Let's Try This AGAIN!!

Goodness Gracious....I'm trying to start up this blog AGAIN, and hoping to take part in contests and blog hops!  My few posts for the past couple of years have been nothing but doom and gloom, so I'm hoping that the autumnal season will bring creative breezes along with peace, luck and happiness.

I'm going to get this off my shoulders now, and hopefully not bring it up again.  2012 continues to bring more life realignment than ever.  I'm still wallowing in the stress of my inherited hoarded house due to the passing of my mom.  The stress along with putting myself on the bottom rung of the priority ladder caused me to 'code' twice at home recently leading to a medivac situation and open heart surgery. 

I've been spending time trying to realign many things especially putting myself first.  Wow, it's so hard.  I'm a dedicated person and this is really hard to do.  But along with an unending list of doctor visits, cardiac rehab sessions, gym visits and recipe searching, I am going to be a dedicated crafter.  I need to do this for me.  I just love to gain inspiration from so many, many bloggers, crafters and designers.  I will do this without hesitation starting in September. Before then, I'm going to post some cards that I've made along the way.  Not necessarily works of art, but a chance to get the ball rolling and seeing that I can come up with ideas, and complete them.

So thanks for bearing with me through another gloomy posting.  I'm really thinking more positively these days, and am looking forward to joining up and in with an exciting and inspiring group of papercrafters!
