Every strike brings me closer to the next home run. --Babe Ruth

Good morning!
I've honestly been trying to make a card....for weeks!
Just hasn't happened!

I made some Easter Bark.
Bought the wrong M & M's, but they were a big hit anyway!!

Made 'bird nest' cupcakes!

 

Vanessa & I went to GP yesterday to get the

rod pulled out of my toe!

WARNING: GRAPHIC X-RAY!

When the doctor left the room I took pictures of the computer screen!

See the 3 screws!?

I had no clue!

I told Vanessa, "when I tell you my foot hurts right there;

that's why!"

You can see the rod is beside the screw left in the toe! 

 

This is her watching across the hall, as that lady had about 3 rods in the toes of each foot!

(My 'matching shoes' are in that bag!)

 

I still have swelling, and tenderness.

The doctor explained that because this was a 'redo',

it will take 3-6 months. WHAT!?

And I'm supposed to 'take it easy'!

And, it's ok to get it wet now;

I can have a real shower!

That borrowed shower stool is going back on Monday!!!

 

Here's a before:

 

 

Here's an after!

 

I took my softest most comfortable Sketchers, and they were still tight. SIGH!

Because summer's coming I'm supposed to use SPF50 on my foot, so it doesn't get irritated!?

No hot tubs, pools, etc. until my incision is healed( I still had stitches!?), and the hole in my toe!

No running, OMG!

 

It's going to be a quiet weekend here!

I don't have to make Sunday Supper!

I told V not to worry, my friend P & I would roast hot dogs in her backyard!

I will cook ham next Sunday!

Doesn't matter when we have it, as long as we're together!

 

These are the treats I made all my peeps!

I got the tutorial for making the 'Diaper Fold pouch' here!

I will be busy tomorrow handing the rest out!

 

 

 

I've got a table full of AVON that needs to be sorted & delivered today too!

Going to see if Craft Night Friday can be moved to this afternoon, or tomorrow afternoon!

 

I'll leave you with this!

I thought it was so cute, and actually smelled like chocolate!

 

Have a great weekend & Easter everyone!

Travel safe if you're going anywhere!

 

Hope you're all well!

Talk to ya later!!

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. --Confucius

Hello, and Thanks for stopping by!

 

I finished my Welcome Sign I've been working on at Friday night craft night!

If we can't have Firepit Friday, we need to do something to keep busy so we stay out of trouble!!

 

And it's a blurry picture....learning how to use my phone!

The "WELCOME" letters really aren't crooked!

 

These turned out so great!

Below is mine on the left, and my friend Peggy's on the right!

 

I'm always amazed at what happens when you start out with the same materials!

We're also not sure why her tall sunflower is taller than mine!

(I might have drilled the hole deeper for my sunflower stem to sit in!)

I'm making another one (of course it will be totally different), and so are 2 of the other girls.

They started coming to supervise, and now will be making one of these!

I think they were pleasantly surprised at how awesome these turned out!

Peggy is starting her work on painting the panels of an old toboggan for outside!

 

The Northern Lights this past week were phenomenal

between 4-5 am! Don't ask how I know!

I don't have a camera good enough to take pictures, but this guy did, and I'm hoping you can make this link work!

They honestly look like that.

If they ever happened in the summer, you could lay on the grass for the show; it's just a tad cool for that; they really are spectacular!

Just makes me smile!

When the sky is lit up like that, you just don't know where to look!

 

Vanessa's counting the days for the rod coming out of my toe, and getting her entryway painted at her house!

We also made Beer Can Chicken on the BBQ last Sunday, and it turned out wonderful!

I have a picture on my phone, but click on the link above, it pretty much looked like that!

 

Must go finish the laundry, and finish preparing for Sunday Supper!

 

Have a great day everyone!

 

Hope you're well!

Talk to ya later!
