So much can happen...




How quickly things change.........
I was doing this post below on Tuesday when my brother rang, my mum had a fall in the garden and tripped over the hose...so after spending three hours at the Narromine Hospital she was transfered to Dubbo Hospital, 4 more hours, x-rays, specialist...she had snapped off the ball in her hip, surgery, at that point they were not sure about the socket as this may have to be replaced as well...next day....surgery was to be at 9am postponed then 1pm postponed 2.30 postponed finally 4.30 she left her room....my mum has always been very active...so she was lucky only a half hip replacement was done...all well long road ahead but she is positive....


Remember tomorrow is the big day for the sign up of OPAM 2010.....

A big thanks to everyone for all the lovely comments I have received in regards to OPAM 2010......so nice to read so many of you are keen to sign up.....remember Friday 8th Jan that is the day...
Another finish this is a Cinderberry Stitches pattern..."Christmas Mice"....
it is warming up here and the clouds are coming in, looks like we might get a storm....have a great day everyone....
