-=>I distinctly overheard Valerie Murphy say to Wanda Guin<=-
   Valerie,
 VM> What are you working on now?  I've not done any crafting in a week
I have been gluing wallpaper onto an old frame, with a picture of angels
that are also wallpaper.  I plan to make one to go in the church building,
and one for me.  I hope to find some old frames at garage sales this
summer, to make some Christmas gifts with.
   
 VM> Actually I've been sick on and off since last May.  This time I have
 VM> been suffering from the effects of antibiotics given to me in December
 VM> for a bacteria I had.  Now I have some kind of colon problem.  It's
 Oh no!  I've been hearing things about antibiotics, that our immune
 systems are getting immune to virus' because we take so much anti.
 VM> I finally got to a gastroenterologist and he diagnosed me and gave me
 VM> some medicine called "Flagil".  If I thought I was sick before was I
Haven't heard of that...
 VM>  If this medicine works I'm supossed to get back to my normal self
Or at least someone you like, huh? :)
 VM> So to answer your question I haven't been doing anything for several
Me either.
 VM> days. I just got some energy today and I made a bookbag for my friend
 VM> for her birthday.  It came out cute.  I used stenciled letter and wrote
 
 This sounds so cute!
 VM> days making a card (about a week ago).  I brayerd it so that the top
 VM> was blue and the bottom was green.  Then I put grass on it and then I
 
 VM> work and to be truthful, it didn't turn out that well.  I didn't really
 I hate it when I spend so much time on something, and it just doesn't
 come out looking like what I had in my mind.  But, even trial and error
 helps us to learn what to do and not to do.
 VM> enjoy making it.  I like to get in there and make a card in one day.
 VM> Three days is a waste to me.  I think the only time it would be worth
  I like short projects too, something I can see pretty quick.  Otherwise,
  I'd get bored with it and never finish it.  I know how I am!
 VM> I admire people that can do Victorian cards and spend so much time
I can watch someone do a project, and try to duplicate it, and it never
turns out as pretty.  I love the Victorian "look" on things, too.
  
 VM> week I teach my first Beg.RS class and I have my 3rd SU party.  I hope
 Wow, you're busy!  Good luck on the RS class. What is an SU party?
  
 VM> even figured out what to do for either of those things, or what
 VM> supplies I need to do them.
 Once all that's done, you can sit back and enjoy teaching, huh?  The
 getting ready part is the pain.
 VM> Keep you fingers crossed for me.  I really need to get well NOW.
 I do hope and pray that you will be feeling much much better soon!
 Good luck with all your projects. :)
 take care,
 Wanda
