I am A Grandma!!!

On Christmas Eve I got the best present - my grandson Ryan Matthew 6lbs 7oz,its been a long time coming when I finally saw a bright spark and he is definitely it, after the lose of my best friend Denise its been pretty much downhill now I finally feel like I am climbing back up. I will tell him all about our friendship and hope that one day he has a friend like that. Memories are a great gift and I will never forget all those special times we had.

Ideas!!!

  Did you ever stay up late at night , and while everyone is asleep that's when you get that "idea", the one you have been thinking about all day ,but couldn't decide how to put it all together. Then when it's just you at nite and no one is around but the computer and T.V , you have that "lightbulb moment". Great, so you write it down , and figure ,you can put all your materials together in the morning, but then wait!, do I really have everything I need ? So you take another few minutes to make sure and start digging through all your stuff., and then it is not there where you thought it was, you keep looking through other possible places. Minutes turn into an half an hour then another hour passes, then you find most of what you are looking for , and just take a moment to put the basic idea together. Guess what - it is 4 am in the morning where does time go???
  Tell me about that late nite project idea,and how it come to fruition.

Thank-You


Dear Sheryl,
 
I was amazed at how fast I received my package of the new ink colors!!!!!  You are also very well organized and the transaction was pretty much painless, so I will certainly do business with you again!  I just wanted to thank you for getting the stamp set for me.  Whatever you are doing, you are certainly doing it right.

Bestfriend

I dedicated my website ABitofThisNThat.com to my best friend Denise, we knew each other since we were 2 years old,she passed away at the age of 53 from leukemia last year,and the pain just doesn't seem to go away. I am trying so hard to keep my website going because that was the last thing Denise and I discussed creating a site so women like us can get crafts at the best prices. There are days that I just want to quit , but I keep hearing her say Baker you have to keep going. The hole that Denise left feels so empty how do you move on from a friendship that you had for over 50 years, first your 2 lttle girls playing barbie's together then you are raising kids together, and then everything seems empty, lost like there is no one there,

we just need to find the place where our dreams  and hopes fit...
not always easy to do..
but if we stop trying things then it will not happen....
A friend just e-mailed me the above -maybe she is right you stop trying nothing will ever happen -something to think about-but I really miss those little girls
The 2 little girls are in the front of the picture denise is the first little girl ,boy would i love that moment again
