Beautiful Orchids

Good evening everyone. Looking at my blog things look in a sorry state this week, dogs, flowers lots of negative medical stuff (sorry for that) and a distinct lack of anything crafty. But I felt I at least owed you all an update on things, as despite me not visiting any of you for days, you still come here and leave me lovely kind messages of support which really have meant such a lot with everything that has been going on this week. It's more than I deserve for being such a bad blogger, so thank you all.

Things went reasonably well yesterday, now it's a matter of waiting to see if it has worked and getting the stitches out. I am in some pain still, pretty phased with medications, eating what constitutes baby food and can talk very little.......the family have never had such an easy run of it and all seem in good spirits, can't imagine why.

I just have to share a picture of the beautiful orchids that were delivered to me this afternoon from a friend and her husband, thank you so so much both of you, what great mates you are. They are absolutely glorious and I have never seen so many blooms on one plant, they will provide weeks of enjoyment.

At the moment I really don't feel like crafting, or anything come to that, but as Scarlett said "after all tomorrow is another day", so lets take it a day at a time and I might surprise myself. My Allsorts and Rosie Deeds DT work is scheduled so will be popping up over the weekend. And next Thursday - that's 1st October, By the Short and Girly new challenge kicks off, cardmaking, scrapbooking and any craft that takes your fancy really, with some fabulous sponsors with prizes every challenge, so go to my sidebar and click on the link. I expect to see you all popping up there with your creations.

And finally I am pleased to say Bernie is doing really well, eating again and the vet is happy with him. Animals are so resilient, we really should take a leaf out of their book.
