I Got My Hat!!!! Steve strikes yet again.
« on: April 11, 2009, 03:22:16 pm »


Thank you, it arrived just as I was meditating (ruminating) about life (feeling sorry for myself) on the sofa.   I leapt up and ran around like it was Christmas.  Hope the picture does the hat justice--it's perfect.

Awesome Marci!
 
I think that hat has some healing properties knitted into it too!

I like the fact that the picture gets bigger every time I look at it!

Nice to see that big smile. :)

Very funny.  I was just trying to re-size it but I'm not yet a photobucket master.   ;D

I especially like the the way the lights shine in the background to show off your nice hat and nice smile :)
Nice job, Steve.

Marci ~

Congratulations on your lovely new hat!  'Steve the Milliner' does nice work and the chapeau looks good on you.  Thanks for posting the photo and sharing your elation with us.  :)

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

I'm not - and I think you look beautiful, too!

BTW, Steve is working overtime again.  Anne Marie posted in another thread (the one about the symposium) that she just received a purple hat compliments of Steve.

I don't know how he does it  :o
