A halloween freebie ... and I HATE migraines!

Home from work today and piled into bed in warm jammies after a warm shower, feeling like a dishrag after a night of migraine, medication (which makes the after-migraine suck that much more, but what can you do?), and is it allergies or a cold? My migraines always sneak up in the middle of the night. What's up with that sh*t?

I ... FEEL ... LIKE ... CRAP!!!

But BEFORE I felt like crap, I designed a lil Halloween freebie for you all ... please send some pics if you decide to do something with it.

Til next time ...

Long time no see ... and hopefully a freebie ...

Oh my goodness! Did you all think I'd disappeared ... dropped right off the face of the earth?? To be honest, I've been keeping up with all of you behind the scenes. It's been a busy summer filled with gardening, time in the greenhouse (an absolute JOY), canning, and a few new yard projects ...

And now it's FALL already! Yikes!!!

I've been playing a bit with a cross stitch program the last few evenings and would like to share a little freebie with you ... hope you enjoy ...

(Edited to say IT WORKED! I wasn't quite sure it would ...)

Til next time ...

The day the world changed ...

Downtime in Thailand ...

We were relieved to receive a middle of the night phone call from Quinn. It's so hard having your child on the other side of the world, especially in these uncertain times. He's working hard at his training in Thailand and making time for a little fun too ...

Quinn is in the white tee shirt. While on their "ride", they saw a cobra and a crocodile ... pretty fun stuff for a kid from the cornfields ...

A very special thank you ...

to all my friends and loved ones that have e-mailed about my son, Quinn, who is stationed in Okinawa, Japan. First let me say that he is fine and on a temp duty assignment in Thailand. The island of Okinawa wasn't affected by the tsunami that has so devastated the mainland. Our hearts and prayers go out to the Japanese people.
