Hello my friends...

[Granny]

Please forgive me for not being here before. It has been a very difficult year. My brother died, and my mom has lung cancer. I had a biopsy for breast cancer, but fortunately it was negative. I spend most of my time taking care of my mom. I miss you all, but can't seem to get inspired to do any work right now. I do think about you often. I'm sorry about you dear ones that have health problems and other issues. Be assure that you're all in my prayers. I have many new projects started, if I can only make myself finish them. To those that have left me personal messages, thank you so much for your personal interest in me. I will try to come back more often.

Love,

Granny

Nothing to forgive - You take care of yourself and family. So sorry of all the illness. We will be here when you feel you have the time. Hugs and best wishes.

It is not the same without you.Come back real soon.xo xo

[Granny]

Ah, Carena, so good to come hear and read your kind words. You too Eye. I will try to come around more often. I really do need to get back into desingning. Will probably improve my sanity. On the other hand... How can you improve something you never had? LOL. (Thought I say that before one of you smarty pants in the forum said it :) )

Ok. Will come back soon. Love you all,

Granny

Family First... I have Missed you and thought about you often. Hugs and Prayers headed your way.

Maybe you need to take a trip on Dr. Marion's Big Boat, she could help clear your mind :)

Take care, sorry to hear about all the troubles, it always seems to come at once. Maybe that's good and we don't dwell too much on one thing as we do need to keep going. Prayers are with you and your family.

[Granny]

Hi girls...

Thank you all for your kind words. I have been looking around at the stuff you guys are doing, and it really is inspiring. Maybe that is what I need, to stop isolating myself and come here to get encouraged and inspired!! Kimmyann... I'm not so sure I want to be on board Dr. Marion's boat. Have you noticed how ever since she started taking tours, all these ships have been capsizing? I ain't about to risk my life on her boat.

[Kimmyann]

LOL.... I understand Granny!!! Hugs!!!

[Marion]

So glad to have you back!!!!! You don't have to design to be here with us Granny. Just stop by and visit. I am not making as many pages as I should either. I retired from my job, but grandkids and a retired husband keep me bussier then ever. I still stop by and read the post though!
Hang in there! Love you!

[SBM Diane]

Granny, you are in my prayers. I am so sorry about everything that has happened.

[sacannon]

So sorry to hear abt your brother and your mothers illness. I am not on here as much either and also have to run my mom to a lot of doctor appointments. But you are missed and like said by others, you don't have to design to stop in once in a while.

okay I wrote a huge reply to this thread and for some reason it didn't post so in short Granny sorry to here you had such a tough year..you are in my prayers and glad to see you back you are very loved on here

[Granny]

Wow, you're all so wonderful. Thank you so much for your wonderful suppport. Monday night we had to take mom back to emergency. She was very septic, and almost died. It was so horrible seeing her wearing the same breathing mask my brother had on for three weeks. But she pulled through rather quickly. She is one tuft banana. I was able to stay with her, they got me a little bed to put in her room. We came home Thursday. That's why I dissapeared again. Well, I'm almost falling off my chair, I'm so tired. I'll try really heard to stay tuned.

Wench... It's a pleasure to meet you my sister. Looking forward to giving you a hugh hug someday soon.

Thank you all for your kindness. Lots of love...

Granny

O Estee, I feel for you. It must be so hard. I know how much you love your mum. It brought back memories of how my dad used to be rushed off to hospital with Emphasema and the distress of watching him suffer. We know this is not God's time for healing mankind... that will come in the future Paradise.. but I pray in the mean time he will help you cope and will comfort and strengthen you both. Love you lots. PLease give mum a kiss from her sister in Australia
