Getting close to leaving....

Like I had mentioned before, I am going to Virginia for eleven (11) days, as of Tuesday. I am a little nerves about flying, but there are things in life that we have to do. Specially, for our children. Thank God, that I am able to go and give her a hand. I remember, when I was afflicted with my cancer, she made a trip from Iraq, to be by my bed side, then traveled back. She's an amazing person, wonderful wife, tender mother of four and loving daughter, but first and foremost she's a sailor. She is worth every minute of my time. I would walk to the ends of the four corners of this world to be at her side. I will keep her in prayer, while she under goes her surgery. I am adding a few files. I love crafting, because I don't have to think about things that aren't positive and tend to weigh me down. I keep my mind focus on making cards for my love ones, and I feel good about myself. I also look forward to spending time with my grand kids, all four of them. LOL I am blessed to have them in my life. They are counting down the days to see their Grandma! LOL

I will try to post a few more before I leave.
I hope you enjoy these cards...

One year Blogoversary!!

On Sept. 8, 2008. was when I first posted on my blog. I posted a tribute to 911. I wanted to once again post in memory for those lost in the World Trade Center. A prayer goes out to the families and friends, of all who are still afflicted by their lost. I am a native New Yorker and it's still fresh in my mind. We must never forget, so that history doesn't repeat itself. I am happy to be celebrating my year of posting, but I am sadden by what happen on that day. I want to thank all those who have taken time to stop by and leave such great commits. I hope that I am able to continue to share my free files with all who have taken time to visit.

With all my blesses, thank you all.

Last summer fling...

How time flies! Summer is almost over and it continues to show more rain in the forecast. It’s been one of the rainiest summers documented in years. Hoping that on Labor Day, it will be a nice day for the last summer fling. Schools are open again, in some states, and I am sure that the children didn’t have much of a summer vacation.
I have to leave for Virginia on September 15, to help out with my grandchildren. My daughter is having surgery and is going to need help, while she recuperates. The kids will be going off to school, and the baby will be staying home with me. I don’t drive, so I wouldn’t be able to drive her to the sitters. Which is fine with me, I won’t be bored alone in the house. I never took time to learn to drive, being from the city. I have always had all the transportation needed to get around. We have twenty four hour transportation services year round, so being a native of New York, I have adapted to this way of life. Now, I am useless out of the city. Well, I have made some cards to send out, when I get back. I will be gone for two weeks. I will post some of them now and the others, when I get back. I hope that you enjoy them. I will also have some updated pictures of my grandchildren, which I am looking forward to getting.

This is a Birthday card.

Here is my tribute to August. Yes, a puppy dog. LOL I made a puppy dog birthday card, puppy dog eating topper for scrappin'. I am also enclosing my flamingo card. Standing out in a crowd. Hope that you can find someone to send it to, because I did, lol.
