"Another Day Another Dollar - Another Week Another WOYWW. September is almost through and it will be Christmas before we know it, the days are going just that bit too fast for me. Did a card the other day for a Mingle I was in and put it in the envelope without taking a scan of it to show you. However I was up in the night for an hour or so and began using some of the Laurel Burch cats I had already coloured in to make some cards I wanted to post out to say thank you for some flowers I had had sent.
Starting left we have a postcard from the lovely Tracey Easson which is covering a package she sent to me with a little project for me to do whilst my back is bothering me (to take my mind off things). Won't show you until it is finished.
Then we have the Laurel Burch cards I made at the back plus some of the cats waiting to be put on more cards - plus a mountain of butterflies. Oops, I can see a very dirty water jar there extreme right, how remiss of me. The kitchen roll is one I used to use when I was doing a background in my journal, I used it to roll over the whole page taking some of the ink/paint off to help it dry more quickly. The kitchen roll usually turns out good too - for backgrounds! It's there for when I start doing backgrounds again.
Just my usual stash of things that are always there in the little cubby holes ready for when I need to use them. One of the canisters/containers must have leaked as I found a 'crusty' little mess on my desk a while ago - still don't know which one it was. The shiny thing behind the two cards is my tin for my Gelli Plate. I didn't even think to move it before I took the photo but when I came to crop them i saw my reflection in it. Good job I got to crop the photo and therefore mostly remove it.
Well, that is it for this week folks. Hope you all had a good week and there is another ahead.
Health Update:
Hate to tempt fate and all that but I really do think the chiropractor is helping. I went out on a 'jaunt' last Thursday and apart from a couple of twinges which we soon sorted out with a bit of massage and a hot water bottle (yes we travel everywhere with a hot water bottle and large flask of hot water) I had a relatively pain free day. Friday was a mixed day, but not as bad as it has been. Then the weekend was much the same as Thursday, this time very little pain both days until early evening but again quickly sorted. Monday was a different story - had another of my awful days spent mainly in the chair with a hot water bottle and the occasional ice pack. Occasional because I needed the hot water bottle most of the time.
Yesterday was an ice/heat/rest kind of day but not as bad as it has been. I expect I will get days where I am in pain but at least I am having some life now and then. Sorry about this folks but I feel a bit like sticking two fingers up to the national health people who told me it could not be cured, that chiropractors and the such like were a waste of money. Glad I believed in the power of prayer and the intervention that He was sending me. Thanks for the prayers folks, means a lot.
