Bad-Bad Blogger!!!!

OMG! I can't believe it has been MONTHS since I last blogged! Life has been hectic & crazy but still, MONTHS?

First off, my oldest daughter Kirstey got her driver's license about 5 weeks ago and I am having a hard time of dealing with it (she isn't of course). My Hubbeast decided to just let her have free reign with the car & coming and going so we have had some major problems with disagreements (Him and I along with her and I). We have already had to take the car twice due to her not following rules.

My friend April had her triplets on April 1st. They were 10 weeks early and weighed in at: Ashton 4lbs. 3 oz, Bryce 3 lbs. 9 1/2 oz, and Little Chase at 3 lbs. 9 oz. They finally made it out of the NICU into the Transitional Care Nursery but it will still be a few more weeks until they can come home. I sent three crocheted round ripple afghans for them along with about a dozen knit blankets and some tiny outfits for April to give to the NICU for other babies. The little burial set I sent actually went to a live baby that weighed around 1.25 lbs. She was the sole-survivor from a set of triplet girls born at 25 weeks. April told me how the Mother's face lit up when she saw her little baby dressed in the bonnet, gown & booties and they actually fit. Made me feel good to know that my charity crafting does help.

Also, I have been having some health issues. I actually had a pregnancy scare a few weeks ago (even though I had a tubal ligation almost 15 years ago). Turned out that I have severe PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). So, now I have to follow a strict diet & take Metformin ( a diabetic medication)even though I am not diabetic. Hopefully it will balance my hormones and aid me in loosing the 70 lbs I have gain in the last 4 years (a symptom of PCOS is drastic weight gain in a short time frame).
I also found out that my white cell count is high. My doctor is worried about leukemia so now I have to go to an Oncologist on Monday for further testing. I'm not worried though, I feel fine & there are scores of other reasons that my white cell count could be high.

I will post later with some pics of the triplets and of my latest knit/crochet projects!
