Penny angel




The button to get to my ebay is also off to the top right hand side of this page if for some reason the link does not work and you would like to check it out.

She is my original copyrighted design .I have been having so much fun playing with this pattern and making them . I have more to post later on. After not putting anything on ebay for a couple years now I am a bit rusty so took me a couple hours to get it all figured out again lol :) Hope to have some things on etsy soon as well I will post when I get more things listed.

Hugs ,Renae

Hello my dear sweet friends , yes you may snag the image :) I know I said a while back I would be busy posting again but.. life has it's twists and turns as we all know .Mine just doesn't seem to ever want to calm down thus the saying on the image above which I am learning all to well to do... take things one day at a time and just live threw it the best you can .Our life here has taken a rather large turn yet again this past month. My husband came down with the flu right before labor day his first day of a weeks vacation from work the flu turned into strep which he was having treated with penicillin which we now know he cannot have . That landed him in the hospital with a week in the hospital which started the 8th of September and another ten day stretch which we just got back home on Wednesday night with home health care coming in and me learning how to do his IV meds yesterday. It is a long story short version of it is he has a bacteria that has traveled first from his strep throat to his knee causing it to be septic which took two surgeries tons of test the first visit to the hospital he was sent home to recover on lots of antibiotics .Only to have things get much worse in the days after that so back to hospital for 10 days and tons of tests he now has the bacteria in the bones of his spine .This is all very difficult to explain at this point he has many things going on with him that have the team of doctors working with him a bit baffled at this point and if the antibiotics do not work which we have to wait at least 6-8 weeks to find out we will then have to travel elsewhere to hopefully get some awnsers to all of this . So just a very short version of what has been going on around here. I will be listing things soon on ebay and etsy now that it is up to me to try to keep things going around here .Just a tad stressed right now but all will be fine I have faith in that after all what else can one do :) I will post when possible but will be spending most of my time working and tending to hubby and the kids .Have a wonderful week-end Big Hugs

lil Americana Snowman Ornie ......




Hello everyone ,I have been busy trying to figure out this pattern thing . This is my first pattern I have done to share and I am not sure what I am doing yet lol .So I am giving it out as a freebie. You can all test it out for me : ) I am not sure how good my instructions are ,I find it hard to explain how I do things and wonder if it makes since to others at times . I have the link in the side bar so just click on the picture there and it should take you to the file to download or print it .I hope so anyway ,if you have any problems getting to it just leave a comment and let me know and I will respond as soon as I can . I did a set of these lil guys a couple years ago and sold them on eBay .As I was going through some things over the week-end I came across the pattern and figured hey I am going to give this a try .And many hours and frustrations later here we go : ) But hey only one way to learn something and that is to try right ....And I have promised to do so for a couple years now ....so it was due time I sat my bum down and started to figure it out . If this does ok there will be others to follow .This lil guy has a couple partners that went with him so they might make an appearance soon . Ok I am off to make hubby and the kiddo's some supper I will chat at you all soon .Oh by the way I set up an account on face book as well it is a work in progress but the link is in the sidebar as well :) Have a good evening

Hugs

Good morning everyone, I worked on these images yesterday for some room sprays I was making. Thought I would share them with you .Just click on each one to bring it up larger in a new window, right click and save :) I was thinking that first one would be cute on a handmade mothers day card or whatever .




Just a couple pictures of the roomsprays I was working on. An idea for a gift you can make that special someone .I added a wing with a bit of glitter to the images and stamped a pretty design on the outside edge of the image .used mod podge to attach everything .



Tomorrow we are headed to my grandparents estate auction. I have to say it is going to be a hard day I think .A day that will end a chapter in my life ,and that last page will be hard to close as I walk away tomorrow when it is over . At one time in life this was family that was so close to us when my mom was alive anyway , so many memories with all of them and so much time spent with them growing up . Then it all disappeared pretty much after her funeral . After so many harsh words were spoken to my father about my mom's care and such. There were family members that refused to believe she had cancer was dieing and made things so much worse then they had to be. I fully understand what Dad had to put up with back then after hubby got sick last fall and i dealt with it from some of his family. Mom's doctor took them into a room tried to explain it all but they would not listen to reason and were very harsh to my father . And now years later after Grams passed away a couple years ago . My brothers and I being the ones to receive Mom's portion of the will.... well lets just say I have an aunt and uncle that the only word i could use to explain them both would be greed and heartless way to much to expalin . Do I love them both yes very much so, only want the best for them in life ,but the pain they cause to so many family members is beyond what I could explain.When I myself do not understand them myself. So I am not looking forward to tomorrow ...But need to be there for myself see if I can get a few of Grams and Gramps things to put away for my kiddo's .And a few treasures I remember from a wonderful childhood full of memories with all of them .
*
As for my Auntie Bev...Thank-you for remembering us kids knowing we are family and treating us as family . Mom is smiling down on you and so proud of you I know she is ,as is Grams :)You are such a kind hearted wonderful lady always know that and never let anyone tell you otherwise Bless your heart .
*
Sunday is my nieces graduation so we will be going to that then probably home to do some yard work . I pretty much try to ignore Mothers day it is a day my heart aches .But yet a day that I am so proud to be the mom of four beautiful kids ,I am so blessed to have in my life they are my heart .
*
I would like to tell all the Mom's out there Happy Mothers day !!!! a bit early I will not be on the computer much over the week-end busy busy busy the next few days . I hope you all have a wonderful week-end !!!!!
