Best appointment ever

I cannot believe what a difference time of day makes. I've heard it a million times, that having your appointment early in the morning is so much better because you don't have to wait for all the appts that went late during the day. My appointment was at 8:15 and I got there right on time. I was out the door by 8:45. That is impressive and all, but what really got me was how much nicer everyone was!! That alone is worth having our appointment early on in the day. I can honestly say I have no complaints about my appointment today.

PLUS I only gained 2 lbs. :) Thats less than a lb a week and I am very happy with that. Too bad my doctor was gone and I couldn't brag in his face. Oh wait - I'm not doing this for him? Thats right, its to keep my child healthy... how  quickly we get off track.

Tonight we are watching Avatar. Obviously we've heard good things but we are going in with no expectations. We'll see.

Here's a little peak of what else has been accomplished at Sarah's art and crafts store:


The fitted sheet experiment worked! I really truly did make these myself. And they fit the mattress. Only thing I'd change is that I would have less elastic so they would be a bit more snug. Nothing I can't fix next time! (And yes there has to be a next time... I already have the fabric for the green fitted sheet)

Latest thing that I have been working on is making tissue paper flowers for the May Day baskets I'll be distributing throughout the  neighborhood. 40 in all - call me crazy ambitious! I have time on Saturday but really just hope that it doesn't take the entire day. Mike sounds like he will be ambitious this weekend and we might be able to get a ton done. We can only hope?

Wait did I not tell you ALL the things we got done last weekend??
  • Finally got rid of  borrowed  a dresser to my sister which now leaves room for one of the many dressers upstairs to move to a more permanent home
  • Bought a new washer (review of that to come in the near future)
  • Picked out carpet for our rug in the baby's room
  • Bought a ceiling light and a matching mini lamp for the baby's room
  • Bought a ceiling light/fan for our room
That is progress people! Another weekend like that could really get us in a good place... Lets all just take a moment in prayer... :)

I better pay attention to this movie. Its looking weirder and weirder each minute.

    so impressed with the sheets, wonder how much you saved by making them? Never thought of making a fitted sheet in my whole life!
    AND CONGRATULATIONS on weight "mainenance".
    Love,
    Mom
