Bad start of 2009 and some pages!
First of all: happy New Year! I hope you had a great start of 2009. Personally, I did not…
I spent New Year’s Eve flat on my back with severe back pains again. It wasn’t fun, although dh did his best to make it as comfy as possible. He had ordered some food and we all had our dinner on our (new) couch. Something I would never allow under normal circumstances, but it was either that or no dinner for me, lol. It seems like this is going to be a challenging year, because in the mean time all sort of other health issues are bothering me… Since a week, half of my left hand is numb. It could be caused by the problems I have in my back, but the doctor wants me to wait another 2 weeks before I see a neurologist. Since I’m left handed, it’s a pain to write or pretty much everything else. And a tooth in my mouth broke, the second one in a month. And I just heard from the eye doctor I need glasses. Boy, I feel like an old woman.
Talking about glasses, my little girl needs them too. That saddens me, she’s only 4 yrs old and she will have to wear them her whole life long. Ofcourse later on she can always switch to lenses, but there’s no chance her eyes will ever get better. I hope they won’t bother her too much, she’s always so active and a real tomboy and she’s in a gym club, I bet her first pair won’t last very long. And I really hope I can find a pair that does justice to her pretty little face… And that the children at school won’t laugh at her…
Luckily, she is excited about it herself, lol. I just hope she will stay excited once she gets them!
On a more positive note: I have 10 new CT girls! I will add their names to the CT roll later on, but I first want to show you some of the pages they’ve already made!
And this month, I am a guest for MK Designs, she sells at TDC. She makes beautiful kits! I finished my first page with her kit ‘Thoughts’ for her yesterday:
And for my other Ct, Madame Mim’s, I created this one, it’s about my mother:
I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hi Kim,
hope your health problems will be solved soon!
Being confined to the sofa is never interesting but certainly not when you have kids….
Let’s hope you’ve got all the misery of the year bundled up in this short period so that it will be a smooth sail from here on.
And for your little girl, she’ll probably get used to the glasses sooner than you will! Don’t forget you can get money back from the “mutualiteiten” for her (and your) glasses (and for kids it’s more often than for adults).
Take care!
