OT; But had to share
My OH My this week just keeps getting better! Sorry this is a bit off topic, but Im so excited I had to share!
Let me back fill the story real quick. My hubby has been laid off for over a year, most would say boooooo, but I am thankful to have him home sometimes. (He was home for my gastric bypass, and was home when I needed my gallbladder removed) Well About a year ago my mother in law bought an embroidery machine, and it sits at our house. Jeff (my hubby) got really involved with it. He started just making little things, embroidering my blank shirts and different things around the house or things for friends. Well back in November we started doing knit winter hats, that went crazy. We now do projects for local fire depts and ambulance squads through out the county. Our work was so good that we picked up a job for the food network! YES, FOOD NETWORK!! It is exciting. Last night we were working on a chef's jacket for someone for the food network, and we were informed we are invited to a food network dinner, free of charge. SWEET! Yea I am excited to go,. I will have to learn to pace myself eating, they are talking about all the food they are going to serve, and I'm just looking at them, going Cool, but thinking ummm I only eat 1 cup of food, or less depending on what it is. HAHAHAHAHA.... but I am excited to think who I can meet, Emeril Lagase? Rachel Ray? Paula Dean? Who is gonna be there?!?
OH yea the BEST part!!! I GET TO GO SHOPPING FOR A NEW DRESS!!!! I am going to wait til a week before the event in case I loose anymore weight, I cant wait. I'm so excited. Life is good, Im glad I enjoy it better now! I wont be so shy to jump up and get my picture taken with everyone, and not hide in the back like I use to!
