Time really flys by!

Just another note of thanks to each of you who are so loyal and sweet to leave me messages. I am still improving, and each day is better. I went to the Dr. on the 15th. He said things were ok except I had really high blood pressure, so he put me on some meds for that. I go back to him in 2 months.

We are having all the kids over to the house on Friday for Christmas with them, and then Ray and I are going to Priest Lake till Monday. I will as promised post pictures when we get back.

I was going to post some pictures of some cards and rosettes I made but it seems a little late to do it now.

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, be blessed my sweet friends. Know also how much I appreciate every one of you. Each of you have touched my life in a very special way:)  I can hardly imagine my life without my blog friends in it.  Every word you leave me lifts my heart and brightens my day!

Big  big  big  hugs,  Pam

I'm getting Better each day!

Just a note to all my dear and caring friends. I am doing better each day. I'm still pretty sore but that too is getting better. The hardest thing right now is I am not supposed to raise my left arm above my head, try putting your hair in a ponytail without raising your arms, not easy!!  My loving hubby has been doing my hair for me, he is a wonderful guy. Whatever I need he is always there for me. I go on Thursday for my follow up visit to make sure the pacemaker is doing what it is supposed to be doing. But I can tell you it's doing something right because I feel a lot more normal.

We are spending Christmas out of town at a beautiful lake called Priest Lake. It's in Idaho, and probably one of the most beautiful places on earth. We went there for Valentines Day last year, but decided to go for Christmas this year. It's kinda expensive but so worth it! We rent their biggest cabin on the lake, with a fireplace and a view that just doesn't end. When we get back I'll post some pictures.

I have made some rosettes about 60 of them, thank you Susan!!!, for the grand kids to make ornaments with. I was pretty worn out after that. But I think they will be so pretty on their trees.

Well I am getting tired so I will close with this,  Thank you every one of you that send me words of encouragement, and care. I love every one of you, and you all mean the world to me.

Big, big hugs, Pam

I have been in the hospital!

Hi guys!! 

I am so sorry I haven't done my drawing yet or even let you all know what has gone on.  As I told you all in my last post (Dec. 1)  I had some DR. appointments.

Well I was put in the hospital Thursday after noon. With a heart problem! Apparently it was not working!! It came as a kick in the head! I was really afraid, not of dying, but of the unknown. God was so good though, He got me some really good heart doctors. They were really great, and gave me peace about what was going on.
Friday morning they put in a pacemaker. I must say other than being very very sore, I am felling a bit better. I am sure you all understand it may be a few more days before I pick a winner for my giveaway.

Please know all my dear friends I am going to be good. I can't use my left arm much for about 6 weeks, so I don't know how much crafting I will be doing, but hey I am alive though!!!  Any and all prayers are greatly appreciated.  I will be back as soon as I can with a winner, I promise:))

Big, big hugs, Pam

News on My Giveaway

Anyway it will not be to long, and I will notify one of you.  I hope everyone of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Have a great rest of your week, it's almost over and the week-end will be here, yeah!

Big big hugs, Pam

Come and Celebrate My Birthday with ME:))

My birthday is Nov. 14th.  I want to have a birthday celebration with all of my wonderful, sweet, beautiful friends!  For my birthday celebration this year, I am going to give a present  to one of  YOU!

Each one of you are such a big part of my life now.  A celebration would not be complete without you all in it with me.

I bought my favorite Christmas cartridge. This has some of the cutest cuts on it.  I love every one of them. It took me the whole year last year to get this. No one had it. Then one day I saw it on Walmart.com  It was just luck I think. I ordered it and by the time I received it Christmas was over!  But I have it this year, Yeah!!!  I  decided that this was what I wanted to give to one of you for my birthday.  So I ordered it in August, so I would have it here for one of you!

I hope you will like this one as much as I do. Here it is:

Here's the back of the cartridge that shows the cute cuts!

 

   Here are the guidelines for one of you to receive my birthday present for you.

• You must be a follower.  Leave me a comment letting me know that you are. Be sure to leave a way to contact you.
• You can have another entry by posting the giveaway on your sidebar. Come back and leave another comment telling me you did that.
• You can have a third entry by telling others about my celebration in a blog post on your blog. Then come and leave another comment telling me you did that.
• Finally you can have a forth entry by grabbing my button and posting it on your blog. Come back and leave a comment telling me you did that.  If you already have my button , just leave a comment letting me know.  

That's it.  I hope you all come and join me for my Birthday. I am going to let this run the whole month, so it will close at midnight Nov. 30/ 2011.  I will get a lucky winner from random.org between Dec. 1- Dec. 4, and post the winner by Dec. 5.   Because postage is so high I must limit the winner to the US. But I want all of my friends from other countries to know how much I adore them. Everyone of you are very special to me.

My biggest hugs to each and every one of you,  Pam

Another Halloween card!

This is a new Halloween card. I have done a few this past week. Some are just cute, A couple I did with skulls, I don't think I like them though. I am not a person who likes spooky stuff. I don't watch gore, or spooky stuff on TV, or videos. So these cards are way out of my comfort zone. I do find the cute ones cute however. I also think even cards with witches and ghosts and even ghouls can be cute too.

Anyway here is the card and as usual I will post the challenges at the end of this post. Which I probably will do tomorrow, we are moving things into our new room today and tomorrow. But I thought I would put up the card now.  I hope you all like it.

Please know how grateful I am to each and everyone of you that entered my giveaway. I will be doing random.org in a day or so, to find out which of my wonderful friends have won!!

So again here's the card.

Some pictures of Kyce!

My dear friend Lisa @A Mermaid's Crafts,  has asked to see some new pictures of my brand new grandson Kyce. There are other pictures from when he was born on my blog. These are just a couple from this last week. He has really grown! He is over 9 lbs. He is a wonderful baby. He is starting to really smile now, and is just so darn sweet. He loves to cuddle, and be real close.  Well enough of  Nanny's rantings, here are his pictures especially for Lisa.

Isn't he awesome!!!!!
