Finally Back - Sort of...

Well, I am on the mend but still so tired and now the baby is sick too! GRRR. One member of the family has been sick with either a cough, fever, cold or throwing up for a MONTH! I have stepped a foot out of the house exactly TWICE in the entire month of February and once was to go to the ER! I am not exaggerating in the slightest! I am so over this, I wish I was over being sick! So I pulled up a card I made for my stash ages ago that I sent to the Children's Hospital instead of a Valentine. Nothing fancy, hope you like it.
triple floral best wishes
Good layout for small stamps!

Enjoy, Rebecca

Still sick!

Not only am I still sick with this nasty sore throat but now I have
weird lights dancing in front of my eyes. I've been listening to
music; can't really craft or read too many emails at once. Just got
home from over 7 hours in ER to make sure it wasn't something serious
related to my lupus or something neurological (brain related). It
probably is an atypical (unusual set of symptoms) migraine. No pain? I
guess that is way atypical!! So I see an opthamologist tomorrow to
verify it but really they just exclude everything else until that is
the only thing left. I promise I will do the TT10 card eventually; at
this rate, in time for TT11! Thanks for all the well wishes, they
really perk me up. I've had enough of the lights now so enough staring
at a screen. Bye.

Sorry for no new posts!

For about a month, our family has been sick. We have gone through
colds, coughs, sore throats and tummy upsets. One after the other we
have been passing the germs around. This weekend was yet another of my
turns for the sore throat! I get a lot if them anyway because of my
lupus; if I am stressed or tired, instant sore throat, but this one is
a doozy and a cough besides.
Sorry, I don't even have the energy to pull up an old photo to show
you. I am posting via email from my iPhone again. I sure hope we are
all better soon. I don't even want to make anything and that
practically never happens! Hope you are well and be sure to visit
again or take a few minutes to visit my previous work!

ETA: I replaced the photo with a decent one and I added the recipe that got deleted some strange way!

I'm trying something new-posting by email. I couldn't sleep and since I wanted to get a card done for yet another PTI challenge, I decided to get up and do it. I would have waited for later but I'll probably be too busy to get it done in time. I am sleepy now so rather than photographing the card and getting out my laptop to post, hopefully this will work OK. I will replace this photo and fix up the post later.

Enjoy, Rebecca
