PLEASE PLEASE IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED A SWAP I WILL RESEND I DO BELIeVE I HAVE SENT THEM ALL BUT ITS BEEN THE MOST STRESS I HAVE BEEN UNDER SINCE ZACHARY WAS LITTLE.THANKS FOR ALL YOUR PATIENCE AND ESPECIALLY TO ROCHELLE FOR ANGELING AND TAKING CARE OF THE GROUPS WHILE I WAS GONE.

HURRAY!!! its not raining anymore. Tristan is at school by himself, the new meds are working!! Still rough but I am free!! (at least not sitting in the teacher's lounge! Bradley is doing fine. the social worker and Police say the case will be wrapped up this week (hopefully) and Bradley will return home with a plan set up for all the parental figures and he will have wellness checkups at home by both agencies for a long time. I am just glad my life is getting back to normal. Its still raining over here.....the cat had her other biopsy and it came back still with the inflammation and an excess of white blood cells that casue granulomas. its common in cats just not in their nose! Also I am now temporary custodial person of my 13 mos old great nephew. he was taken to the er tuesday and social services was called he has a fractured skull.seems fine just has an indent in his head. they immediatly removed him from his mom's custody and he couldnt go stay with my nephew and my sister it was me or foster care. so I said yes (I am NUTS) but he needs to be with family. they will be hopefully finishing up the investigation soon and he can return home. BRADLEY DOES NOT LIKE SCHOOL so DR is going to see Tristan early to try soemthing new i hope.

I OFFICIALLY GIVE UP!!! Tristan's cat has been sick so she had a biopsy a few weeks ago and it showed inflammation and a bacterial infection her nose was all swollen ok great its fixable. Sat i give her her meds and all is good. sunday I go to give her her meds and it looks like her nose exploded!! literally she has a hole on the left side of her nose no nostril any more just a hole we take her to the animal er and the vets response is WOW can I say WOW doesnt make us feel any better she is taken to the specialist and he tells me today he doesnt think it is cancer but it is something bad (took another biopsy) becasue her nose bone is obliterated!!!!! I feel totally gone any stability he has is wiped away. I just want ot roll in a ball and disappear

• A WURZEL SEPP , Karyn got one from her dad when he and Zachary went to Germany and I WANT ONE!!

for those of you who dont know what it is: Wurzelsepp—a bearded head carved into a tree branch. With a note that reads: “Your Wurzelsepp (roughly translated as “root man”), was hand carved in the forests surrounding Salzburg, by a traditional Austrian wood carver.” Through the ages, the note continues, these faces were used to ward off evil spirits. The faces were carved from otherwise unusable pieces of wood (known as wurzels), or were carved directly into the base of a forest tree. Neat. Interesting. Great.

PLEASE NOTHING WITH ALCOHOL OR TOBACCO

I would much rather get one thoughtful item then a bunch of de-stashing things.

I try to look for items that you will like. even in tag items after you tag me I will look in your profile and try to custom the item to your likes.

My favorite swaps to receive are ones that come from the heart. I had someone send me a small bag of polished wood and a letter opener from gayana (think that is how you spell it) I have the pieces in a jar and if I ever get anymore I will add them to it.

One member sent me their first needlebook that they had crafted.

Another sent me some ladybug cookie cutters with a print out of the legends that are associated with them.

a miniature pair of shoes from Holland

another gave me a biscornu and a needlebook both handcrafted just for me

Little things, things for my children make me happy
