I used to love Christmas but now it's more of a burden to me! Never getting the right gift, (well I do but... that's a whole other story!!!) Can we cancel it? I really miss the spirit of Christmas that used to be in the air. I did however have a nice little get together Christmas day, that was the highlight of my Christmas festivities. I enjoyed seeing my niece, nephews their families and all my cousins. Ray and I were talking and we do need to do something different next year. So we don't have our Christmas spirit doused out with bad attitudes and greedy ppl. Any suggestions? I'm up for any suggestion. I am thinking about donating to the needy in their names, that way they can't return my gifts! That would take care of the problem and give to the less fortunate! Well, I am really trying to quit stressing about it. I am now just out after the solutions instead of stressing over the problems.
My daughter has been sick throwing up all day! Both Ray and I have been nauseated too. I was more sick last night and Ray is really sick tonight. Amanda is pitiful, I'm worried about her dehydrating. Till next time....

Merry Christmas!

Blog candy is where the owner of the blog offers prizes just for advertising their blogs, often you have to create a card or something or just post a link from your blog to theirs and from theirs to yours. This gal has an awesome prize package just for spreading the word, she has 600 followers!!!! That's awesome!!! Go check her out Blog Candy Site

I hate feeling like crud!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Formerly known as: Queen of Bling) — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:41:00 +0000

I have been feeling so bad I can't hardly stand it. I've been trying to get out of this rut... Please keep me in your prayers. I just don't even feel right. It's had to describe. I have such a painful chest it's around the whole backside and sides. So, just say a prayer. I am checking out a new pcp dr this next week, I am hoping he can help me with the pain aspect. I don't want to live in a fog with all the pain meds. I pray for the wisdom he needs to find the answers. AMEN.

New Digi Stamps!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Formerly known as: Queen of Bling) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 01:20:00 +0000

I've never used 'digi-stamps' but I have....does that make sense. I have drawn my own creations and scanned and printed them as well as copied pics with the scanner and made my own paper piecings etc. Now this is a whole new genre of "stamping" if you will. I am sold on it. Krystal has an awesome blog candy giveaway happening on her blog; Digi Kitty. She is a cyber pal of mine and she is getting into this and she has some real cuties on her blog. Go check them out for a chance to win some stuff and a little suprise giveaway too! Digi Kitty/Kristal's site

I was in the hospital once this month but I did get a little get away in and went to see my cousin by Detroit! Now let's see if I can make it past Thanksgiving & stay well! I have a birthday coming up and I am thinking about putting some Blog Candy together... I am going through some stuff and I just hit an awesome find at one of my favorite stores. So, keep checking in I will probably post it this week sometime, since my Birthday is the following week!!! P.S.
