Wendsdays first...

... another long week has passed. I can't believe how many illnesses we have in this family at the moment! It's like every cold, every flu, every tiny little piece of chicken pox has came for a visit. Oh, on top of that I am getting really sick from my meds and have horrable redrawls from it at this point. I had to stop taking them cold turkey or what ever it is called.

Have you ever tried sleeping with out getting near your bed because it hurts too much? It's horrable! Every single little touch on my body hurts like crazy, and that is not from my meds. Just a part of one of all fun diagnosises the sweet kind doctors have given me the last year. Living is so fun! And all the loving doctors just send me around. Next time I see one, I will be armed that's for sure. With tons of written information that they have to deal with and try to find something that helps. Good luck doc!

I have however the best cat ever! He hasn't left my side since I started to feel this bad a few days back. He is watching me and when he doesn't think I'm OK, he licks my face to see if I am OK. I know, kind of nasty but he helps me going. LoL What would I do without him and his sweet brother and my family? But hey, it's me and the cats during the days.

Alright, back to why we are here. Cardmaking and crafting. As I am not in that much funktion at the moment have I used a topper/pre coloured image from the Paper Shelter for my Western card. I love this little guy. Isn't he the sweetest? The designer papers are a freebee from some magazine a while ago. Love the muted colours. The tag is from a sweetshirt that a friend bought for one of my boys. I just loved the text on it. Some buttons and a lasso made from some house hold string pulls the card together. I do hope you like this one, I am kind of in love with it myself. LoL

This card is made for our Western challenge over at FFC. I do hope you come and join us or at least check back over the blog to see what the rest of the gals has been up to. All links in my sidebar.

Thanks so much for listening to me today and making life a bit easier. I do hope that I will come out of this mess really soon. I am just so tired right now...

Love n hugs
Marie

Hope you feel better soon. I can't image that touching anything would make my body hurt. Can you sleep in a recliner? Oh my friend will be praying for you.

He is adorable. I can't believe you make such cute creations when you feel so bad.
