Up until 2 weeks ago when I found out my dad and his wife had died I'd been scrapping..like crazy.. I got 35 pages done in a weeks time the first week of August. I was using all those punchies you guys had made from the punchie swap that Tabitha had and that April donated her share to me! I just wanted to you all to know that even though I've not been around much I was thinking how much I appreciated all the hard work that went into those punchies. So many of you are in my books and don't even know it. So thank you to all of you that participated and April for being so kind. I've had fun using them. I'm hoping to get back into some scrapping now. My dad wouldn't want me moping around like I've been doing. Its just been such a shock. Their deaths were accidental and its been hard to cope.
My son in law Jay also has had his chemo stopped. For those of you who don't all ready know me my 27 year old son in law has cancer. He's married to my oldest daughter who is 23. They have 3 small kids. They have called off another treatment they wanted to go with and are going with a bone marrow transplant hopefully. He has not responded to any of the other treatments. I did get to see them in June as I went up for a few days.
Its been quite a year for me to say the least. I'm trying to get back to the things that keep me sane. I am still cruising your posts when I can. Thank you everyone for all the kind words and prayers that have been sent my way. Each one is appreciated.
