I cannot believe how long it’s been since I blogged last. Things in my life have been so hectic and eventful that I just can’t go into it all or I’d be typing all day and you’d be reading all night or drop off too sleep in the middle of the whole boring story.
Mainly, I’ve been working on my studio and slowly but surely getting that together. I’ve re-organized it all, with the exception of the small semi-walkin closet. Last week I found a wonderful armoire for just over $100 to build some shelves in and this is where I hope to house 75 % of my sewing stash. I have some much fabric, however, that I doubt I can even fit half of that in the armoire. The remainder of my sewing supplies will fit though. I will be uploading pictures tonight of the shelves and armoire which I am re-working, just so everyone can see how anything can be beautiful with a little paint and glue. LOL.
The reason my studio is taking so long and why I quit counting the days is because, I am the only one who is doing the work and often times I am at the mercy of family, friends and neighbors to help me move the big items just to continue working on one item.
Also, I’ve had the most difficult month in my life with so many health issues cropping up. Currently, I’m being screened for Multiple Sclerosis. Talk about waking someone up. I’m not as nervous as I was a few weeks ago, however, I just was released from the hospital a few days ago and I’m doing well. Let’s just say, I am a survivor and I know I’ll make it through this trying time and come out ahead! Thanks for all the notes I received in the last few weeks I received wondering where I went. Just had a little forced RNR and now, I’m doing much better.
Oh, here is a fun item. Right before I had to go to the hospital, I bought a Sizzix Big Shot. I absolutely love it. I already have the Xyron personal electronic cutting sytem and the Cricut, but there is just something about the texturing one can do with a Big Shot. The other cool thing; it’s pink. When my best friend saw it at our favorite stamping store, she took a picture of it and sent it to me via our mobile phones and she was right! Pink and rhindstones cannot be wrong! Not for this girl.

oooh a pink Big Shot? I didn’t know the were pink, I will have to check it out. The texture stuff sounds cool. I can’t imagine having another tool I love as much as my Cricut but the more the merrier right?!
Please post pics of your new Studio when it is done! I have to learn more about this $100 armoire.
So sorry to hear about the MS and the hospital stay, take care.
