A+E late at night

Anyone who knows me, knows that I have been waiting for an operation on my knee. Well I have had it. I thought all was going well and left my ward for home, Once at home 2 hours later I was back in my local hospitol in A+E waiting to see a surgeon, as my leg would not stop bleeding, but he just patched me up again gave me pain killers and a set on crutches. Have you ever tried to use crutches when you have almost no co-ordination, let me tell you it is not easy. Anyway I am getting used to them now, but if you see me you would laugh I am such a sight.

  

Thank You card

This is a card I made for the lovely people from the caravan Park where I keep my caravan for all the help they have given me with choosing and setting up. I love the place. I made the card using a lovely Whiff of Joy stamp. and coloured her in with my pro markers. The flowers and ribbons are all from Angel Crafts. The gorgeous papers are from K & Co and I have blinged this all up with extra pearls and diamond stickles. I am going to enter this card into the challenge set by I love Pro Markers which is to do a card using pearls
.

Gone But not Forgotten

One Little Word

If you are a follower of the fabulous Ali Edwards you will of heard about One Little Word . This is one word to help to describe your year ahead. I have thought about this so many times whilst following Ali's blog but there has never been a more appropriate  time or descriptive word that describes everything that is going on in my life at the moment and that word for me is CHANGE.

What does change mean? How will it help me in 2011?

Change priorities - Think about my future;

Change my living space - Make my living space more workable;

Become more independent - I can change for me;

Do more exploring - Get out and enjoy life

Concentrate on changing lifestyle habits - Change to more exercise and eating foods that are good for me.

 

Here's to a major change in 2011 - To a new and improved life to live

What do you think I did with these supplies?

Well the pre crop Challenge over at UKS was to make a planner and an exploding box.

The supplies I used came from my abundant stash and the ribbons are from Angel Crafts.
