Friends... through the good & the bad

Hey friends... hope you are having a great day!  I'm having 'one of those days'.  I've gone from having a really great day to having a really crappy day.  I celebrated this morning with this as well as finding out that my friends Cheiron and Jocelyn made the top 20 at Paper Crafts' Gallery Idol!  My day went for $#!& when I found out a good friend (younger than me... way too young) has been diagnosed with cancer.  The emotions and expletives are far to extensive to get into... I hope my words of encouragement today were helpful... so hard to know what to say.

My anger management therapy is to make a card for Unity's Friends with Flair and Moxie Fab World's Splatter Challenge.  Pretty basic but even this was an effort tonight... and right at the last minute for FWF.


I was chatting with a friend tonight about how much cancer sucks and she told me about Little Life Preservers, a service which sends cards to women with breast cancer.  It's a wonderful service, by the sounds of it.

That's all I've got my friends.
Take care and thanks for stopping by.
Hug someone you love,
Glenda
