I practically LIVED in my recliner for almost three weeks! LOL!
(I guess the fact that I was allergic to the pain meds didn't help much!)

That just sounds so horrific, I can't imagine the pain you must have been in.
I am really not sure what to do for Josh for the first 2 days he is home, I have no idea how he is going to rest and sleep??? I am quite nervous about it.
I told him yesterday, we should just load up our sectional and bring it to the Goodwill... My thought is that I could rent a carpet cleaner and do a deep clean in the living room. We could bring up our camping chairs from the basement and use those for a week (they'd be much more comfortable than our sectional, that's for sure)... Then the furniture store could reimburse us the $30 we paid to get rid of it - and we won't have to worry about them taking it or not.
Josh's thought was... Then I have to clean out the back of my truck.
So, I am not sure what we will decide to do... but I really don't want to be stuck with the sectional for 10 weeks while Josh is on restriction - we just don't have the room.
I just got back from WDW earlier today and I wanted to let you know, I got soooooo many compliments on my Ultimate bag! It was perfect for Disney, just the right amount of room and pockets! I sent quite a few people to Etsy to look for you (except the Disney employees that asked
)
Stephanie... I read this last night, and it just made my day!
Thank you so much for coming to tell me!
I would love to hear all about your trip and I would love to see some pictures too - if you don't mind posting them!!! I am so glad that you love your UPB and the size/pockets worked well for you!
Sorry to hear about Josh's surgery, hoping for a speedy recovery and until them he will be in my prayers. My mom has had four surgerys on her back, all four of them have been ruptured disks. First happened when I was a teenager and her disk ruptured while driving her car, than about 10 years ago a blood spinner hit her in the back of the neck and ruptured three disks. She has had three fusions with this one, the last one being about 5 years ago.
Thank you. Ouch on your mom - that sounds awful!
[I am glad to hear that you started packing, I've been thinking of starting that myself. I even just got 4 new shirts yesterday for just $20. I looked for a donald one, but I didn't see any that I felt were D worthy.
Awesome that you've started packing!!! And awesome about the new shirts! ROFL about finding a Donald one... I was counting yesterday, and I am pretty sure that once I finish the ones I plan to make - I should have almost enough for every day while we are there. LOL
[So at this point (if they are not booked up by the time I get the money) my choices are POR or POFQ. What do you think? Should I just go for POQF so we could be neighbors?
If thats the case we will definatly have to exchange #'s so we can bug each other while we are there.
You can do whatever you are comfy with... I'd be happy to exchange #s.
We don't plan on spending too much time at the resort - we are rope drop to close the park type gals. LOL
Nope my machine isn't worth repairing it was a cheap Kenmore I bought 5 years ago and for the guy to look at it is $40 then whatever it costs to repair it which I think is the motor.
I have finally convinced DH to let me buy the embroidery machine I want since mine kicked the bucket.
I wil be praying everything goes smoothly with Josh's surgery. I hope you are able to repair your sofa as well.
That's a bummer that your machine can't be fixed... but awesome that your DH is letting you get the emboidery machine you want.... Which one are you getting?
Thank you everyone for your well wishes about Josh's surgery... We are a bit nervous about it (especially the girls), but I am confident in the surgical team - the hospital he is having it done at is #1 in the nation for spinal cord injuries - so I feel confident.
Victoria's Goofy dress is going well - I got a lot accomplished last night after work. I wasn't planning on working on it at all, but Josh offered to make dinner last night, so I snuck up to my sewing room for a few hours.
I also have to run over to the furniture store today, the delivery paper didn't get signed while I was there, and in order for them to deliver it, I need to sign this annoying paper (grrr...) so that will be at least 2 hours out of my day. I am kind of hoping that Josh will go with me and we can look at just recliners, I am so nervous because that was the main reason we were furniture shopping in the first place, and we didn't get one.
While I am over there, I am going to swing into JoAnn's and grab the lime green thread that I didn't realize I was almost out of (story of my life). My goal is to finish the Goofy dress today, and hopefully cut out the Goofy skirt. I have just enough orange dot fabric to do that...
D~
It makes me excited to finally receive ours
