Under the Weather

I kind of feel like I have fallen off the face of the earth, no contact with pretty much everyone I know. Am finding my days a little mindless & monotonous. Trying to figure a way out of that cuz it ain't pretty there. Doesn't help that I am at home fighting off a sinus cold... ugg, although I am starting to feel better. Just not good enough to do anything- which leaves me bored and anxious. So here's the top ten things that make my day:

1. advil cold & sinus!!!
2. kleenex with lotion
3. vicks
4. herbal secrets
5. naps
6. my quilt
7. chicken noodle soup
8. peppermint tea
9. cuddles from my cats
10. staying in my pj's all day

I spent my morning out in St. Albert at Karen's baby shower for Kiefer. It was at her brother's house, put on by his fiancee Catherine. She made brunch which was so fabulous! She made blueberry perogies, that's right blueberry perogies! On top you put more blueberries and whip cream, I was quickly convinced that they were amazing!
These are the invites I made for the guests, here's one of the 8 I made before I had to switch my design. I also made a name garland for it. The stars are actually a chipboard album from Michaels' dollar section, it was the perfect background.
The proud mama!

Heidi Swapp is coming to Edmonton at the end of April, that's exciting... the price however is not! $230, too steep for my budget for one day. I am feeling a little sad about it, Heidi here and I won't get to see her..... sigh! (my bottom lip is sticking out)
Good night friends!

Frusterated

I t pains me to type this (almost literally) but I have been given the word form my doctor and chiropractor- tendonitis. I have tendonitis and it is super sucky! I have had flare ups before and always wrote them off as they went away within a day or two tops. I have had my latest for almost 6 days and it seems to be getting worse. What does that mean for me? A few things, writing more then a few sentences is hard and painful, typing is uncomfortable and scrap booking is pretty much a big fat “don’t do”. I made invitations to my girlfriend’s baby shower, I got 8 done and thought I’d have to cut my hand off. I had to modify the design and pushed through the last bunch to get them done. That was yesterday and today I came to tears it is over the top irritated!! I have to miss yoga until it feels better and take it easy at the gym- hard to believe something, just one thing can make it feel like your way off life is coming to a complete halt. It leaves me feeling frustrated. I’m suppose to give it rest until it stops hurting then we can work on prevention- I do not plan on having surgery! I got an ultrasound done on it by my chiropractor and that made it feel so great. I wish I could take the machine home. I go back tonight. Anyways, that’s my pout. No scrapbooking from me- doesn’t mean I can’t go shopping. Hee hee.
