bye bye appendix

Yes, that is a teddy bear.  My husband brought it to the Rockyview for my overnight stay while I was monitored after my surprise! appendectomy on May 8th.  Thankfully, I'm semi-cleaned up here and have been weaned off the morphine a bit.

It's been a few weeks now and I'm getting there, but I'm still not back in the saddle totally.  Maybe in another couple weeks, if I don't push it too much!  It's been a bit of a bummer not being able to participate in everything I had planned for May, but I guess "better out than in" takes priority over silly little things like plans.

Ginger

at only 4 months old, Dad's new dog Ginger is already huge.  All she wanted to do was carry the bucket.  Nevermind that is was full of water for her to drink and she had to knock it over and empty it first.  Silly girl.  Just look at those paws!  She's going to be a monster!!!

Decluttering

I'm starting up a little article posting spot at www.scribd.com/KennedyInk if you want to come and take a look.  I'm working with Karen Biko with http://www.31daystodeclutter.com/ as well, so you will find the articles will coincide with the decluttering that's going on.  If you feel so inclined, maybe join the challenge and declutter your home.  Feel the call of Spring?  I do.  And that always involved some decluttering.  Karen is taking it to the next level.  Check it out! 

I did my own decluttering of the studio a two years ago.  I hope my renos will be over soon and I can get back to actually doing something enjoyable in my space.
