Friday!

It's Friday!  Woo hoo!  I can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving!  Gosh, it will be here in a few days.  I've been in a funk of some sort - I think it's knowing this will be my very first Thanksgiving without the girls...and thank the Lord my sister Sandy is able to fly home from L.A.  She finished her last chemo about 5-6 weeks ago.  She had a checkup and thank you, Father, she was cancer free!  She was battling Stage 2 ovarian cancer.  She is a tower of grace and strength.  She'll be home for Thanksgiving with Mom and the girls and I wont be there.  It makes me sad that I won't be there but so very thankful she is able to be there. 
I did manage to finish up two cards last night - let me know what you think!
Oh, and I forgot to show y'all the one I had finished up before:


Oh, I need to go throw chips on the smoker - we're smoking a brisket for tomorrow!  Yum yum!
Have a good one!
Blessings,

I'm back

Well, I have decided to give this another go.  I thought by making regular posts, I can document (for myself, if for no one else) my new journey - moving half way across the country to a place where I don't really know anyone or know where anything is.  My husband and I moved to his home state and we recently purchased a new home that I absolutely love.  Since I'm now working remotely from home, it has been somewhat isolating - since I don't have the advantages of leaving home to travel - at least to a job every day - allowing me to get more acclimated to the area and, maybe more importantly, meet new people.
I'm trying to get my craft room organized and unpacked.  I can't wait until it is all laid out and there is a specific place for all my goodies!  There are still quite a few boxes upstairs in my room and even more disheartening - more boxes to be moved from the storage house.  It will get done - I'm just not as patient as I should be!
I will post some of my new creations as I have been trying to get back in the swing of things and creating as all my precious goodies had been boxed up for months and months!!
Well, that's it for tonight's post.
Blessings,
Glynda
