It is finally summer I hope so. I have been real busy today. I thought I better clean my house. I done that the first thing this morning. I was through cleaning by noon. I havent been doing anything excited this past week. A good friend of mine passed away with lung cancer. I went to the funeral home and also took food to her daughters house and stayed and prepare the food and clean up the kitchen. I will sure miss my friend. She was a dear friend and a hard working woman of 74 years old.

I did get Colleens tip in pages done for her book. They turned out fairly good as I am just learning to collage. I done the pages in Vintage women and musicians. I have several more trades to do now. I am going to try cabinet cards next. Hope I am able to do these. I have been looking at some pictures of cabinet cards.

Well tomorrow will be the first of May. Just a month and a half before Beth and I leave to go see our dear friend Jane in Newburgh N.Y. I am really looking forward to seeing her and New York city. June the 17th is the day we fly out to Newburgh. It will be here before we realize it.

I am looking forward to putting some more flowers out and more hanging baskets when Beth gets done in her yard. She will come up and help me put out some flowers. My dh has the planters all ready with gravel and we will sit pots around in the beds. It is so much easier for us to do this as we arent able to pull weeds and the plastic under the gravels keeps the weeds out of the gravel beds on each side of the deck steps. I need about four more hanging baskets for my deck and also some pots with flowers to sit around on the deck. I hope Beth gets through with her planting today as she is off from work today. Maybe we can do some of mine this coming week. We have to go to our DRI stamping work shop this saturday so I guess it will be Saturday week.

Well just thought I post a little bit and try to load some pictures in here of my tip in pages.
Have a good day.

Hope you haven't forgotten me dear friends

Hi all, yes I finally decided I had to change over to Google as I couldn't get into my blog. I know it has been ages since I have posted in here. I have been so busy that I just didn't take the time to change over. But here I am trying to post what all has gone on since I last posted.

I had another birthday in February it was a wonderful birthday. I received over 50 cards from all of my friends in all of the different clubs that I belong to. My two sisters came out to celebrate our birthdays as we all was borne in February. As I once told you we are called The Golden Girls, but the oldest golden girl ended up in the ER. She was very dizzy and heart rate was 170. She is doing fine now. Our celebration was cut short as she stayed in the hospital for 3 days. No we didnt have any Bloody Marys LOL. My friends in ATC Group made me a beautiful shipping tag book for my birthday as they called me The Shipping Tag Queen LOL.

March has been a very cold and rainy days. The only good days were the days that Beth and I went to Tunica and I know that she told this in her blog also. But I just had to say it again I hit the Jackpot and won $5000.00. This will be spent for our trip to see Jane in New York our dear friend. We are leaving June 17 and will be back June 23. Jane has planned so much for us to do while we are there. We are going into New York city for two days and will see Phanton of the Opera and sight see. I am really looking forward to our trip to New York with Beth. We always have such a good time on our trips. Beth is my wonderful daughter and friend also.

I had an awful scare with my husband night before last. His blood sugar dropped down and he had a seigue and had to call 911. The EMTS worked with him and gave him sugar through IV and by the time he had arrived at ER he was to himself. Beth was there for me and my neighbors also came and help me. Dont know what I would do without my Beth and my Neighbors. No I want leave him alone as I am afraid his blood sugar will drop again as his kidneys are going downhill fast due to his dibetic condition. I am afraid that he will have to go on the kidney machine forgot the term for it LOL. His son is coming from Oklahoma to stay with him while I am going to NY. His son is so good to come and help us out. He came and got his Dad and took him back to Oklahoma to spend two weeks with him and his brother back in March. I dont know what we would do without his son and Beth.

Well I guess this just about tells all that has happened in my life for past couple of months. Just the same ole same ole. Thank goodness it has turned warm here and Beth and I went to plant nursey yesterday and I bought 6 hanging baskets full of flowerw to hang on my deck. Beth spent the night with me last night and we sone some art projects and she went home this morning to work in her yard and put all her flowers out in flower beds. She has a beautiful yard full of flowers and yes she has a green thumb. She always comes every spring and does my flower beds as I am not able to do all of the planting. This old back and leg want let me, I use to do it all and I so enjojed it so much and miss not being able to dig in the dirt and put out flowers. It is awful to hit the Golden Years I think they should leave the G off of Golden and have Olden Years LOL.

Goodnight all and hope I havent bored you too much. See you later and will try to post some pictures later.
