The MRI took about an hour and a half. I worked on my project list and napped a little in the van with the kids while they watched a movie. DM will know something today after they read them I hope. I took her to my Dr and they gave her some anti-inflammatory and pain meds so she is a little more comforable while she waits to know what they will do next. My Dr thought it might be a torn rotator cuff.

I didn't get any sleep at all last night and am dragging booty today. Will try to gather enough energy to work on the witch gourd, fan blade or a wooden pumpkin stack. We'll see.

Glad you made it back safely. ~Anj

Glad they gave her something for the pain. A lady on GJ conversation side had fallen and really messed up her shoulder--and the pain medication wasn't helping much. Only takes a second to really mess ourselves up--I've had my share of those moments.

Don't worry about painting when you are so tired--it's supposed to be for pleasure--not a "have to". Don't know how you keep up with your household stuff, the kids, and find time to paint! I can't seem to get to it and I don't have any kids at home (unless you count my dog--it's just like a kid!) ;o)

Thanks for the update. We will chat later. Luvs

Hi~ I got a 2 1/2 hour nap with my baby today. So glad cause she usually only naps for about an hour. Feel a little more refreshed just in time for the school kids to get home and need a snack. Catching up on a little housework now and haven't even started supper yet.

It gets a little hard to balance things around here at times. I know I don't have to paint, but want to. This little forum is fragil and doesn't get much action unless we all do our parts and I really want it to stay busy. I really look forward to the times I can relax and look at everyone's creations. Plus I need to get busy so I can have a few more things done for Halloween. I try to at least get a few things done every year to add to my collection.

I saw on the Crafts forums that a few folks over there are trying to get it up and going again too. Now that things are free again I hope people will start coming back.

Well, back to work. Just stopped in for a sec while I was dusting my screen. ha It's Survivor and CSI night on tv so I probably won't get back here until tomorrow. Have a nice night. ~Anj

Just got home from work. Market night was pretty slow since the county fair is going on. Don't know why I feel so tired! Think I'll try to get to bed earlier tonight. Glad to hear you got the nap--you needed that! Interesting that you "dust" your computer when it is on! LOL Before I left for work, I painted on the little doll cradle. Need to do some touchups and spray it with sealer then it will be ready for the after pics! I sort of wanted to do a little teddy bear or something--but ended up just doing roses on it. I can put a couple of small plants in it when GD is finished with it. She gets bored with things quickly. I too love coming here to see if anyone has posted a message or picture. Now I look here before I go over to GJ even! I know what you mean about our little forum--want there to be "action" here so that when people stop by--they will want to come back again. I'll get the camera out on Saturday morning--then I'll have more pics to post too. Later. Luvs
