HOLD ON TO UR HATS!!1 It's getting windy again. 2 more storms are to come in. It got dn to 30's with a chill factor. Last wk we broke a record@ 78F. That's El Paso for U.
Gut is feeling better. This is enough motivation to stay on the GF diet. Had to eat up my cache for the blood wrk last w/end. The Shredded Wheat w/bran tore up my gut.I had to eat another batch of egg custard. I didn't really enjoy my treats. We did go eat a Gyro before I went back on my diet.
Played w/my clear stamps today. I got out Laura's new spring stamps.The markers wrk really nice. I try clear embossing pwd. on the bright colors. They really glow.I wished I had tried clr pwr. before,I can get so some many colors that emboss. I tried denim d/pad w/ the clr.pwd,it really stands out. I also tried putting different color marker on the clear stamp after the 1st stamp was made. An interesting variation on color happened. I'm trying to get a feel for the clear stamps. I used a CD case for a big stamp,a tip from Scrapbk.com .Also Itried a bottle cap for a small flower stamp.
Want to do some fall stamps w/my clear stamps for my s/bk pgs. I'm on my 3rd section on the layouts for my mission s/bk. I did 5 more LO's

Down to 134lbs today. Went to GI doc. Got to my back to my doc,derm doc,check out a spot on my leg been there awhile.More lab work ordered.
A hard wk,my friend Paula Harrison died of cancer last July. My 3rd friend,b/in-law died of cancer. Paula still had 2 t/age kids @ home. She &I raised our kids together in A.F, Utah,served my twin dau's as a leader in YW org. of the LDS church. I just talked to her a yr ago C-mas. I didn't get a card from a friend I known for 23 yrs. I finally connected w/her today. She has lost her foot from cancer. She had skin cancer,stage 4,now is stage 1 due to a cancer diet. She's a widow @ young age ,Kurt died of lung cancer. She can't use cruthes go d/stairs. Charlee is another survivor.
I did 9 s/k pg's y/day,2 more started. Finally got started on doing my mission s/bk from 35 yrs ago. I have made pockets for journal entries,s/bk, the 1st part of me leaving Texas for SLC,Ut. Working on s/lites on my companions. As missionaries we had to stay 24 hrs w/our companions,no TV,n/papers,radio,dating or movies. I spent 1yr in BC,Canada,6mo's in Alaska. We pay our own way and don't hold a job down . It was an interesting experience,h/light of my life. I made some gd friends then. I'm so glad I went. My body is in the trash can now.

A Sucess
My brag book for Mom G was a sucess. She liked it. I made a special section for her @ the end as a tribute to her
El Paso,very warm
We had the front door open yesterday. It was 80F in the l.rm. Really strange. Hate to see what sunmmer heat we'll get. Never really wore my sweats
Allen surprised me. I found a s/shirt in my drawer w/him and the dogs in his lap. Good pic of him I wore it Fri. to doc's office.

Katya' altered box done
To keep busy before the test I made Katya a rock box for her b-day. I used pink,purple Mulberry paper. It took 3 layers,so the cigar box writing wouldn't showup. I Modge Podge some Hello Kitty stickers and cut out b-flies on it.I don't think the box is going to fall apart any time soon . Inside is a polished rock collection I gave her.
Now to come up w/an idea on how to display my seashell collection for Emma for a gift?
Made my friend Swat an Oriental card for late b-day. She called yesterday and said it's was so beautiful. Stamped up a bunch of Oriental images for later use. I finally got out Heidi's borrowed Oriental stamps and my new clear Oriental ones to stamp . Some I embossed to make them look elegant,others I used red ink on black paper since the Chinese use alot of red in their images.
Some I want to go back and color in w/ my pencils on details. I want to make up a set for a b-day gift and another to use myself
