I am so thankful today


I have had a very terrible day that is hard to explain. My daughter's birthday is tomorrow and we have always went on a pre-school shopping along with her birthday shopping. I did everything right to try to get myself stoked up and feel well. Well, I got up, got my meds and treatments all in me, mind you this is at least and hour and 1/2 process. So, We're off...so we thought. I don't know how but I got lost and went in a circle.....Twice! I started feeling rotten, my sugar was crazy and I finally get where we wanted to be and couldn't do it. We ended up rushing long enough for me to buy her a hoodie and a shirt I sat in the car and ended up going into the store and thank God she was checking out! I felt like crap and was actually fearful that we were not going to make it home. I was near tears, trying not to let my feelings show. I may HAVE to really be done driving. It's not worth passing out. I cannot believe that things have come down to this. I would have never thought I would end up like this. I just believe there is going to be some beautiful reward someday. I pray for strength, guidance and understanding in all of this. "Lord hear my prayer"
Without seeming unthankful, here is my peace in the trying day and I owe SO MUCH to a gal from AMR; Patti from PATTI'S PASSIONS; whom another girl sent her my way Jackie, I appreciate you both so much. God has a special place for you girls. HONESTLY> I am sharing my little heaven here on earth. To some who do not 'get' my passion for scrapbooking, crafts cardmaking and such. I haven't been able to do layouts and such but I have made a couple cards and now haven't done much of that. BUT these magnolia stamps and some other images these ladies have sent me have really brought me such joy to not only me but my daughter's lives. I had just picked up some cheapie 'general' watercolor pencils and I wake up all hrs of the day and night and sit color and cut these images. I love them. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MY HEAVEN ON EARTH. Bless you all for the images and I just want you to know how thankful I am...here are a few pieces of my heaven...
