The Waiting Game ~


What do you do while waiting in pre-op for outpatient surgery?  Bind rugs, of course :)  Isn't the gown lovely?  I was told it was designed by some famous German designer . . . lol.


I got the last two little mats bound.  I've been hooking these for the September show in Holly, MI.  I think I hate labeling rugs even more than I hate binding them, and that is next on the agenda.


All is well.  I feel great and the procedure was relatively painless.  I've taken a couple days off work, so hope to get lots done. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

    Both mats are lovely but my fav is the eagle of course. I'm the same way as you and even took a rug to bind while in the waiting room waiting for my grandson to come out of day surgery. Good use of idle time.
