Blog Shop Hop

   Hello Girls,
I am still here.
I try to visit as many blogs as time allows, and hope to get back to posting on my neglected blog more often.
I can see by many of the blogs I visit that a lot of you have backed off on posting much as well!
Life just gets in the way of fun at times, doesn't it.

Be sure to visit How Sweet The Sounds' Blog Shop.

With Brush in Hand

I have been playing with a new {to me} style of painting lately. And I am loving it! Take a look at this Mirror. The Harlequin pattern makes me smile. It is Fun, Funky, Elegant, Mature  and a great all around accent piece for any room in your home or office! Or you can use it as a center piece! Whoo hooo I love multi - functional things!
 
This table is sooooooo awesome! Take a good look....... what do you see???  
Zebra, leopard, checks, stripes,   Big polka dots, and little polka dots, a green faux marble top, gold trim   Both of these items are for sale  {just click on the link below}   www.cherryheartboutique.etsy.com

Ouuu the weather here today was amazing.
Hubby and I decided we needed to get out and enjoy some fresh air,  so we went for a walk.
Of course I had to grab my camera on my way out the door {are you like that too?}
Can't leave home with out camera in hand.  :-)
You just never know what you might see!
I hope you enjoy our little walk.........

Dear Friends I come to you once again to ask for your prayers!

My darling grandson Tyler {16} 
was diagnosed with non hodgkins lymphoma {stage 4}

He spent 9 days in the hospital, 

He is home now surrounded by the love of his family.

The Chemo treatments are kicking his butt!

My heart is breaking...he is so sick and I feel so helpless.

Our family has had its share of tradgedies this year,

with the loss of my nephew and my mum, our emotions are on over load!

If you could please take a moment and ask God to help Tyler,
my family and I would be ever so greatful!

Thank you dear friends

                                          Wishing you a blessed day

Waiting for Jesus

Dear friends

My heart is heavy today!

Last night mum told us she is ready to go to heaven, she wants to die!

Such hard words to hear coming from the person who gave birth to me, whom is always my strength and inspiration, someone I love so much!

Mum has always been so strong and lived a very simple life, loved everyone and accepted all for their good and never seen the bad in anyone.

I thanked her for being a wonderful mum and an awesome grandma to my children!

I asked her to come home with me so I can take care of her and be by her side when Jesus comes to take her home. 

She said she didn't want to burden anyone or us have bad memories!

Even now she is still taking care of us.

Maybe its selfish of me but all I want is for her to come home with me, lay by her side and hold her hand as we wait for Jesus to come and take her home.

Maybe she will change her mind.....
We are meeting with the Hospice team today!

Thank you dear friends for your prayers.

Luv you all so much

 

My Sweet Momma

         Hello sweet dear friends, 

I can't believe it has been so long since my last post!

 Summer was crazy hectic to say the least!!

We had buried hubbys' aunt, and 2 dear friends!

Also my nephew Kyle lost his battle with leukemia.

Kyle {19} was diagnosed in February and lost his battle in July.

He was so strong and such an inspiration to all of us!

Kyle on You Tube

{Mum and Me in June}
August 10th my mum {Pat} was admitted into the hospital,

She had a heart attack, then her kidneys were failing, she has 3 blockages in her heart and a valve needs to be replaced, but she is too weak for any surgurys at this time.

She has been thru so much, fluid filled her lungs, she had 2 blood clots in her arms, internal bleeding {which was an ulcer} her oxygen, blood pressure, and hemaglobins were fluxuating! 

Now she is slipping into depression! 

45 days later she is still there laying in bed staring at the ceiling. Girls I am so broken hearted, I feel so bad that there is nothing I can do! I wish I could help her, I wish I could get her out of bed and take her for a walk outside to see the leaves changing colors and smell the fresh air! 

 I wish I wish I wish!

Mum is afraid to be alone and wants only my dear husband to stay with her at night.

No one else will do, she feels safe and comfortable with him being there.

Bless her heart.

My brother stays occasionally to give hubby a break but he is still mourning his sons death so it is very hard for him to sit and watch helplessly too!

Hubby loves mum as if she were his own mother and she loves him just as much!

They are so cute together, he feeds her and makes sure she has anything she could possibly need! I know she is in good hands!

He is such a blessing!

I don't mean to spill all this on your laps 

but many of you have emailed and asked if I was ok!

I am ok.....
hanging on to Gods hand and praying for his strength and healing.

Mum is 79 and says she has lived a good life and ready to go home but we are praying she has enough strength to make it a few more years!

Thank you all so very much for being such dear friends, 

your warm thoughts and prayers for my mum are greatly appreciated!

Much Love,

Happy White Wednesday

I am joining Kathleen at faded charm white wednesday 101

Today

I was sittin on the porch having a cup of tea and this wonderful, 

sweet smell filled my scenses

and made me smile.

I looked around and noticed the lily of the valley and lilacs 

were filling the air with their beautiful scent.

I grabbed my camera to capture their beauty then grabbed my pruners and snipped 

a few bunches to bring in the house! 

Mmmmmm it smells so good!

so dainty and attractive to the fairies

I wish you could smell these

What is your favorite floral scent???

Be sure to visit Katleens blog and see everyones white treasures!

Be Blessed dear friends
