post was about my surgery. Well, that went well, though I did have to spend the next two weeks with my left arm straight out, and I have become entirely too familiar with one of those squeezy ‘stress relief’-type balls. I’m supposed to squeeze it for five minutes, five times a day, to keep the fistula in condition. Well, at least the surgeon said I have beautiful veins! There is that for a plus! Smooth, clean, elastic, and superficial. which one doesn’t usually think of as a compliment, but he says that when they find veins that close to the surface, it really makes their day. Yay, I’m superficial! %-)
We now have a website where we sell these WONDERFUL acrylic ‘mink’ blankets! They are just gorgeous, and SOOOO toasty warm! Check it out — www.raylynminkblankets.com! If we’re able to get that one going, we’ll try branching out with other products, as well. We are only able to offer about a dozen different blankets at this time, since our supply is still a bit limited, but we’re looking for other suppliers to add to our stock.
Even more news, and this is something we’re all very, VERY excited about: we may be buying a house! By ‘we’, I mean me, my two sisters, and our parents. We’d all be living together (yeah, I know, but it works with us) in a two-bedroom house and a two-bedroom detached apartment on the same property. It’d all be in my kid sister’s name. She’s going crazy with the paperwork and the waiting, but she’s so very excited about the prospect of owning her own home! And of having the whole rest of the family close by (our brother and his family live a mile and a half from this house). Plus, it’s in a lovely little town we’re all quite fond of, full of antique shops, cafes, little restaraunts, and even a museum. But best of all, it’s the home of the Plaza Theatre Company, our (award-winning) community-theater-of-choice! Check them out, at www.plaza-theatre.com! We just ADORE the Plaza, and we volunteer whenever we get the chance … which hasn’t been nearly often enough, since we live rather a long drive away from it right now. But if this all works out and we get the house, we’ll be a mile and a half from them, and they won’t be able to keep us away! Muahahahahaaaa!
Let’s see .. anything else going on in my life right now? Umm … nope, that’s about it. See y’all in another … umm, no. See y’all next time there’s news. Yeah, that works.
