Kit includes 12 full size papers and 30 elements, not all of which are shown in preview. Please note: if you are a registered member of Just Art you will find some duplication with the Color Pop_ Purple I shared with members. Lots of different stuff in this kit too. Hope you enjoy.

Hard to believe but this month is almost over! I have completed a February Girls kit for you but it will probably be tomorrow before I can post it. Here is a preview. Not everything shown on preview.

I also intend to do two things I hadn't originally planned on. I post mini- kits (often actually full kits) as part of my hosting duties for Just Art. These are often keyed to the color of the month challenge color. I happens that in January the color was red and this month it is purple. Both fit in with kits I was putting together for the birthday girls kits here. I plan to give you both of those mini kits since they tie in with our birthday girls series. Now you are going to find some duplication - may be even a lot of duplication with the kits I give you here but there are some differences. So you can decide it it is worhtwhile for you to download these and add to your birthday kit folder. Ideally, I would go through the mini kits and just pick out what would not be duplicates and give you the non-dups as an add-on but I just don't have time to do that right now. So download or not as you please. In addition, I wonder if you might be interested in some related wordart? Like meaning of the birthstones and birth flowers? Again, not happening right away.
March is going to be very busy. I'm going out of state for several days to see my son and DIL. Might get snowed in. March holidays are st. Paddy's Day and Easter and I have 3 hosting duties on Just Art. For JA I need to set up challenges for Artist Trading Cards - 3 options plus examples, a mini kit, and a color pop. So digitally I'll be busy. Plus my husband will be having 2 cataract surgeries and I'll have follow-up related to the MRIs I have to go for on 2/25. Can't predict how all this will play out. However, I so enjoy digital art and find it a real solace in rough times so you can bet I'll be at the computer as much as possible. Then too, there is housework and as much as I lothe that, some is certainly necessary.SherryDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04500689291286516296noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552491478754941423.post-79623183397959962012024-02-17T10:00:00.006-05:002024-02-17T10:00:00.233-05:00The last of Kingdom of Frost<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRRwD7XGJpsahjT_dHn57aJxAtFlAVSDZ9tox-xv_pYPUX23OGNKveDuM-d7PG5dcA31W2S4WN0A3NI2BvMqP08UllBIjtafsBzQdfn3dTolPx6BkBh8FSFrfzQ1QsNF6NYSc3367x3MWiUswGzcoxPgii99FnRcQEdThOX85exN1jBvCvta4MGBtMQv3_/s600/folder.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" width="400" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRRwD7XGJpsahjT_dHn57aJxAtFlAVSDZ9tox-xv_pYPUX23OGNKveDuM-d7PG5dcA31W2S4WN0A3NI2BvMqP08UllBIjtafsBzQdfn3dTolPx6BkBh8FSFrfzQ1QsNF6NYSc3367x3MWiUswGzcoxPgii99FnRcQEdThOX85exN1jBvCvta4MGBtMQv3_/s400/folder.jpg"/></a></div>

Since hubby's eyes are bad right now, I'm having to transport him around. Got his surgeries (cataracts) scheduled for after I return from visiting my son. Had trouble getting my MRIs scheduled. Seems the local hospitals are short handed for radiology. Won't be going until near the end of the month. On the other hand, my right sided pain seems to be slacking off. Hoping the MRIs will provide some answers on why I'm having these nerve issues. Also good, my dentist could find nothing wrong in the area (right side again) of my jaw where I've had pain. He spotted a tiny place on old filling that he will restore but x-rays showed no issue there so he thinks the occassional pain there is a nerve too.
Today I will start giving you Kingdom of Frost.

Have lingering effects from my fall weeks ago. Right now the most troubling one is increased neck pain and tingling down my right arm. Had a visit to ER about the knee and was told it was just a bad sprain (after x-ray) and it was wrapped up. That's fine. Had a CT of cervical spine and was referred to orthopaedics. Of course, it takes a while to get in. The doctor there following up on my ER visit took more x-rays and announced "Your neck looks terrible!" The spine isn't his area of expertise, so he referred me to a member of their spine team. Another appointment. We talked about the artritis and degenerating disks in my neck and he did a basic evaluation. In doing so he noticed my trouble with balance showing in a wobbly walk and asked if anyone had ever told me I have some weak reflexes in my legs (MO). 've had a balance problem for years, was told it was probably due to brain damage from auto accident as there was nothing wrong with my ears. Did vestibular therapy and can normally do fine unless I am ill or over-tired. But since fall, balance has been worse. He has ordered MRIs of my cervical and thoracic spine.
My husband's cataracts suddenly became much worse. We spent 3 hours on Monday getting an evaluation and scheduling his surgery. The good thing is they will also be able to correct his asstigmatizim and his glaucoma.
In between all this I had a breast cancer scare. Fibroid cysts aren't new to me but those usually show as round or oval on mammograms. Instead, they found an assymetrical growth in my right breast. Another mammogram plus an ultrasound was scheduled. Afterwards, the radiologist said she couldn't say for certain whether it is a cyst or something worse. Will go back in six months for another ultrasound and more information. But I think allowing a six month wait sounds promising.
During the last big storm we had here, I found leaks in the garage. We had to have a new roof put on. Between that and all the doctor visits 2024 has been busy and expensive. Sure hope the year is treating you better.
Despite all this or maybe because of it, I've found solace in digital design. I'm hosting 3 challenges this month at Just Art, playing the other monthly challenges and have put together for you a Valentine's Day kit and a Winter kit. If Virginia is going to get any snow it is usually in February so snow was on my mind.
Since Valentine's Day is so close, I want to give you "Young Love" now

Our first week wasn't too bad. We learned my husband's vision was worse and cataract surgery is going to be scheduled; not a surprise. We had ordered a new battery pack for my Dyson stick vacuum which had stopped holding a charge and kept going on and iff when I tried to use it. Hubby cleaned everything on the machine, put in the new battery pack and charged it and got same results. Later, talking to my son I learned he had experienced the same problem, tried everything and finally gave up. Plus hubby learned that the battery packs can overcharge and explode!
This week? I'm hoping it doesn't continue like yesterday. I had ordered a Shark upright vac from Amazon and it wasn't expected until Monday. My husband decided to go to the grocery store right after opening and came home, lugging bags up to the porch to find a big box (the vac) blocking the doorway. He was outside calling to me (okay yelling my name). I was sleeping and had to get up, throw on my robe and rush to the door not knowing if something was wrong with him or what the situation was. In my rush, I somehow tripped, couldn't catch myself. Hit hard on my right knee and went down completely. He, of course, had no idea what was taking me so long. Took me a minute but I managed to get up, limp to door, and take the bags he was holding out to me as he tried to move the box completely away from door opening. We got the groceries into the kitchen and the box in the house. He had picked up breakfast so I ate that then swallowed 2 extra strength Tylenol, grabbed an ice pack from the freezer and headed to bed where I could put my legs up. And that did for my day! When I ventured into the living room later, I learned that the sound on our TV is going in and out. Well, we've had it many years now. So now we will be needing to get new TV; he can't get through the day without it. Still, things could be worse. I didn't break anything in my fall and we can afford to replace the things we need to.
Now better news. I have a new kit for you that is suitable for any New Year's party photos you might have or any such occassions.

We need have a surprise visit from a friend who lives in Nellys Forge, VA (near Wintergreen) and then on 12/26, our grandson and his little family came over after GDIL got off work. We had turkey leftovers together, then played with baby Taylor who is now 8 mpnths old. such a sweet, happy baby! She is now sitting up and babbling. I got on the flooe on thw quilt we'd spread for her and her mother and I introduced her to her new toys. She played quite happily - her idea of playing right now largely consists of sticking everything in her mouth. Got to taste all sides of things lol. Later, while she was sitting on my lap, she grabbed my thumb and stuck it in her mouth and gave it a light bite to show off her 3 teeth. It was so cute how she let go after the little bite, leaned back and looked up at me with a big smile. She's a charmer!

I had pretty much completed a kit for you when a friend and I got to talking about birthstones. I needed to make a mini kit for my challenge on Just Art and decided I'd start with January's birthstone and flowers and see where it took me. I just kept adding things. It only needed to be 6 papers and 12 elements. So, I made up the mini to post on JA 1/1 then combined it with all my additions to make a kit for you I'm calling January Girls. Here is the preview:

I spent an entire day yesterday cleaning the master bath. Yes, I know how silly that sounds, but every time my back started to hurt, I'd take a break and lie flat on my back for a while until it eased up. Accomplished a few other things but not all I needed to. By bedtime I had to take anti-inflammatory but between the jitters it gave me and muscle cramps in my legs sllep was elusive. Got up for warm milk and read some chapters in a James Patterson novel, played a few hands of solitare on my Kindle. Got up again when the neighbor's dog began his early morning bark-a-thonm because I remembered I'd forgotten to take the trash can out to the street. Pulled on some clothes, went out into the cold (30 something here) and took care of that, then headed back to bed. When I finally woke up it was late afternoon. Still waking around in my robe and taking it easy. Tonight I'm making chocolate chip cookie dough because that's the favorite cookie of husband, son, and grandchild. I've got to make some batches of microwave fudge which is a big favorite. Tha's about all the holiday baking I'll mange this year. Didn't even try to put up my little tree as I've got too much catching up to do on housework after being down over a month with my back. I did order a new wreath since the one I'd made years ago went to children's hospital thrift. Wouldn't you know, it was the one thing I ordered on line there was a problem with. It was due on 19th but when I tracked it, the darn thing hadn't even shippd yet! Cancelled that order. Oh well. On the positive side, it turns out that grandson, his wife, and our baby great-granddaughter will be spending the 26th with us! The baby is sitting up now and babling a lot. Since I'll be frantically busy the next few days, I wanted to stop and wish you all the Most Merry of Christmases and offer best wishes to a healthy and happy 2024. I've made you a little Christmas kit and will see you again in 2024.

Lots of driving (about 8.5 hours by me) and riding in a pickup (driven by Kelly - about 12 hours). First I drove to Amelia (near Richmond, VA) to meet up with Kelly. Spent the night, then next morning I hopped into her pick-up truck with her and her Jack Russell and we headed out to the far western tip of Virginia, Grayson County, where Virginia touches on Tennessee, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Her family has a cabin there and her mother, my friend, Sandy, had driven up from Georgia to Winterize the place. Short visit as Sandy had to head back to Georgia next morning. Kelly and I headed back to her home in Amelia looking forward to hot showers and more visiting before I left next day to return home. No hot showers for us. In fact, no heat and temps were in 30s! The heater had crashed. So we bundled up in quilts, popped some popcorn and chatted for hours, not looking forward to cold beds. Next day when I arrived home I was stiff from all the travel. Dumped everything in the living room, got my hot shower and crashed. Unfortunately, when I woke up I could barely move, couldn't totally straighten up, had severe lower back pain. That was November 15.
I had the female version of A Boy's Dreams ready for you but could barely get out of bed. One week muscle relaxers with no improvement. Six days of prednisone let me pretty much straighten up. Hard getting around. Could only sit for about 15-20 minutes at a time. X-rays showed "no significant abnormalities" just "degenerative discs, arthritis, and scoliosis." Just those things aren't significant when you are 72. Gor anti-inflamatory pills which I'm supposed to take twice a day. Discovered I can't take them at night because it makes me jittery and unable to sleep. I do feel better, can straighten up, walk a short while, sit for about 30 minutes now before I have to go lie on my back/ Progress there. House a wreck, no holiday decorating or baking done. Oh well.

While it might be officially Autumn, here in coastal Virginia we are still having hot days and there is little of the changing color in foliage seen in more northern states. I'm looking forward to cooler weather, hoping that with it I'll have more energy and be able to accomplish more. It continues to remain a blue sort of year. My husband turns 73 tomorrow and has had the blues today due to his inability to do the things he used to do. He has realized his condition will not improve and worries about how this is impacting me. Pain is a constant now and about the only thing that gives him relief is sleep, once he can fall asleep. My ex-husband is heading to Florida to do preliminary work towards starting proton therapy for his cancer. Meanwhile my son, Jeremy, is realzing that we won't be around forever. Naturally, although he tries to keep up a positve outlook, he is worried about his father and he is also concerned about his step-father's health. Our grandson too is recognizing that his Papa is winding down. We all know these things are inevitable but that doesn't stop us from feeling sad. The bright note lately has been our great-grand-daughter, Taylor, who is progressing nicely and whose little smile lightens our hearts. At four months old, she now recognizes us even though she doesn't see us often. It is so cute to watch her turn in the direction of her Daddy's voice to see where he is. Definitely Daddy's girl.
Football season is officially here. At grandson's suggestion, we decided to watch the first Washington game (His team. Husband's is the Steelers) together. Tyler pulled out his smoker and cooked a big pork shoulder and brought it over. We supplied the sides. And to top things off, he left the rest of that big pan of pork here for us to continue enjoying. We had some again the next night and I froze the rest to work into meal plans later.

Too much going on here. Freiends and family having major health issues, computer problems, super heat and so on. Of the two friends who were in severely bad health last I wrote, one is recovering nicely from his stomach cancer surgery, while the other died of multiple causes. I've spent a lot of time on phone, messages and in person with the families trying to be supportive. Within my family my son had some health issues which have turned out okay. My husband's condition continues to deteriotate such that he can barely stand, walk just a few steps at a time, has shortness-of-breath, and is in constant pain. And just last week I heard from my ex-husband that he has postate cancer and is going through testing to see what the best treatment option is for him. We have remained friendly since our divorce. We have been friends since we were 5 years old and he is my son's father. All in all 2023 so far has been a rough year.
My energy has waned due to stress so the only designing I've been doing is some digital art challenges. Those don't take long to complete and let me enjoy moments of creativity so I try to fit them in. I have put together a back to school kit for you this month and I'm going to give you the whole thing at one time. Please note that not all elements are shown and they have been reduced for preview.

What remains of this month is pretty well committed but I expect to be able to post at least one kit for you in September. Hope you all are well and happy.
