I'M BACK!!!

Gosh! I can hardly believe that it has been a week and a half since I posted last....the days have flown by.

As an update....my mother is doing great! No side affects or anything from her recent vertigo. In fact, she went RVing with my cousin and her husband over Memorial Day weekend.

Another "weird" medical thing happened to our son, Andy. About a week ago he was sitting at the dining room table doing homework when, out of the blue, he started groaning from abdominal pain. Within about 5-10 minutes he was on the floor in horrible pain. My husband took him to the emergency room and the doctor immediately thought it was appendicitis. They gave him morphine for the pain and then proceeded to give him a blood test, which came back normal, and then he had an abdominal CT scan, which also came out normal. The fact that both his blood work and insides were all normal was great.....but nothing could explain his pain. So, around 2 a.m. he came home. The next day we took him to see his pediatrician (Andy is 12), but again, he checked out totally normal. So....we have no idea what or where his pain came from, but it is gone. Kinda weird!

We also had my husband's brother and wife out for 4 days from Colorado......it is always great to spend time with them. While they were out we went to see the new "Star Trek" movie!!! I LOVE anything Star Trek!!!! GREAT movie even if you are not a Trekkie. Also, Donna and I took in some much needed retail therapy!!

During my blog absence I had a card that I had entered into a SU contest (no, I didn't win) posted on the demonstrator website's "Stampers' Showcase" on May 17th. Since I can't post a picture of the actual card, I took a picture of the website....here's my card......
It was for a "Bleach It" contest....I used bleaching for the cupcakes and the cupcake stand. I check out the "Stampers' Showcase" everyday......kinda fun to see your own work there. This is actually my second card to be featured.....I had another one posted sometime around Christmas.

Well, I still feel WAY BEHIND in the posting department.....my mind is spinning with all the stuff that I want to post. Hopefully, all the weird things are over for the summer and I can get back into my nice little (boring) routine!!

Until next time,
Find some time for stamping!!!
Blessings, Cindy

Cindy,

Hey, glad to see you are back and that everyone is feeling better. How are the kittens? Post an updated photo of them, I am dying to see how they've grown. I'm the one that commented once before about my cat looking like your cat. Hopefully you remember. Congrats about your card being on the website. Till next time..

Blessings,

Lisa A.

I check your blog everyday so it's nice to see you back. Glad your son is ok - sometimes children present with these weird things but better to be safe than sorry.

Your card is lovely & an achievement to get it featured on the SU site as they must get hundreds of submissions - I don't know anything about 'bleaching' what is it?
