on the mend

hi there guys,

some days we must acknowledge how thankful we are for the people around us.thanks to my hard working, husband who is helping me keep positive about my recent illness. i am stll fragile in spirit and trying hard to keep up... thanks to my physio and doctor too. my darling mum and brother and numerous work colleagues who have texted, sent flowers and cuddles. thankyou. to my beautiful thomas without whom i would never have got by. to have a son like that is my richest blessing.

just a little note...this week i have been published in a cardmaking magazine here in australia. i am in australian simply cards issue 48. i have an article and a seven page feature. again...i am thankful for that opportunity and am pleased with how my work was displayed.

well i am looking forward to a  few creative days.. i have ideas spinning around my head. so happy creating..tell someone you love them and hug your kids xx

best laid plans!!

hi there bloggers,

sometimes the best laid plans just don't work out. during my lovely holidays I have been struck down with some illness. I have been diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. This is an inflammation of my facial nerve and so I have somewhat the symptoms of a stroke victim and my voice i quite altered. I simply felt kinda wierd one day and then woke up with this. I must say it has been a shock and I am not feeling real gorgeous at the moment. As a result I have not done much crafting. In my heart I want to be busy but my mind and body are just letting me down. Will continue with this space as soon as I can xx
