Head’s up on Delayed Posts

Hi Everybunny,

Just a quick update for my lack of being here, participating in Ravelry, and sending out destashed packages right away this week. My MIL was admitted Monday into the hospital, and emergency surgery was scheduled for Tuesday morning. While in the recovery room, her body decided to stop breathing and shut down. It seemed she had a stroke – she gave the surgical team coronaries!! She was in the Surgical ICU until Thursday, where she moved to the Step-down ICU side. Last night, we brought her back home to her place.

Obviously I had to ignore a few things – such as work and Ravelry. My husband’s family really needed me. If I was not carrying the destashed yarn with me or had it within easy reach, it will go out today or tomorrow. Sorry about all that waiting! I am popping in a little treat with each package.

Bunny hugs,

    I’m sorry to hear that MIL is having issues. I hope all goes well and there are no set backs. I know what it’s like to have someone you love ill and how scary/frustrating it is because there’s really nothing you can do. Good thoughts and blessings to you and yours.
