Sandra Evertson

Oh my gosh, I have been so lucky to have Sandra comment not once but four times on my blog. If you don't know who she is go here http://sandraevertson.blogspot.com/
she has her own line of rubber stamps does major things for stampington and is just a fantastic artist. I have several of her stamps and could always use more. She has this new line where you have parts of bodies to make awesome characters. Oh so onto what I was going to say. I am so excited that Sandra finds my art cool..lol
I appreciate everyone's comments and love it that everyone likes my work. But when you have an idol like Sandra post......... well she is almost like Paula Deen... you know?????? and well ya'll know how I love my Paula.

It is all over

Well, we are back and he did fantastic. Took eight stitches and a row of whip stitches to close the area that they took. You can see where it is missing and you can see the stitches but he is doing well. Tucked him into bed and gave him a ton of pain pills and he is doing okay. he actually was able to eat some mashed potatoes and gravy as well as some butter noodles. It was sort of funny because as he was coming out of the anesthesia he was just a talking and hiccupping at the same time. Side effects I guess. Bless his heart he was so sweet and sad at the same time.

well, back to baby my baby
thanks for everyones prayers and well wishes. Now let's pray that the tests come back that they got everything!!!!!!!! If they got it all that means they won't have to take half of his tongue and he will not have to go through with radiation. He says he feels that they did and he just feels good about it... I pray he is right....


So, for all the smokers out there.................... Stop now!!!! You don't want to find yourself in his place. He has stopped thank god and has done so fantastic for almost two months. This time I know he can do it....

Today is the day

At 2p.m. Big Daddy will be having major surgery. They will be removing part of his tongue today to hopefully prevent Tongue Cancer. Yes, you read right.... TONGUE CANCER!!!!
We are both scared to death. I just ask that if you have a moment to say a pray for BD that the results will be good. The first section they took out the results were not good. We are hoping they get everything this time.
Thanks all

A Self Portrait

In getting with the Halloween spirit I thought I would do a self portrait. I looked in the mirror and this is what I saw. Well, in my mind this is what I saw. Enjoy

Sunday

This weekend was my first weekend off in two months from work. I spent it doing absolutely nothing but watching t.v. and doing some art. I need this weekend so bad I never realized just how exhausted I was until I could relax for a minute. Back to the grind stone tomorrow and not another weekend off until the end of August. But in September it will be two weeks of no t.v., no traffic, no phone calls, just a cabin: a boat: the man I love and water. Canada it will not be soon enough until we get there.

Later today or Thursday

A brand new canvas is coming. This one is Halloween themed I hope you like her so stay tuned oh and not one vintage piece on it anywhere. lol

Thought for today

You know I am so lucky to have the friends and family that I have
My wonderful husband Big Daddy who took an entire day out of his hectic schedule to make me an amazing card for our anniversary. Who loves me unconditionally and I love him with every breath I have in my body.
My sister Toni who really isn't my blood sister but has turned out to be the closest thing to a sister I have ever had. There are no games she doesn't try to out do me or one up me like my real sister. She also loves me undonditionally and puts up with my flaws just like Big Daddy
Then there are my online friends that I have made
Erica who made me an amazing skinny veronica she just made my day
