Geez, I didn't know they had promised not to sell the big stores like wal mart. i heard they are coming out with an attachemnt or something so you can use the fonts you have on your computer. Now that I wouldn't mind. Wish my lss lady would gt mad throw them on a sale like that. I hadn't even thought of looking around ofr surgery layouts on line. I'll have to do that to see what people are doing. Love the frog jammies. Now that birthday suit photos, I'd be scared to death I'd die later(aren't we all) and my boys would find my pictures.

My daughter bought me these pajamas with capri pants that have frogs all over them. The t-shirt for them has a big embroidered frog and it says "Hop To It!". Since they're WAY tight I thought they'd be fun to use as my shrinking outfit. So, last night she was on a few boards looking at Surgery layouts...and layouts using frogs. She'll be 10 next month but she's my scrapping buddy. We got the Cricut for about $160. The store owner was PO'd at the trick Provo Craft pulled on the LSSs. You can read about it on almost any board. They *promised* they wouldn't sell to the discount stores. Before their orders placed at CHA came in, they were on the shelves at Walmart. After that she vowed to get rid of the Cricuts she ordered and just carry the cartridges. Gee, and they wonder why so many LSSs are going out of business. But, I digress. I saw on a blog that a lady used the same outfit every month for her anniversary date photo. I thought that was a great idea. I told hubby I wanted "birthday suit" photos as well. Just so *I* can totally see the progress. Obviously those will be in a different little album where no one can see them. LOL Have a scrappy day! * Cyndi *

Hi Donna! I'm pre op as well. If my PCP would get off his butt I'd probably be a little farther in the process. lol I decided on the outfit I'm going to take my monthly anniversary picture in. That kind of dictated the colors of my album. lol Kind of off the wall, but that's me! I'll start taking pics the day of surgery. Since I have a digital camera and plan to take my laptop () I can start planning my pages there. If you want to do anything ahead, do some page borders or some page titles. I stink at putting page kits together but that's about the only way I'll feel like scrapping right after surgery. Glad to see you here! * Cyndi *

Well I'm here,now that I kow this board exsists. I am pre op, and planning on doing an album. I am saving everything, like my appointment letter and map, and will get pictures of everywhere I go. Ia m kind of affraid to actually do anything scrappy yet though, till after surgery. So till hen I'll just collect. What do you think?

Hi Vickie! I'm Cyndi and I'm here! lol I've purchased all my fun things for my wls scrapbook. Now all I have to do is have my PCP get off his *$% and get paperwork over to my surgeon. So much for "full support". lol Right now I'm learning how to work that Cricut that hubby bought me before Christmas. We're putting a new floor in my office/scrapbook room so I'll be nice and organized just in time for surgery and work on my scrapbook. Happy Scrappin' to you too! * Cyndi *
