This is my story -- 

I made this for my sister - She HATES Christmas

because she worked in Retail for over 20 yrs.

and saw how customers acted during the holidays-

which turns her stomach -- It's suppose to be

a year of giving, kindness, compassion....

But during the holidays a lot of people seem

to loose that -- So, every year I make her a Grinch

Card or wood piece or whatever.... She loves it!

Hello & Happy Wednesday Everyone!!!
First I want to say THANK YOU to all of you who sent prayers my way, emails, and Super Sweet Comments!! I'm doing okay! YAY!! :)
I'm still very sore, but not as bad as last week which is probably a good thing! :)
I even got a KBD File this week to work on... Don't worry, I am taking it easy too.... :) I still can't sit for long periods, because it's painful on my stomach. Standing feels so much better, but I can only stand for so long before I get tired... Go Figure!!!
I'm getting there... slow and steady wins the race! :)
Knowing that I would be taking a short break from crafting, I actually made several projects ahead of time! That's Right! You gotta know by now.... that's how crazy people roll! LOL
So, Here's what I've created  to share with you today!!!

I soooo LOOOVVE the Big Bang Theory! I
