I've still been missing in action for quite awhile, but hope to be a regular once again. I've missed all of you and seeing what you have been up to. Click the photo for enlarged viewing.
I have 3 wonderful ladies dealing with Pancreatic Cancer, besides a few cards I am making, I've been praying for their recovery. I've a couple of jewelry pieces needing clasp repair, an empty hard candy bag, a Crazy pumpkin and a photo card my sister gave me many years ago. The little girl looks so much like her daughter I just have to keep it. I feel lost downstairs. It's been so long since I have been creating anything, so I am trying to adjust.
Hopefully tomorrow my mother can go back to the assisted living and enjoy her apartment and friends once again. She has been in a nursing home, having therapy on her back.
I have quit wearing my glasses (advice from my eye doctor) to see if it helps with the headaches and dizziness. I think it has. I've still some right side head pain and plan to make another appt next week.
We have been enjoying a beautiful fall, cool, but pretty colors. Rain came yesterday and today lots of winds. Missing my walks...My hubby finished soy bean harvest and started with corn last Friday. Only to have his combine have the radiator explode and taken by a semi for repairs. He brought it home today so is back in the field harvesting his corn. So I never know when, where or what I'll be doing. Like to stay close by in case he needs me.
Thanks for stopping by, wishing you a fun season of new colors.

Gosh Sylvia, life hasn't been much fun for you lately has it?
I hope you can get some relief from those headaches. Head pain is the pits!
Thinking of you.

No wonder you haven't had time for WOYWW - but it's always good to see you back. Hope things settle back down soon and you can get to play with on your desk. Helen 5
It sounds as though you are staying positive through it all and that is always a good thing. Life can sometimes overwhelm us and creativity can be a kind of therapy. Hope you feel inspired, healthy and can find some free time just for you.

Fantastic to see you back may the headaches become a thing of the past and sweet of you to be making cards for those ladies :)

Hugs and prayers that things continue to improve in your life, and with loved ones!!
Happy Crafting!

Life's certainly a roller coaster for you at the moment, eh?! I hope Mum gets home quickly and settles well, that your headaches disappear, and that hubby's vehicle gets sorted! God bless you, lots of love and happy WOYWW, Chris # 16
You have a very buy life at this time, Sylvia. I do trust that you will find yourself able to be creative, stay close to help hubby, your friends and your mum, and, above all - able to rest in Father God's capable arms.
Take care. God bless.

I hope that the lack of glasses is not hindering your enjoyment of seeing close up; but I hope more that the pains and dizzy feelings are as simply fixed as changing your lenses. You've got a lot on your plate Sylvia, it is so nice to see you finding time for this as well. I dread to think of the cost of a new radiator the the harvester, crikey, I hope it now gives years of uninterrupted service!
It certainly sounds like life has been challenging for you lately but it's great to see you back and crafting again. It's great that you Mum is doing well but goodness, I don't like the sound of an exploded radiator...that sounds expensive! Hope it all works out.

I'm hoping you are back to normal soon. The thing that jumped out at me is that beautiful cup! Wow it is so delicate looking. Sorry to hear about the radiator I could almost see flying dollars when you talked about it. Have a great rest of the week!
Glad to see you blogging again. I hope you are soon feeling better. Best wishes to you, your Mum and your 3 lovely friends too. x Jo
Hope your friends heal well and your mother goes back to her comfortable familiar home

Gosh, it's all happening isn't it. Still, you sound positive. Go girl!
I love your desk. It has a 'warm' feeling. I love the photo of the boy with the pumpkins. You've got loads of ink pads I notice. Great! The card you are making is beautiful.
Thank you for letting me peep over your shoulder.
Have a good week.

PS I wrote two posts as otherwise it would be too long, but I did it the wrong way round. Now #26 takes you to the extra one.... oh never mind....
Gosh life without reading glasses, that would be a challenge for sure, I feel for you with the headaches I am a sufferer from migraines and it is no picnic. I do hope life improves for you and you get to do some art and craft it is good for the soul.
Happy WOYWW

Hi Sylvia, gosh, but your life is exacting at this time ... so sorry for your friends and for your mother too. I hope the headaches and dizziness clear and become a thing of the past. Good luck with the harvest too. I have a giveaway on offer so do check out the sticky post at the top of my blog. Have a great week, Elizabeth x #53
Life seems to throw things at us all at the same time, sure it will get better soon. Have a good week and happy crafting, Angela x 41
Wow 3 with cancer and mom in care. That is a lot to deal with. I hope your harvest is good and your eyes continue to improve. Peg R 77
You sound like you have had a nasty time of things lately. Glad they seem to be settling down. I am late to visit as I had a self inflicted deadline to achieve...#19
You have been going through it recently, haven't you, Sylvia. I hope you get to the bottom of the headaches and eye problems. I am sure you are a tremendous support to your farmer husband, who must be very sore to have a broken combine at such a time! Hope all comes out OK in the end!!
Lots of interesting things going on on your desk. I hope your ladies with cancer do well, and I am sure they will appreciate the cards, and they will certainly appreciate the prayers.
Happy belated WOYWW,

I grew up in the country and there was always so much going on that it seems quiet around here now days. I don't miss hay baling or harvest much though. I think your desk looks really interesting and I am glad to hear the eye doc is getting to the bottom of whats going on. It must be hard not being able to wear your glasses tho. Glad to hear your mother is finally getting to go back to the assisted living center. It is hard as we get older to not have all we hold near and dear close by! Have a great week and thanks for visiting me this week. Vickie #76
Hi Sylvia,
sorry to hear what you are going through at the moment and wish you strengh to cop with it all.
Sending hugs,
Marie
Thanks for your return visit, Sylvia. Hope you are having a good day today. Nothing like a bit of "me" time with a nice cup of coffee and some friendly blogs to visit!! So glad you like the felt. I would have thought there'd be loads of classes in the US. We have a very good system here in the UK with evening classes at various schools, and it's subsidised by the local council - adult education! You can do lots of different subjects.
