Boxes, Balloons, and Flowers

Hello Fellow crafty friends!

I know it's been some time but life just kind of filled my days.

I have been crafting as you can see by the photos. I made a couple

of the box cards for friends and they showed them to other friends

which then created a frenzy of everyone wanting box cards that I

even took a break from Etsy.

All in all I made about thirty box cards that I forgot to take

pictures of some of them which is ok because I just might

have driven all of you crazy with all the box cards...LOL....

Life got a little crazy along with me having all those orders.

My boxer Shelby ended up with bone spurs on her hip and we

had to see the vet off and on and finally made a decision to

put her through surgery.

We have had to keep her resting which is not easy. It has

been a lot of work especially because the vet didn't prescribe

pain meds in hopes that the discomfort would keep her down.

That didn't work out to well.

Her leg got swollen because she wanted to be up following

my husband and her pal Diesel around, so more trips to the vet.

Along with all of that I am helping out a friend that had gone

in for routine surgery and the Doctor made an error which my

friend almost lost her life. After three months in the hospital she

finally got to go home and I have become her in -home care provider

three days a week. I also put together a fund raising yard sale for my

friend since she has no income. Many of her friends did different

fund raising sales (bake sales, Tamale sales). We will continue to

do things to raise funds for her until she has jumped through all

the states hoops to have some type of income come in.

Days, weeks, and months have just flown past.

Mothers Day came and my kids gave me the Brother Scan N Cut

and I didn't even have a chance to write about it. I did mention

it on my facebook page but that was a quick post. Lately all

I can do is quick. Quick check facebook, quick check e-mail for

what might be important, quick go buy groceries because I have

to be over there in an hour. Quick, Quick, Quick.

My life has been full but I am glad to be alive and breathing.

I hope that you are all doing well so until my next post

Have A Splendid Day!!!!!!!!!
