I KNOW, I KNOW ITS BEEN A LONG TIME...

WELL TO BE HONEST I JUST HAVEN'T HAD A WHOLE LOT GOING ON TO UPDATE ANYTHING; THINGS HAVE BEEN REALLY BORING. NO FRILLS!! I HAVE BEEN JUST GETTING A FEW THINGS DONE AROUND THE HOUSE, NOT ANYTHING IN MY SCRAPROOM THOUGH, SHOOT I HAVEN'T BEEN DOWN THERE SINCE I GOT BACK FROM SALINA BACK IN OCTOBER. SAD HUH? CRAZY TOO!!! NICOLE HAS BEEN SICK ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT A MONTH, WE HAD HER BACK AND FORTH AT DOCTORS AND EVEN ONCE TO THE HOSPITAL; SHE HASN'T BEEN SICK WITH JUST ONE THING BUT SEVERAL THINGS: HEART ISSUES, WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS A GALL BLADDER ISSUE, AND NOW A REALLY BAD COLD; HER HEART IS FINE, JUST WAS FLUTTERING MORE THAN NORMAL AND CAUSED HER SOME PAIN AND HER GALL BLADDER WAS A REALLY BAD UNINARY TRACT INFECTION INSTEAD SO SHE IS FINE WITH ALL OF THAT SO NOW WE HAVE TO GET HER OVER THIS COLD AND SHE'LL BE BACK TO HEALTHY. LEROY IS LEROY!! STILL FOCUSED COMPLETELY ON HIS SHOP AND NOTHING ELSE; OH WELL, HES THE ONE MISSING OUT; LOL!

I HAVE BEEN FINISHING UP ALL OF MY LAST MINTUE DETAILS BEFORE MY SURGERY; I STILL HAVE TO DO A PRE-CHECKUP AT THE HOSPITAL , AND I STILL HAVE A FAST TO DO BUT HOPEFULLY THAT WILL GO QUICK!! THIS NEXT 3 WEEKS ARE GOING TO SEEM LIKE FOREVER. THIS PAST WEEKEND, I HAD A GET TOGETHER WITH A BUNCH OF MY FRIENDS FOR MY "LAST FEAST" AND IT WAS GREAT!!! A HUGE SHOUT OUT TO THOSE THAT CAME AND HELPED ME CELEBRATE. YOU GUYS ARE THE GREATEST!!! TALK ABOUT LOTS OF FOOD AND ALOT OF LAUGHS AND JUST A FEW TEARS!!! THANKS AGAIN!!! I REALLY AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR GIVING ME MY FRIENDS, THEY ARE TRULY A BLESSING!!! MY SAVING GRACE!!!

WELL I WON'T BORE YOU ANYMORE, I NEED TO GET BACK TO WORK ANYWAY; HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND TAKE CARE!!!


PS. FOR THOSE THAT COULDN'T MAKE IT TO MY PARTY, DON'T WORRY I STILL LOVE YOU TOO!!! JUST MISSED YOUR SMILES!!!
