Update

Thanks, everyone, for your kind words. Your support during difficult times means the world to me. My little one is hanging on, and is even acting like her normal self. We had a great morning playing together and hanging out. I am monitoring her closely and making sure that she isn't in any type of pain or discomfort. From what I can tell, she's quite content at the moment. I know, though, that her time with us is limited, so I'm just thankful for everyday I have with her.

I've been such a bad blogger lately, too, and I know it. Between being sick last week, the air conditioning going out AGAIN, and a whole host of other pitfalls that aren't even worth mentioning, I've been in a creative funk. We will return to our regularly scheduled programming once the universe decides to treat me nicely.

I did perform one task that can be construed as creative. Last night, I mounted two sets of unmounted rubber stamps to some EZ Mount and cut them all out. Whew! That was quite the job. Took me about an hour and a half. My poor fingers were totally sore and my back was killing me after being hunched over for so long. Does anyone else find mounting and cutting unmounted rubber stamps a royal pain or is it just my perfectionist ways that make the task take such a long time?

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Stay cool, and send some mojo my way :)

Glad your little one is on the mend....what's with your aircon...I feel for you. We don't have aircon here & in summer when it is 40deg C I can't function, let alone be creative.
Hope your day is going better?

Enjoy that fur baby! The only unmounted stamps I have dealt with are SU. They aren't that hard with the scissors they suggest. Takes a while still though and yes my back aches, but it is SO worth it.

Sending some Positive Mojo your way! I forgot to ask before which one of your creatures needs our extra special thoughts her way?
I have done one set of rubber stamps that way and did not enjoy it, it was definitely a pain and it took me forever!
