Surgery

Since this blog is about the whole family, and not just my kids, I've decided to share the most exciting thing thats going on with me. I have decided to get a breast reduction by next summer! I am sooooo excited about it and I wish it could happen tomorrow. Unfortunately my insurance wont cover it and the surgery is roughly about $6,000. The good (and bad) news is that I have about 6 months to save the money (thats $1,000 every month)!
I am planning on making cakes, babysitting, selling nursing covers and other baby items, refinishing older pieces of furniture and selling those, selling my wedding dress :-( , basically anything I can do to earn the money! I am giving up scrapbooking, eating out, getting my hair done, new clothes- eveything I can reasonably give up in order save for it. We'll see how it goes.... So I will be keeping a tracker on the right side of the page showing the money I have saved. Wish me luck!

Way to go girl. You can save it if you try. Well I am sure you will have lots of clients to amke cakes for because they are so pretty and all of your projects you have sewed are gorgeous.
