Another Long poorly night...

I need a HUG.

Sending every poorly person out there one too.

Here I am again sitting here feeling sorry for myself,

this time though I am staying off the tea.

Hot blackcurrant and a warm shawl to keep me going.

This is one of the worst nights to be ill,

with British summer time ending I have already seen 2am this morning.

Having to suffer in silence while every one else sleeps for an extra hour is driving me mad.
I should be happy that both my children are asleep,

we have had so many disturbed nights.

Oh well back to bed to try and sleep some more I think...

I wonder what today will bring ?

Another busy day....

Another busy day for me, I am so pleased that I am selling my jewellery.

Below is a complete black bracelet as ordered by a forum friend.

Below is a matching black beaded handbag charm.

This is only the second one I have ever made.
A different forum friend also asked for stud fastening earrings.
She has got the green pair below and the next pair of red ones.

My final pair made for today were another order.

I am not even sure if they are sold yet, she may not even like these!

I really love the colour purple.

Another fan of the stud fastenings.... I didn't know these would be so popular.

I will have to make another order for the studs soon.

Is it Possible....?

I was up for some time this morning, between cups of tea....
and a thought struck me...

Is it possible to meet your sole mate even if you're married to someone else?

I have had the wonderful feeling of meeting a friend for the first time a few weeks ago....

We connected like we knew each other before...

Had things been different in my life I think this friend of mine was my sole mate!

Things happen and time goes by before you realise the impact a person has on your life,

now its too late to take steps to change things, this person is no longer around.

Can not believe it....

Can you believe it?

Its 5am in the morning....

This stupid sore throat and cough have woken me,

now I can not go back to sleep.

I am not normally one to be up this early in the morning...

Unless I am poorly, well it looks like this blooming sore throat is

winning... I just wish I knew when my body would fight back.

This is one of the joys of having children,

they love to share all germs with you!

All 4 of us in this family are at some stage of illness right now,

it looks like I am the worst off, everyone else is fast asleep.
I think I will have another cup of tea...

then try bed again!

The picture I posted on Tuesday....

The picture I posted on Tuesday was framed by a very lovely forum friend of mine...

The forum link : http://forum.cardmakingandpapercraft.com/

Peanutnut is a wizz at taking pictures and making them into something special.

She put a lovely frame around the photo and used a picture of a rose I had given her before.

I printed this photo out to use as a card for my friend to thank them for

inviting us to the party.

To see some of my friends great work follow this link.

Had a crafty time.

The black bracelet is for my Mum, she requested one for Christmas,

she has it made really,having 2 daughters into making bracelets etc....

Never have to buy one again.

Below are my first ever earrings made on stud fastenings!

I made these as a promise to a forum friend, Lazykay.

I think they have worked out ok.Below is my first ever necklace set, with matching earrings.

These are for my neighbour's daughter.

I am not so sure about the chain for the necklace.

I will have to try to find something a little finer.

I have also made a card with a great image on it.... will show you later.

Hospital appointment...

I finally had my appointment to be discharged by the hospital yesterday, I was able to ask a few questions about what I had been told etc... also put a couple of fears of mine to rest.

I had been told I had a weak back, the surgeon told me that its normal wear and tear on my spine, that my disc's are not as full of fluid like they should be and that my natural curve to my spine was no longer there, meaning that my spine is straight... but quite stable.

I also asked about having further children, should ever it happen! I was told I would be fine ( yet had been told not to before!) I would just suffer more though out pregnancy with back ache. That was a weight off my mind, as I thought it was the end of having children for me.... so should it ever happen my back will be fine!

I also mentioned the numbness in my right foot.... He was concerned that I had lost so much feeling and has asked to see me in 4 months time, which is fine by me. Should I get offered surgery to help it though I do not think I would.... though time will tell. I have become used to my foot not feeling right.... so maybe in 4 months time it will not be such an issue for me.

So in the end it was good news, the whole reason for the surgery was to stop the sciatic pain.... it did that instantly, like being switched off!
