Your comment here will be lovely and I enjoy the heck out of them, but it will not count. It will only count on Theresa's blog.




ETSY!

Did I tell you I have an Etsy store? http://www.etsy.com/shop/mariesegal
I am still working on things and trying to get everything in order. If you have any questions, just let me know.
I have to do something with my creations or my husband is going to kick me out!


This is why I have been so absent, well that, and a gall bladder attack, Madi getting sick, depression, fear, doing my web pages, and just life in general.

  2. Marie,

    I just wanted to let you know I've been thinking about you lately.

    You asked for "words of wisdom." According to my grandfather, "Tough times don't last, tough people do." I secretly think you have the capability of being a "tough ol' broad" when pushed too far. Don't let anyone push you around. I'll bring the sugar if you supply the lemons and we will have some butt-kicking lemonade.

    Big Hugs,

    Pam Jensen aka Mousefingers

  8. Marie, your gift arrived to day and it is even better than I had hoped! It is so packed with detail in this little piece, I am amazed that it is so small, I'd expect it to be as big as my hand although I knew it wasn't. You are very gifted. Thank you so much, I want to do something for you someday. I hope you are having a good day.

  33. Hi Marie you may or may not know that I too hadnt been around for awhile since early April . I was so sorry to hear about your Gall bladder trouble.
    Please Marie get the darn thing out. I was exactly like you til I had it out in June 2003 ( My DH died in July 03 so you may see what a year that was for me, as he went into hos as I came out.
    Anyway I have never looked back since I had it out.
    You can do without it, so stop putting yourself thru all that dreadful pain.I dont know whether you did get it out yet?
    It is a keyhole op here and you recover quite well after.I had to recover and have my DH in the Hosp dying at that time.
    I think that is why I am so resilient now.
    Nothing phazes me as you may know.
    I havent been on my blog as I said and that has been because I had Cateracts taken off both eyes. and Wahoo! that is all over, I have the best peepers now. I thought I could see before, but this is amazing, and I have lost the distance glasses too, so LIFE'S GOOD!
    Ok see you soon, and Congrats about your Etsy you have such a lot of great stuff. I hope you do well
    Do the L's Good thing Marie XXXX
    love
    Elizabeth K.
