IT'S FANTABULOUS FREEBIE FRIDAY ONCE AGAIN HERE AT BON SCRAPATIT DESIGNS!!!
>> Friday, April 25, 2008
I won't stay long tonight as I am still recovering from my CT scan Thursday morning!!! PHEW! I really had NO idea what I was in store for, otherwise, I would have better prepared myself!
Having had an angioplasty preceded by an angiogram three years ago, I should have figured they would be shooting dye into my veins at some point!!! But, NO! I've been SO busy with everything else, I failed to do my homework this time around!!! I ALWAYS do my research so that I am privy to any given procedure, etc. It surely helps to better prepare oneself, eh?
Anyhoo, I had to swig down a bit more of the "yummy" milkshake upon entering the x-ray room and had a WONDERFUL chat with the x-ray tech!!! Funny how I just seem to chatter away no matter where I am!!! ROFL! She was a VERY delightful young lady and we talked about raising children, the world as it is today, what it might be like for the children inheriting it tomorrow and, OF COURSE, digital scrapbooking!!!
I felt very weak afterwards. Luke and I stopped off for a visit with Mark, Jessica and Kaleb!!! He was in he living room in his bassinet and looking SO sweet! I don't think I can think of better therapy at this point-in-time than holding my grandson. Yes, I did take more photos!!! I'll try to post a couple with your FREEBIE tonight. If I don't get them up, I'll do so tomorrow.
When I arrived home, I went straight to bed. I told Luke that I felt as though I'd been beat up. Pretty much the way I feel when I go into a FIBRO flare-up, which it very well could have been. I slept all day, got up when Robert arrived home from work and could NOT drag myself to the computer so I reclined in the living room and watched a couple of movies with Robert before going back to bed for the night.
I was awake shortly after 8:00 this morning, but only lasted about an hour and a half or so when I climbed back into bed due to some serious nausea. I tried to drink as much water as I could, but kept feeling sick plus I had a whopper of a headache. I very rarely get headaches so I took some Ibuprofen and it wouldn't touch it. Hmmm ..... where oh where did the day go??? I slept it away, but I have to say, it felt good to do so!!!
I should get the results of my scan sometime next week and I will let you all the GOOD news as soon as I have heard!!! How's that for positive thinking!!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU for all of the NEW additions to the slideshow today!!! Y'all just know how to make me smile and it definitely helped to lift my spirit when I was finally able to sit down and read some e-mails and to work on another "scrapatit" for y'all.
Tonight's "scrapatit" is a bit more simplified. I figure since MOST all of you have *Saturday in the Park*, you can add your own touches to make it yours! I hope you like it - I went with a red, yellow, white with a touch of brown theme. I just LOVE the red grungy blossom background paper and wanted to do something with it! I scrapped a couple of photos of the "oldest" of my "youngest" children (he, he ... yes, twins!), Luke who became the proud owner of his VERY first car this past January. I think you'll be able to read the journaling as it best describes my feelings upon my youngest two becoming adults this past year. (If you click on the image, it will enlarge it)
Wishing y'all a BEAUTIFUL weekend with your loved ones and I thank y'all for your positive thoughts, prayers and well-wishes. How can I not get a GOOD report!!!
Love and hugs,
Linda
