Update on Life!

Hello World!

OK I know it has been a while but I have a good excuse....it's called life. Many of you know I am a teacher and I love to make creative crafty projects; what you may not know is I am also completing my Masters in Education. I just started the program last summer and all year I have been doubling up on classes so I can graduate this May. Between work and college I have had very little time to craft. I hope once everything calms down I can begin to create again and share my visions with the world.

Speaking of creating I have an update on my mom. We are still waiting on word from the hospital to know if she qualifies for a program to help pay for the cost of the hospital's part of the surgery bill. Until we get word from them we can't schedule the surgery which just frustrates us all to no end. Every day that we have to wait is one more day she is in pain. Why or why do things happen this way, we have the money for one hand and if she had the surgery today she could be back to painting a little bit in 3 months or so. Ugh! I am not good at waiting but unless someone has a magic wand they can wave I guess we will have to continue to wait. On a good note, my mom received a card the other day from Deborah in Pennsylvania with a donation of $50 to the surgery fund! We were all blown away by this very generous and thoughtful gesture.
I wanted to take a moment and share this wonderful news, this was a nice ray of sunshine in our sometimes gloomy days.

Before I head off to dream world I want to leave you with a creation I made a while back. I love this card because it is cut a little differently and I added charms for a bracelet to accent the card. The colors complement each other so well too :)






Happy Saturday night and if you have a moment click the etsy banner to visit my online store. We are still selling our handmade items to raise money for the rest of my mom's surgery costs. I appreciate all the support.

Night Night,
Kristin
