I'm still having trouble accepting my diagnosis.
I've been told I'll need radiation and chemo and probably, surgery (it's my breast). I honestly know so little about cancer that it all sounds so confusing.
My whole family is in New York and I live in Florida. Tonight I have to call and talk to my sister. Just dreading making her sad. She'll help me work out how to let our mother and my daughters know. I honestly hate having to do that to the people I love. My husband is wonderful, though, and he's the most supportive and helpful anyone can be.
I'm getting a new sewing machine
I'm so excited!
The one I have is starting to get tired, we are solvent - in fact, we just did our taxes, and apparently, you pay less on retirement income - so I decided it was time to upgrade. I looked around and decided on a Pfaff. New machines has some jazzy features, like more lights and more stitches, but the Pfaff has IDT, meaning it has even feed built right in. I'm getting the QE 4.2, which has 10" to the right of the presser foot. That'll make working a a big quilt much easier.
It should come in this week, and I have a tank top and cardigan in blue sweater knit for my first project. Can't wait!
