another quick update

Hello all and thank you for your continued thoughts for me. Today I started feeling a little bit better. Since my last update I was in and out of the hospital again. The doctor said I would be having these relapses until the right insulin would help me adapt. My sugar has been out of whack...the highest I had it the last time was 477. Then it dropped to 38. They're trying to find the right dose to maintain it. I've lost weight...35 pounds to be exact. I'm suppose to be in bed but I can't count on anyone to help me...so I try to get up just enough to make the house livable. This is when I wish I was rich to get some help...lol.

Anywho...I managed to get a card done for the Paper Makeup Stamps peeks and couldn't show it because 1. I've been in bed without any energy and then 2. LV lost my camera. She had been taking it to school to take pictures with her friends since she's graduating from middle school soon and well...she lost it... Which leads me to apologize...

Katie and girls at Paper Makeup Stamps...I am so sorry I came to fail you all. I honestly wish I didn't have this crap going on because the last thing I wanna feel like is a failure...and that's what I feel like right now. I know I've been told to rest and that life comes first...but being part of a design team is part of my life...and I do apologize.

I think that's about it for now. I need to send stuff out and what not so I'll take advantage of this burst of energy. Thanks to you all for your continued support.

About the blog candy...I'll have LV update tonight who the winner is so I can send that out too. I do apologize for that too...

Lots of love!!!

An update

I'm so sorry I hadn't been around. I was in the hospital and then when I came home I had to rest. My doctor that's attending to me says I was on deaths door. That's some scary stuff to hear... But thanks to prayers and faith and someone who doesn't want me yet...here I am with a new outlook on life. Still a bit tired and what not but I'm headed there. Just wanted to update you guys... I don't want you to think I went running to the hills again...lol. Turns out I was not taking very good care of herself in the past...I always left me last. Well now look...here I am now with a slew of problems and suffering from my consequences. I am now a diabetic, with bad cholesterol levels, high blood pressure...and that's on top of the other crap I suffer from. Being in the hospital though and being told I was hanging on by a very thin thread...that made me look at things in a new perspective. From now on I'm gonna be putting myself first.

Alright guys...when I have a bit more energy I'll update again. In the meanwhiles... ALL OF YOU...PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES!!!

I'm sorry

Hi this is LV here. I messed up and didn't post about my mom when she asked me to. I only contacted her design teams and forgot to update her readers. My mom had to be taken to the emergency room on Saturday night because she had a diabetic episode. I don't know what that means or really what it is, but I know now it was not good as she was in the hospital until today. We just brought her home and the doctor told her she needs rest. While she was there for her diabetes she also had a bad reaction to an anxiety attack. She told me to please forgive her and that she will back up soon to update. She just wanted me to let everyone know that she's home and that as soon as she's OK to be up and doing things that she'll get to each and everyone of you. If you bought from her she will teach me how to do all of that to send off stuff. I don't know how to answer her private messages on Split Coast so if anyone from there had pm'd her she will get back to you soon.

I think that's about it, I know if I missed something she'll ask me to come back and update. Just like my mom right?

Thank you all!

LV

Makeup 4 The Weekend #28

Hey all and Happy Friday! I'm so ready for the weekend!

As you may already know...it's Friday and that means it's time for a little challenge over at Paper Makeup Stamps blog! Today's challenge is brought to us by Dawn B.! The challenge is to make an altered notebook. I didn't have a notebook per-say...but I did have notepads. I altered it to take with me in my purse for when I get ideas...lately I've been getting some neat ideas...but then when I get home to jot it down...I forget them! Oh well...lol!

So here is my notepad made to also fit SC281. I used my non-inked set Buggy Sayings! You can find it at the Paper Makeup Stamps store here! Also used are these new AMAZING Viva Pearl Pens given to me by 2 AMAZING Ho friends...Kelli Jo and Kate! Kate sells them in her store...so if you want some...give her a holler! Here is her blog. THANK YOU MY DEAR FRIENDS...from the bottom of my heart.

Don't forget that Paper makeup Stamps is having a DESIGN TEAM CALL!!! Check out this post for info! Once again...GOOD LUCK!!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #46

Hello peeps and it's Tuesday and that means it's time for another Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge! This week Melissa has thrown another curve with a recipe challenge! I love it when she throws that curve ball! LOL! This weeks recipe is to make a card with your favorite color combo AND make it sparkle...like Edward...lol!

My favorite color combo just happens to be brown and pink! Any shades of pinks and brows are just beautiful to me! So here is my card! I used the image "With a cherry on top" from this weeks sponsor Busy Beauties Boutique. Sentiment is from Paper Makeup Stamps which you can find here. It's from the set called Sprinkles and Cherries.

Well that's all for me! Go ahead and check out what the rest of the team has cooked up for you! Also...hope to see you play along!
