sisterly love
i love my sister. even if she's stupid and didn't let me win. (see below)
i should've won.
...but i suppose she's a big girl and it's time for her to fight her own battles...and hopefully for part of which i'll be there beside her. ;)

sibling rivalry
in the spirit of NOT letting my sister beat me. looks like i'm following suit and getting a needle biopsy tomorrow of my thyroid gland.
felt some odd pressure going on at the base of my throat last week, went in for a fast check-up on Thursday, to have my doctor exclaim, "oh! we need to get you in for an ultra sound right away!" ;) not the most comforting words, but i had figured as much. unfortunately the ultra sound shows a couple of things that we need to check out....and check it out in the form of a needle biopsy.
definitely my bachi for laughing at my sister's anxiety ridden reaction to her needle biopsy last week....and as i told my dad. we all know that i'm the one one in the family with the medical issues, so when Cec said she had to have a biopsy, apparently my body figured, 'heck no. if she's gonna have one, we're gonna have one too! and we're gonna make the lump at least twice her size!'
:) so here we go. at least it was a good excuse for a 4 day weekend. (furlough friday) biopsy is 9:30 mon morning....test results for both of us back tuesday...think good vibes!

unconditional love
there's nothing like the unconditional love from a dog...
hoku literally jumps up and down (on her front paws) when rye and i go over to his parents. we were making flower arrangement for Shelly's shower last night, and so hoku had to go to the bedroom, but stood at the door looking out at me waiting for attention. whenever i turned around this is what she looked like. ;)

don't laugh...
okay, don't laugh. i realize this is just a straight stitch. but seriously they're selling something like this, but not even cute at 2 baby boutiques here for $13 for one or $22 for 2 and look, mine is cute!!!
And you can't see, but I did a zig zag stitch to make it cuter. Hee hee hee....I can SEW!!!
(umm....it's a burping cloth in case you were kind of confused-just sewed a cute swatch onto a $2 trifold)
