CRAZY WEEK!!!!

This week has been one of ups and downs. Started with my fibromyalgia on the rampage. Then on Tuesday my youngest called and he was rear ended in his Pickup. Doc said off until Monday let the muscles heal. Back in the ER on Thursday because of severe headaches and found out he has a grade 2 concussion. Now he is off work for about 3-6 weeks depending upon how he heals. Truck is totaled as the car went underneath and did the suspension in. He finally has a great job and is happy and this happens. Only thing to do is pray and know that God will do his will.

MOTHER'S DAY

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL

YAHOOOOOO!!!!!

I have reached 51 followers. I need to have a give away. I don't have anything in mind at the moment but will think on it this weekend and post the give away next week. Thank you to all of my followers. I know I don't post very often but life with a 18 month old is crazy at times. He is my grandson.

A friend of mine whom I do computer work for, online, had a stroke on Thursday evening. He is only 65. I have been a bit addled since. I would go to CA if I could but with only 1 car and the kids need to get to college, it just isn't possible. Please keep him and his family in your prayers.

Until later, Keep stitching, Keep smiling and always remember to ENJOY!!!

Just Nan RR- This is what it looked like when I got it.

This is what I put in.

This is what it looks like now.

RAK by Stitcher's Anon

Stitcher's Anon says:

I am now hosting my second RAK for this year, to be given away some time in April -June. I am hosting four in total to repay a few PIFs I have been lucky enough to be chosen for.

You will receive stitchy and/or knitty items according to who wins, as well as some hand made items from me and whatever goodies I decide to add to your parcel!

All YOU have to do is say which your prefer as your main RAK Gift: knitty or stitchy, AND post about this giveaway in a little place somewhere on your blog.
If you are a follower you will be entered twice. And that is all because more will just confuse me. I am easily confused.
