Whats new

2010-04-13T20:50:00.004-05:00

Well I finally got my first tattoo. When it heals I want to get the grandkids names around it. I already have an idea for my second one. They are addictive. And it did not hurt half as much as I thought it was going to.

Lucas was in the hospital. He has been diagnosed with Gastroesophogeal reflux disease, and Bilateral Reflix in his kidneys. He is going to be on medication for a long time. Possibly all of his life. But we are optomistic as he is only 4 months old. Thank you to all who prayed for him.

What a week!!!

2010-04-02T11:09:00.003-05:00

I have had quite a week. On Monday I went to see the surgeon and he said I have to be smoke free for 6 weeks. I was a little upset that he was not happy that I hadn't had a cigarette in 2 days. So when I go back in 6 weeks we are going to schedule the surgery. Because I am going to be smoke free for the rest of my life. I am now a non-smoker. Yea!!!! Then later that afternoomy husband took me to Navarre and we bought me a 2003 100th Anniversary edition Harley Davidson 883 Sportster XLC. I have now had the best Monday of my life. My husband took a week off of work to spend some time at home with his family. We are having a great time together. Either today(Friday) or (Monday) I am getting my first tatoo. I am getting a wolf on my left shoulder. I really want it on my right shoulder but that is the shoulder they are going to be doing surgery on and I don't want to take any chances of them messing it up. At the last Poker Run we did for Neiman Picks Disease I won a 100.00 dollar certificate for a tatoo. I have always wanted on but never wanted to spend the money on one. Now I don't have to. I hope everyone has a beautiful Good Friday and a Great Easter.

Update on what is going on with me.

2010-02-09T11:32:00.002-06:00

Sorry I haven't been on in awhile but I have been having shoulder problems the past few months and they have finally found out what is going on. I have a complete rupture of my rotator cuff. I am finally going to go to see a surgeon on Thursday February 11th, 2010 and hopefully they are going to do something about it. I am in constant pain and the painpills don't seem to help anymore. I can't wait to get back to making things with my cricut. I have seen some wonderful projects and cards on the mb and I have some wonderful ideas that I would love to try but just typing this bothers my shoulder. I am going to try to do a better job on my blog for those of you that follow me. I really appreciate that you do that. I have just been so busy with everything with my home life that my blog has been pushed back to the very end of my things to do. My mother-in-law passed away on January 13th, 2010 in her sleep. She had lung cancer and is now in a better place and where she wants to be. With her loving husband Carmel. So this year just did not start out really great. And hopefully it is going to get better. Thank you all for being faithful to my blog.

Harley Card

2010-01-06T16:26:00.003-06:00

This is a Birthday Card I did for a friend of mine who is a Harley Rider and a member of the Riders Organization from the AmVets. I think this is my favorite card and the best one I have ever done. I got the cut file from someone on the message board but cannot remember who it was. I did however have to redo it to make it smaller to fit the card. Please let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.
