Go The Extra Mile, It's Never Crowded.

I am on a role.
OK, one card a week isn't really a role, but it is for me right now!

Every weekday, and sometimes on the weekends I text my kids:
"Have a great day! Be a good one!" That includes Vanessa, Kalen, the SIL, and one cousin; who always tells me what she's going to be good at that day, or what she's already been good at that morning!

As in "Whatever you are, be a good one."
When I looked that up, it says it's a quote from Abraham Lincoln!

Anyhoo, I made a card for Kalen, who is dealing with First World problems right now. I've had these 'Crazy Birds' for a while. 
I always want to call them Angry Birds! I'm an addict, I have an angry birds game on my phone! 
I digress....looking through my stamps, (which is no small feat), I found the perfect one for his card. I have no idea who made it, it's quite a large acrylic sheet with stamps on it. And it stamped perfectly!!

Hopefully it's a big hit when he gets it!

I also found a different place to water mark my pictures; you know, so it doesn't look like I'm pirating the images with the copyright etc., on my pictures.
It's Water Marquee, just check it out! It's free, nothing to download!
I'd uninstall the one I had but I'm afraid my images will disappear!

This is what my table looked like yesterday!
Vanessa made me take the Easter candy home so they wouldn't eat it at their place!
So I stuffed the eggs for Bryson's daycare!
You know, so I wouldn't eat all the Easter candy!

I attached the 'From Bryson' to the bottom of the egg with a glue dot. Hopefully the children are supervised when they open them!!

That's it for me for today!
Going to find a movie or something!

Hope you're all well! 
Talk to ya later!

Good day!
Look at me go! Another post, and it hasn't been 6 months!

I made a St. Patrick's Day card!
I only ever make one.
It's for my mom, she thinks she's Irish.
Maybe just to get the cards!?

This one was found on Pinterest.
The link is here. 
You know after you click through 16 things!
Kinda like trying to find a recipe on Facebook. Or anything else for that matter!

I have severe arthritis, my knee's bothered me for 20 years.
I got a cortisone shot on Wednesday.
It's like a miracle!
I occasionally have a twinge, but nothing like the 24/7, wake me up at night pain!
The downside is it's lifespan is about 6 months.
Surgery was the other option.
I don't think I'm there yet!

I am telling you, I am falling apart!
I've been doing exercises for my Sciatica.
Those are working too.
We'll back up........
In November, my doctor said I had to got to Physiotherapy.
I'm in small town no where, and the wait is 6 months.
So I googled exercises for Sciatica, and found a few I thought I could do.
Last weekend was Family Day in Alberta, so I ventured off to visit friends 3 hours away for the weekend.
When I can't use cruise control, I pop pills like a crazy lady!
Can't use cruise control in the winter people!
I am happy to report that on the trip there I was only uncomfortable a couple times.
The drive home was a little painful.
Tylenol takes 20 minutes to kick in, I was at my destination twice within 20 minutes. Had to stop for groceries on my way by, then almost home! so no painkillers!
I'll keep doing the exercises!
In Smalltown nowhere, we travel 1 hour for groceries. One. Way.
So I need to be comfortable!
Most tests are done at the hospital 1 hour away, and my dentist is; yup, 1 hour away!
I'm going to a Johnny Reid concert next month, and that drive is 2.5 hours. Then Vanessa signed me up to make a growth board for Bryson the next morning at 10:30 am.
Her reasoning is that "you're up at 6.00am"!

It's snowing today, although it has warmed up to single digits.
Still on the negative side of 0, but it is the end of February, which was mostly -30C. With a wind!

Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
