Image
I don't have a new card to post today, but I've had so much happen at work in the last couple of days, I just have to share. I wanted to post a picture of some kind, so here is a pic of Hunter & Jenn. My Grandson, who is the light of my life, and his Mom, my oldest daughter. Here is Jenn, Me & Cristine, my youngest daughter!! As you may know, I used to work in the Emergency Department, but I have been a full time Telephone Triage Nurse since the end of October. (I've actually done Triage for the last 10 yers with the ED) Yesterday was a very trying day. One of my early morning callers said "F*** You, shut up, I don't have to listen to you." (He doesn't, but he called for advice) He demanded to know what was wrong with him, he wanted to speak to a doctor. He ended up hanging up on me. Then an intoxicated pt. called stated he wanted to die. He was hoping to do it by not eating for 4 days, smoking and drinking alcohol. I suggested that

A Free Digi Print!! & the Dentist!!!

I was surfing the blogs yesterday. I can't remember who's blog I saw this on, but she had this image posted, so I went to the site and I got this Free digi here. Isn't she cute??? I printed it on Gina K Pure Luxury White , colored with Prismacolor markers,added Stickles , and heart Gems . I also used the SU circle & Scallop punch and my paper piercer . Paper colors: SU Lovely Lilac & Pixie Pink . I hope all of my fellow bloggers on the East Coast are getting shoveled out!! We also got snow here in Wisconsin, but only about 5". We have a lot of wind and blowing snow. Yesterday I went to the dentist for a tooth problem. Cold things caused me pain!! Well, it turns out that I need a root canal next week. The bad thing is, it will be the 2nd root canal through a crown!!! I just had the crown put on a few months ago. Anyway, once my anesthetic wore off yesterday, I had the worst dental pain ever!!! The dentist drilled it to deaden the pain and put anesthetic in

Color Challenge88 & another Valentine

Image
I got this stamp (Shirley's2Girls) in October when my Mom and I went to the Chicago burbs for the weekend. We found a little stamping store out in the western burbs, but unfortunately, I can't remember the town or the shop name!! (I do have CRS disease!!) I used it today with SCS Color Challenge88 . We were to use SU colors: Bordering Blue, Certainly Celery & Elegant Eggplant. I stamped in Memento Black on Gina K Pure Luxury White cardstock. Also used Basic Grey "Sugar Rush" dp. I used Prismacolor pencils, markers & Gamsol. Her hat and coat are really PURPLE, but they look BLUE in the pic! I added stickles to her hat, flocked her cuff, and added Primas, ribbon and a brad. Here is a close up of her hat and cuff. It's hard to see the flocking. I made this Valentine last week. Another Loads of Love and Accessories. Prismacolor markers and pencils, stickles, Creative Memories corner punch. Memento Black & Melon Mambo Ink, Real Red, Gina K P
