Boo hoo and Blossom

Oh man, the last week has been a blur! On Monday last week I woke up running a mild temp and felt completely “flu-ish”- You know that wonderful snot and tight chest with headache right? YUCK! lol, and of course “Kim” being the stubborn ass she is, takes asprin for the temp and hopes it’s just going to go away- LOL.  I didn’t want to worry Waynie to take off work to take me to the docs for just a sniffle -- mmmmmmmmm, by Wednesday when my dear son finally arrived with my car, I was walking around in a bit of a daze. Temps sky high and completely blocked up that I couldn’t hear out my left ear. Well Wayne and Nathan had a fit and I was at the doc’s first thing on Thursday morning. Well I had my car back – lol.

YOUCH- did I get it from the doc too, I had an ear-drum near bursting and had infected just about everything in my body due to – SINUS! lol, The stuff I live with here and just ignored as it’s a daily thing- KWIM? DANG, I didn’t know it could make me feel this miz! I’m on the mend tho and have enough tablets to sink a freaking ship- and it sure makes my head spin!(not that it needs help doing that really- lol)

We went away for the weekend so the boys could play golf ;-). I wouldn’t let them cancel it – I mean being sick here or there wouldn’t make a difference. I spent a wonderful weekend reading and spending time with the boys in the afternoon. We even went to a local “Shabeen” (Traditional Tavern/Bar) so they could have a local traditional beer. We also went on a “tour” of a crocodile sanctuary and both got a little pee-ed with me as I kept stopping to take photo’s- BWHAHAHA. It was a good weekend, even through the sweats ;-)

Nathan left this morning to go back home and I’m missing him BADLY already. ARRGH-been “boo-hoo-ing” on and off today but he starts his second year University middle of Feb and had to go and register and get his books sorted out now. He did so well last year and landed up getting 4 distinctions! One for the “summer school” class he had to take this month too- lol. I just hope it keeps going so well this year - well he knows he will have his mom on his back if he doesn’t- hahahaha. :-P

I got to play yesterday morning while Nathan was busy with my dear friend and fellow Designer Ruth Melody’s new kit called BLOSSOM.

Thank you for making my weekend such an enjoyable one! I have spent the weekend surfing the web and I found your website and had fun downloading some of your freebies. Thank you for the goodies that you have shared! I appreciate your generosity! Without your willingness to share your talents and your layouts, there would be very little external stimuli to make us stop, look and think and that process makes us more creative!

I have downloaded a lot of wonderful kits in the past few months and didn't really understand how important Thank Yous are so I’m trying to be sure to stop and take the time to post a thank you. Sometimes life gets in the way and you start a download and walk away and when you sit down, you start at the next step and don’t loop back around for that thank you to the artist that had shared so generously with you. I know that it happens a lot with me with dial-up. Sometimes those big files take FOREVER to download and then I forget what I was doing! That happens a lot lately…. ! :-)

A heartfelt Thank You for you!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
