So much sadness lately paying my respects

In Jan. my dear friend lost her hubby. He was only 41. They still don't know what happened to him. He was at work when it happened.

Then Penny lost her battle with leukemia. She is a fella crafter. I never met her, but you could tell she was just a bubbly person to be around and so talented and loved by so many.



Another Primmart sister Retha was found dead murdered by her husband. I can't even begin to tell you how much hate I have for that beast. I hope he gets what is coming to him.

Then last but not least my cousin finally met her sould mate. They had only been married 2 yrs and had a set of twins (who just turned 1 in Feb). Well she just lost him due to an anurism. He died on my oldest daughter's bday and was buried on the anniversay of my mom's death. Mar 29.

All 4 of these sweet souls were taken before their time, or before our time we wanted them to have. They were all loved by so many, including me.
RIP my sweet friends.

Another cancer check up and GRADUATED!

Hello out there in blog land! I haven't forgotten you! I just have been insanely busy!
I had another cancer check up, pet scans, ct scans had to drink that nasty stuff, but good news! I am still cancer free! Another bit of good news was that I graduated from going every 4 months to every 6 months!!! That is only TWICE a YEAR!!! Woo hoo!!!
The sad news is our Houston MD Anderson is losing a dr. Yep, mine! She and her hubby (who is also a dr.) are relocating to Pa. I cried 3 times before I left that day. I know I won't ever see her again. She got me through the cancer and now she is leaving me! She told me I didn't need her any more, that others need her in Pa. I guess she is right, but a lil selfish part of me wants to keep her here! I wish her the best of luck. She is awsome!
I have more to post, but going to do a separate post!

My latest obsession!



When I was a teen I remember going to the mall and seeing these cute clay mugs. Well I found some on Ebay one night and my hubby saw them and said he wouldn't mind starting a collection! Well we have 12 or 13 now! I just think they are so full of character! Anyone else remember these?
Here are some pics of the ones I have!

3 dementional Irish Angel doll/painting/art piece! :)


This is piece was inspired from a Prim n Proper pattern, but with my own twist. She is on a canvas and can be hung. I still have some finishing touches to add to her, but couldn't wait to show her off! I am really excited at how she turned out! Do you have any suggestions for the frame? Let me know!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I wanted to pop on and say Happy Valentine's day!
We had plans this morning to go see the movie Valentine's day, but my middle daughter and hubby decided against going. Ya see 2 years ago today I found out that I had cancer. We were out at the mall going to see a movie with our girls and found out the news. Since then my hubby hates Valentine's day. Just too many bad memories. So instead today we did something else! We planted 8 fruit trees! I have been wanting some FOREVER! Still have lots more I would like to get and some nut trees as well! We also got some grape vines, but haven't decided exactly where to put those yet.
Well hope you had a Happy Valentine's day!
Thank you for following me on Blogland!
Until next time!
