Rusty update :rotfl:

Hiya ladies

Just wanted to let you all know that ive just come off the phone to Rusty.
She is still in hospital and so far all they seem to of done is uped her morphine But hopefully her consultant ( well big needle man) and pain management will be getting a kick as they havent seen her yet..
From what she said shes causing the usual Rusty Mayhem :rotfl: and can still still lie down and chat cards as the lady in the bed next to her is a card maker too !!! So all in all it seems as though she is in good hands

I passed on all your loves and best wishes she she knows that we are all thinking of her.

Padingtondoo. Shes over the moon that she made a top 3 and has asked if we can get in touch with all challenge blog owners to see if she can win. As that will make her better :rotfl:

Of course i will let you all know as soon as i hear anything else

xx

I'm hoping multi quote will work this time without me losing any.

Choccy - thanks for the update on Rusty. Hopefully the morphine will help a bit with the pain and that she can tolerate it - OH was on a morphine drip for a week after his stem cell transplant and he hated the spaced out feeling, couldn't wait to get off it. I hope she gets the help she needs soon. How nice to have a bed neighbour who's a fellow card maker, they wont be stuck for conversation!

Sorry everyone this is just a quick question and then I'm off to do tea's bedtimes etc. hope to get back on later.
I've made a blog and even managed to post on it!! BUT I don't know how to link it to this forum!!?? Please can someone help? Thank you in advance xx

Nettie, copy and paste the URL of your blog into your Profile on here as your home page, then tell us you've done it and we can all visit and become stalkers. We're not really supposed to put a link to our blogs in our posts but it's OK to say "I've blogged" and we'll all know your link is in your profile if we've not already become followers.

I don't generally do blogs from here either. I only noticed the other day when Gemm posted about the gorgeous bag card she'd made with the scotties on. It didn't show in my list and then I spotted today that the same thing had happened

The trouble is I'm sure that there are few cards/makes that have been blogged that aren't appearing - I just hope that no-one thinks I'm being rude and ignoring them. I'm really not, it's just that you haven't appeared in my reading list.

If anyone blogs a card and I don't comment, give me a nudge and I'll unfollow and then refollow you. Also, if you have a blog and I'm not following you, please let me know so that I can follow you.

I've also had to unfollow and then sign up again to Gemm's blog, hopefully I'll get the posts showing in my reading list now.

I can't see you as a follower on my blog WBR, at least I haven't spotted your picture or recognised your name.

I've blog hopped this afternoon and left comments. I made a card this afternoon and am just about to blog it.

ETA Wanna-b-rich - just ignore me, you have my blog down on your list of blogs you follow, I just couldn't see you on my followers list!

Thanks Skiergirl I suppose that's what happens when you make cards in the wee small hours - maybe I'm a night [STRIKE]owl[/STRIKE] bat and that explains the upsidedown-ness

Right I need to know how do you manage to buy 12x12 trays from a donkey derby???

I never even thought of that :rotfl:

Oops Gemm I think I had the same problem - the last post I have from you is when you changed your blog. I've done what wanna-b did so hopefully that'll sort it.

Hassy laugh away cos I certainly did. You should have seen his face.:rotfl:

sally is this any use if you look here it show you what they look like when they're finished

choccy Thanks for the rusty update. I can't believe she's still not seen the consultant but hopefully she'll get sorted soon.

Off to blogland (hopefully all gemm's makes will be there now) If I don't comment can you give me a nudge please so I can stalk you.

I'm definately following you, you appear in my reader list and I've commented on your cards. Might cause some confusion cos, my bloggy name is happy days and I have a piccie of DS as Capt. Jack Sparrow.

Choccy - thanks for the update on Rusty. Please do wish her well and pass on our congratulations on her well deserved win. x

Thanks for all the good wishes, the anti biotics have now kicked in and the lotions and potions are easing things, however I doubt that I will get the colonoscopy tomorrow so will have to wait and see.

So many posts I don't think I can do them justice (how do you all manage do you have photographic memories or do you take notes) so please take my hugs and congratulations as required

I have been into blogland and admired so many beautiful makes I really must do my "B" card.
I was very bad today and when I went to get milk from the local shop I went next door to the craft shop (yes its that close!!!) and bought the Hougie board that I decided I did not need on Saturday, eekkk naughty!

Right, gotcha now . I was looking for Captain Jack's pic, as I know that from your blog, and couldn't find it, you're an anonymous grey head on my follower list (how awful :eek:). Like I said, just ignore me, I should have looked at the names not just the pictures . Slinks off, hangs head in shame ...... :rotfl:

Glad your feeling better.

I've heard good things about the Hougie - must admit I toyed with the idea of getting one when I was buying my scoreboard. Can you please let me know how you get on with it as my friend is thinking about getting one.
