Surprise Vacation ??????????????

Surprise Vacation ??????????????

I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Don"t know if you would call this a vacation, but it was a surprise

I had a doctor appointment Thursday morning but ended up in the ER on Wednesday, was admitted and

came home yesterday.  Although someone waited on me for everything I can't really consider it a vacation.  Anyway I am home will be completely off my feet for 5 to 6 weeks so I hope to use this time to do some serious crafting.

Hope to catch up visiting all of your blogs...............

Happy Birthday Kirsty

Kirsty was one of  my first blog buddys,,,shortly after we became friends she started the CCCB.  I was one of her designers until frequent trips to the hospital forced me to step down so I wouldn't keep interupting her schdule.  I miss all of the team a lot...........anyway Kirsty has done an amazing job with the CCCB and her new project which has taken off like crazy Pixie Dust Paperie 

Kirsty have a great birthday and I am truely glad we became blog buddies.....................

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIRSTY
