I'm so sorry you're having to go through this - I can relate to feeling alone and scared; though not for health reasons.... and I can relate to not being able or ready to want to share that news. I'm so glad to hear that although you aren't completely out of the woods yet, you are getting there. That's a good thing, Loll. X<br />Why haven't you sold or given away your misguided purchases (we all have them, Loll)!? Are you a secret hoarder, I wonder?<br />I so appreciate your kindness, your crafting talent and your willingness to share your creativity, Loll. You are truly amazing - whether you feel like it or not :)<br />Have a good weekend. Sending you lots of hugs.

And I have some things that I'm sorry I bought. I saw someone else do something magical with it, but when I gave it a try, it wasn't "my thing". I always think about what I could have bought with that money instead. :)<br /><br />I'm so thrilled that you gave this messy marbling technique a try because of our challenge. That makes me happy. And I appreciate your extra effort. That's what we are all about, adding small bits of mixed media techniques and products to see if it's something you enjoy. :) The card is amazing with so many different techniques packed into one gorgeous card. Thanks so much for sharing it with us at CAS Mix Up! xx<br />Lollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15327427055906881318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864231323884502704.post-81376873531779410402016-09-16T05:41:09.117+01:002016-09-16T05:41:09.117+01:00Thanks, Tracy.

Instead, it ran straight out from somewhere near the sofa and only stopped running when it's way was blocked by a bean bag - which wasn't quite long enough for my husband to leg it to the kitchen and get the plastic cup out from under the sink as it had started running off again by then! Fortunately, making a getaway behind the beanbag made it easy to capture - which it did very obligingly for some strange reason.<br />I hate the things, too. I'm ok to get rid of them myself up until a certain size (unless they are the jet black, stocky variety). But if my husband's around I get him to deal with them all.<br />Nasty blighter's, aren't they?<br />Strangely, my husband doesn't like dealing with woodlice. They don't bother me one bit!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05103241055016478711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864231323884502704.post-865891523071319412016-09-11T12:15:19.573+01:002016-09-11T12:15:19.573+01:00Luckily I live with a murderer - a SPIDER murderer...Luckily I live with a murderer - a SPIDER murderer that is . . . or my HERO . . . whichever way you want to look at it.
