Hooded Towels

For Christmas I made a hooded towel for my nephew. My mom loved it so much she wanted another one to give to his mom. (She keeps the first one at her house for when he's there, almost every weekend.)

So I made a 2nd one (dark blue). While talking to Mom one day she mentioned that her Sister-In-Law would like to know how to do them so she could make them for 2 of her nieces she keeps alot too. So I said I'd make them for her as a surprise. So last night I finished them up.. remember I am the queen of procrastination ;)

They are really hard to photograph without models.. but this gives you an idea.

The directions can be found at ThreadStop

Finally.. moving again

Today I got word that my letter has finally made its way back from transcription and is now on its way to the insurance company.
Please keep us in your prayers as we await the next news of if I'm approved or not.
This should take about 6 to 10 days... so they say.

Still waiting...

Waiting is hard.. I'm not having fun waiting.
My friend Kym is going thru the exact same thing.
Her insurance told her it was covered and when the Dr's office tried to get it approved she was denied also. So she's waiting on approval for the Gastric Bypass as well.

Say a prayer for our patience and for a quick approval. :) Please.

On some good news side.. Chris and I now have 3 new fishes we added to our tank.

Sorry the picture isn't better.. the camera flash and glass don't mix too well. ;)

Test results and Insurance

Yesterday's testing went well. Never had blood drawn directly from an artery before. That's a bit painful after they take the needle out. But I have to say both nurse's were very good and gentle. (the first nurse couldn't get it it so brought in a second.) I have a tiny tiny little bruise.
The pulmonary doc cleared me for surgery :) YEAH!!!

And this morning I received a call from Yevette, she has the file back from Dr. Strickland and he's approved the change to the bypass and now Mindy has to change the code and send it off to be typed up. They should have that back in a day or two and then its off to the insurance yet again. Yevette said that could take around 10 days. So we wait ..... again.

But so far so good. :)
God Bless you all and thank you for your continued prayers.
Hugs,
Dawn

I saw this over on Dawn's Stamping Thoughts and just had to share it on my blog too.

This is so touching and inspirational . Thank you Dawn for sharing it.
