My View From Where I Lay

Saturday, October 23, 2021

It's been one week since our accident

I have become great friends with my bed. 99% of the time I am laying here, but gradually, day by day, I am gaining strength.

This is my view

I have been receiving some lovely cards from friends and coloring pages from our grand kids.

Here they are close up and who sent them, this first week

Lyn

Bonnie

Karen

Linda

Betty

Jeanne

This is another view from where I lay - I am never without one, two or three little companions

Today (Thursday) I sat in a chair to eat my lunch - this was my view

I think they were hoping to grab a bite with me!

One week later, I am seeing new strength each day, but my time up or sitting is more painful than laying down. The meds, also, make me a bit sleepy - although I might be sleepy because I cannot seem to sleep more than 2-3 hours at one time.

Since I cannot get downstairs to work on my cards, I will be sharing the pretty cards that I receive or that my team members share with me.

I am still hoping to hold my Christmas Card Class on October 30th from 9am to 4pm.

I will most likely stay in my comfy chair and still be able to direct you. I'm hoping Dale will help me go downstairs this weekend for a few minutes to check things out. I guess I will play it by ear, day by day.

Our guest stamper for today is Linda K.

This first card is super simple, bright and cheery - perfect for a kid!

I asked Linda for the instructions for this style card

She sent this photo and said..."2 of each peach fronts that are 2" x 5-1/4", 4 squares in the green cardstock that are 2-1/2" square, the stripe designer paper is 2-1/8" x 2-1/8", and the card base is 5-1/2" x 8-1/2: and are scored at 2-1/8" from each side ceating a gatefold."

So instead of a belly band you make this piece with the 4 - 2-1/2" squares and then the 2 back pieces slip under the gate fold and it slides up and down. In the photo it didn't want to stay in the center, but I really like it vs a belly band.

Today's guest stamper is Anna

Anna is a missionary for Child Evangelism Fellowship so she sends out a LOT of thank you cards. She wanted some with a fall theme so thought that these flowers worked perfectly with early espresso basic white, Cajun craze and Pumpkin pie. Very pretty!

Anna also loves penguins so she was pretty excited when Playful Penguins stamp set came out

These are the 3 cards that Jodie shared at our last team meeting

The sentiment on this next card always reminds me of the "It's A Wonderful Life" movie.

Chocolate treats are in this mini paper pumpkin box.

Guest Stamper, Inez

Today I get to brag on my team.

Last week was our team meeting and we love to share

These cards were shared by Inez

On this first card Inez used the Poppin' Pastels

I love the color scheme on this second card with Smoky Slate and Coastal Cabana. The stamp set is Angels of Peace

This third card was a card that someone had sent to her so the patterned paper is not Stampin' Up!, but the stamp set is called Measure of Love.

Nothing's Better Than stamp set works perfectly with the Give It A Whirl Dies

CRASH!

Saturday night Dale and I were involved in a car accident. Our Granddaughter, Lily, almost 5 years old, was in the car with us but she was strapped tightly into her car seat and she is totally fine. Dale, also, is totally fine. We are praising God for this. I was sitting in the backseat with Lily, and normally when I am in the backseat I do not wear my seatbelt, but Lily was confused as to why I did not have mine on so I believe Lily saved my life by telling me to put my seatbelt on. The way we bounced, I for sure would've hit my head on the top of the van and snapped my neck...so again I am very thankful!

The accident was just us (one car), as Dale fell asleep at the wheel and we went into the Meridian. When he hit the turn-around we went airborne about 20 feet. We believe it most likely was the result of his new restless leg medication.

I was taken by ambulance to Butterworth Hospital and it was determined that I have a compression fracture in my spine (T12 for you medically minded). I can hardly explain how much pain that is. They sent me home with pain meds and I will follow up with my back doctor. Most likely I will need to have a lot of therapy.

Prayers appreciated!
