before I go…
This will most likely be my last post this week: I am going into surgery on Thursday afternoon. I’m not worried about the actual procedure; I’m confident in my doctor. But I don’t like the idea that I’m going to be cut into, that I’m going to have subcutaneous stitches, that I’ll be in pain, that I will have to be in bed for three weeks….. Yikes! Get a grip, Leslie
Anywhoo, James will be there. That’s all that matters. And my parents are coming into town. How sweet!
So, I will leave you all with a layout I did this weekend. Karen is challenging us scrapbookers to make a layout about ourselves, so I am submitting this one! But I’m not really happy with it. I got lazy at the end and kinda threw it together (not a method that I would recommend) My sister picked up my copy of Elsie Flannigan’s challenge book and told me to do # 42 -create a stylish photo frame. This is a picture of me on my honeymoon, which was and will be the only time you will find me in a bathing suit!
You’ll never guess what I am listening to now: The Rosslyn Chapel Motet! This man named Thomas Mitchell deciphered an ancient pattern on the walls of Rosslyn Chapel and discovered that it made a motet! So cool!
Well, folks. I am signing off for the next few days. Wish me a speedy recovery!
Leslie you’d never guess that you did this in a hurry. It looks great. Love the little collage in the corner of the photo.
Hope all goes well with your surgery. The good news is that by the time you read this it will probably all be over and you’ll be on the recovery trail. Take care of yourself.
hey lil sis.. everything will be fine and you will prolly be up and about before you know it!
Good luck with the surgery and I hope you’re feeling better soon!
Don’t know what surgery you’re having, but whatever you do, TAKE the 3 weeks in bed – believe me, you’ll need it. I had major surgery in January…I’m just NOW starting to feel normal again. The subcutaneous stitches are the best…really! I’ve had them three times and they work so well!
Take care, take it easy, and take advantage of any help you can get!!!
Good luck, Les! I know you’ll recover in a flash!
Take care Leslie. Hope all goes well.
Pretty layout too!
i hope all goes well with your surgery! take care of yourself & rest as much as they tell you to
surgery? hope all is well with you and i’m sure the surgery itself will go well too! plus, that lo is adorable and youc an totlaly scrap on bed rest! as long as you can sit up, : )
I wish you a speedy recovery, but also a thorough one. I will be thinking of you! Love ya!
I had no idea tht you were having surgery!! I hope you have the speediest of recoveries!!! We’ll all be thinking of ya!
Hope your surgery went well!!

What an awesome page – I love all the little details! Great photo, too.
Good luck with the surgery …
Fun layout, great colours and I love all the embellishments.
I hope the surgery went well and that you’re not in too much pain.
Such a interesting layout, I love the “serious” photo on the back.
Love the colour combination in your layout. Hope your recovery is going well.
Great page! Like how you made a “wave” with the paper on the side:) Good stuff!
Found you through Karen – your layout is great – I love the buttons and wave – hope you are on the mend – surgery is not fun! Take care.
Very cool layout – hope you are on the mend now
Love the colors of your layout. Hope that you are doing well post-surgery.
By this time I hope that you are at home and recovering and not in too much pain. I think your layout really turned out nicely. Everything on it focuses on your photo.
