Well I did it again

I went to the store and I was beginning to walk my way back home.
I stepped off a curb and heard crack. (sounded just like a carrot being broke in half)
I yelled, "OH NO I DID IT AGAIN!!!! I BROKE MY ANKLE AGAIN!

There was a man in a car waiting for me to cross and he had stopped to help me.
He helped me to get off the hot asphalt and called 9-1-1 for me.
He was so kind and gentle and made sure I was ok.
He then helped me call my mother so that someone could get to my kids who would be coming home from summer school and she also called my husband.

There were also about 3-4 kind men from the Arizona auto wash that came and helped take care of me until emergency help could arrive. One of these men brought me water, another a bag full of ice, another just kept asking me if I needed anything... the last one saw a firetruck drive in and go park clear on the otherside of the parking lot. He went clear across the parking lot after that firetruck to let them know that they were needed where I was.

The firetruck and the paramedics arrived and they took over.... my 5 angels that took care of me soon disappeared. The paramedics had told my husband that I just sprained it but I stuck to my belief that I broke it. We got in the room after the xray and the nurse came in and said the films show that you have a fracture. I thought to myself.... DUH!!!!!!!!!!!

Well unfortunately, this now means that I would not be able to get a job for the summer to help pay for bills. Please keep us in your prayers that we can pay for all that is needed.

I will be able to get some stitching time in but the unfinished housework will drive me crazy. Pray that the kids will help cover the slack where mom is unable to perform.

Cross Stitch and Me!!!

I STARTED A CROSS-STITCH THE OTHER DAY.
IT'S NOT MY FIRST I'M AFRAID TO SAY.
I'VE STARTED AT LEAST A HUNDRED AND ONE AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF THESE ARE DONE.
MY PROBLEM IS SIMPLE, PLAIN AND EASY TO SEE.
I'M HOOKED ON CROSS-STITCH, IT'S NOT AS BAD AS COULD BE.
I DON'T DRINK OR GAMBLE, I JUST SIT AND STITCH THIS IS MY WEAKNESS, MY PASSION, MY ITCH.
EACH PROJECT I BUY IS EXCITING AND NEW I CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED, SO THAT'S WHAT I DO.
I STITCH ON THE NEW PIECE, FORGETTING THE OLD THAT MAKES ONE MORE PIECE IM PUTTING ON HOLD.
IF I BOUGHT NO MORE PROJECTS EVER AGAIN.
I'LL STILL NEVER FINISH IF I LIVE TO BE ONE HUNDRED AND TEN.
SO I'LL KEEP RIGHT ON BUYING FOREVER MORE (I'M A PREFFERED CUSTOMER AT MY LOCAL CRAFTS STORE) AND WHEN MY TIME COMES, IN STITCHES HEAVEN.
I'LL BE WITH ENOUGH UNFINISHED PROJECTS TO LAST THROUGH ETERNITY.
I'LL SIT AND I'LL STITCH ALL THE DAY THROUGH AND I MAY FINISH A PROJECT, MAYBE EVEN TWO.

Thanks to generous donors....
Within less than a month.....
The family has been able to raise the money necessary not only for the direct costs of Sean’s surgery, but also for the almost $3,000 in other expenses and lost wages the Masters will face.
Praise God on this miracle that the family so badly needed....

Now for the family to concentrate on his surgery and healing.

My first cross stitch finish of 2008 - Angel Tote

This is an angel tote that I stitched.... I am very proud of it.

I searched and searched for the perfect saying for it....

I think I chose a great saying.

This is my oldest daughter modeling the tote bag.
