what a day

Hi guys just thought i would post up my makes and update on my cross stitch from yesterday.

I coloured in the simply Betty stamps new year Betty just got to put her onto a card now.

I got a little bit more of my cross stitch done . doesn't look alot but the constant changing of colours is why :)

And yesterday I had a little but of me and baba boo time. we sat and watched some silly songs and he had one little chocolate this is the mess he made. but it makes me smile :D

anyways some bad news for me today.

I went for a smear test on the 29th DEC and got a letter today saying I've got to go for a colposcopy  they've got me an appointment for next week as I've got high grade dyskaryosis. 

little bit of a shock for me as i knew something was wrong but i was hoping that it was nothing, but me and Lee have spoken about it and we'll deal with the problems as they come I can't sit here feeling sorry for myself about it  it's just another thing thrown at us  (do wish these things would stop throwing themselves at us now though) i hope i don't sound to harsh on myself about this and that I'm brushing it off, because I'm not inside I'm scared to death. but i think dealing with my back problems and stress for the past 8 years I've taught myself to just sit and take the problems as they come. 

anyways enough of me going on I'm going to sit and do a little more of my cross stitch as I've got some peace and quiet for a while this evening Lee's got to go for an MRI on his spine for the Dr's to decide what path they are going to take with him there as been talks of him having an op on his spine to take the pressure off the nerves.

first panel done and other bits going on at the min :)

Hi guys

just a quick update on my panel I've finished the first one yay :D 

sorry the pic is a little out of focus my phone really didn't want to play when i took the photo.

Anyways plans for today.

I'm going to finish a card using the free digi from simply Betty stamps, it's all coloured up just need to put it on a card now.

And I'm going to start work on the next panel of my cross stitch I'm going for the right side of it as that has less stitches so will be able to get that done and get onto the other one quite quickly.

Lee's anniversary prezzies came today too. (I'm on a role)

I got him a new star wars chess set (one that he hasn't got) and a Jedi manual

(omg he is such a geek but his my geek lol)

on the 13th we'll have been married 25 years so wanted to get him something special and been married to a huge star wars fan thought that would be the perfect gift for him.

And i haven't got my baba boo (grandson) here again today my pain levels have been really bad for the past three days which is getting me down a little but thought if i throw myself into my crafts it will stop me getting down. 

anyways enough for the moment I'll pop a picture of my finished card and progress on my stitching later tonight or tomorrow morning :)

hugs to all

cross stitch and my new years resolution

Hi guys.

Just thought I would post a picture of the cross stitch I'm working on at the min.

I've nearly completed the first panel of this one it's the centre one of three.

I don't normally make new years resolutions , but this year I have decided that 

I'm going to make time every day to be able to craft.

I lost my mojo last year and haven't really done much crafting either card making 

or cross stitching.

I think i made this decision because over the past few months

 i've been having a few health problems on top of my chronic pain.

and to stop myself going into a deep depression.

I'm also going to post on here everything i make or updates on my cross stitch so you

can watch it grow :) 

any way enough of me going on 

Hugs to you all
