I'm alive!

Hello all my long, lost Internet friends!  I am still alive, in case you were wondering...

I have thought of you all often, but haven't had the energy, nor time to post for a while.  As I posted a while back, things went a little crazy in our town a few months back.  My husband and I were very blessed to have a small amount of damage to our home, but his truck ended up being totaled by the tornado.  Long story short, it took forever for us to get our insurance money on the truck.  During that time, we were down to one car, which doesn't work out so well when you work different shifts that over lap!  The insurance company came up picked up his truck and the very next day, my car started messing up.  We found out it needed a new alternator, so then we were down to ZERO cars.  I am a worrier (as much I'm trying not to be...) so this threw me into major panic mode!  Thankfully, my dad let us borrow his car for a few days and fixed my alternator.  In the meantime, we were looking for a car to replace my hubby's truck.  As we learned after a couple of weeks, there wasn't much selection because so many people had to buy cars after all the storms we had.  

Over the last 3 weeks or so, I feel like all I've done is look online for cars and go to car dealerships (I think I'd rather have a root canal than deal with a car salesman).  After several frustrating weeks of no good deals, we went to Dallas yesterday and I came home with a new car! Woohoo!!  I have wanted to sit down and craft so many times but haven't really had time because in the evenings we were doing the car thing.  

Although I don't have a card yet to post, I am so excited to say that I plan to sit down and craft tomorrow.  Hallelujah!  I haven't touched my Cricut since before the tornado on May 20, so I'm having serious withdrawals.  I figured until then, I could try to get back to normal with Font Friday.

Here's a fun font for you...



You can download it HERE.

I'm so glad to be getting back to normal.  I really have missed you all!  Hopefully, I'll finish several cards this weekend and have them ready to post next week.  Have a fabulous Friday!!

Blessings,
Cheryl

  1. So pleased you're seeing that bright light at the end of your dark tunnel Cheryl! If you read your own blog post, you will realise that everything turned out OK in the end, (which it usually does my friend). I look forward to seeing what you make tomorrow! xxx
