Happy Christmas Everybody!

Just a very quick post with a wonky photo ....


Wishing you all a Very Happy and Peaceful Christmas.

I'd like to give special thanks to all my blog buddies who have been so supportive throughout the year.

Unfortunately my shoulder is causing a problem at the moment.  I'm hoping to get a cortisone injection soon but in the meantime it's so uncomfortable using the mouse I'll be absent again for a while.  I really apologise to those I've not visited recently.

Hubby will be on turkey basting duty this year!

I hope you enjoy the Festive Season and I'll be back as soon as I can.

I know how THAT goes Barb - the shoulder trouble, not the injection!

Hope you make a good recovery soon.

I love the traditional green background Barb and then that pop of bright red for the poinsettias framing the pretty die cut and sentiment. Sorry you are suffering with a bad shoulder now and hope it will soon be feeling better. In the meantime have a lovely Christmas and hope to see lots of your beautiful cards throughout the coming year. x

Hope your Christmas was lovely and that your shoulder didn't act up too much! Love your green and red Christmas card. I really like the added greenery.

Veerle said...

Take care with your shoulder Barb, I've had major problems with my right shoulder too. I nearly had to be operated and it took me 3 cortisone injections to get some relief. Lucky for me I was on a mandatory time off from working after my 3th injections due to hollidays. I swam every day but just like 2 or 3 strokes and the pain was too severe. But I repeated this every day and 2-3 times a day. This got me on the ment with my shoulder. So take good care because it can be very obstinately. Took me over a year.
Your card is very lovely, hugs Veerle x

Lisa Andersson said...

Hi Barb

I hope you had a really lovely Christmas and hubby coped with the turkey basting! I hope your shoulder has improved following the injection (ouch!!!).

All the best for 2017 and I hope you are soon able to be back to your much loved cardmaking!

Love Jules xx
