Sorry For No Posts

I kinda feel behind in posting this past week.

On Monday I was running around OKC with my friend Linda. We went to Graphics Solution Group where she likes to get vinyl. I got some glitter iron-on vinyl for my football t-shirts for this year and picked up some transfer tape. Linda picked up some vinyl for making templates for her new hobby of glass etching with her sandblaster. For lunch we went to our favorite mexican place, Teds! After lunch we hit Tuesday Morning, thinking we were going to get some of that good priced cardstock only to find out it was in the multi-color packs and we didn't buy any. I did get some frames to alter for the Craft Show we will be doing in December. We also hit Hobby Lobby while we were there, neither of us getting too much. I know for sure she was wanting some vinyl but other than that I think she was just wanting to get out of the house for awhile. It sure was hot while we were in OKC and  my feet had started to swell by the end of the day.

Although I have been on vacation this week I did go to the school on Tuesday for enrollment and since the kids weren't coming in very fast I just typed up an information sheet for them to fill out and turn into the director. That evening I was feeling a bit off and my legs and ankles were swollen really bad, to the point I had CANKLES! I do not have cankles and for a fat person I actually have very nice ankles and thighs. When I started having a really hard heart beat I decided to go to the ER since I knew that was a sign of congestive heart failure. Luckily my heart did slow down and they did an x-ray of my chest, an EKG and some blood work. Luckily everything turned out okay and the doctor said I needed to cut back on the stress and I have to start taking a diuretic pill. My blood pressure was really high for me but it went back to normal not long after I was in the ER. I was feeling fine by the time I got back home.

My sister came on Wednesday to spend a few days with me. She usually tries to make it down for one visit in the summer and since the summer was almost over it was time for her to get her butt down here! LOL We had a great visit while she was here.

So now here it is Saturday and I only have today and tomorrow of time of left and I feel like I have gotten nothing accomplished! I plan on working on the house that Carmen and I started while she was here but so far that has been slow going. I did get some things put away that was scattered on my craft table so guess it's time to buckle down and do some crafting.

But first I think I need to schedule some posts of files I have done, if I can find them! With school starting I will be super busy and likely won't have time to make new files but then again that is one way I relax so maybe I will have to do that when I get home from work instead or working on paperwork!

  1. Take care of yourself! We would be lost without you. Although I don't comment a whole lot and I really don't know why, I guess I think you can read minds, but I do check your blog almost everyday just to see what you are up to. Thanks for all your inspirations and I've said it before if you are ever in Tulsa, lunch is on me.
