Well, I am dealing with some bad crap right now...I AM THE QUEEN OF MURPHY'S LAW! well anyway, I do not want to discuss it right now, cause it really PISSES ME OFF, and I am trying to turn things around. If that EFFING HAPPENS, then I'll talk about it.
I have literally been in the same sweats or nightgown from last Friday night til this morning, and basically didn't do anything but a little web surfing, TV watching and sleeping. I've been in a really dark place plus, super anxious!
I am still quite under the grips of my depression, and still anxious, just not as bad. I think my cat having a bad abscess and me trying to deal with it on my own (hot compresses and trying to drain it) have made me get out of my own head space a little bit.
Today I took her to my vet. I have been going to the same vet since I was 16 and THANK GOODNESS...as he let me come w/o paying...I'll pay on Jan 4th when I take her back for her overall exam and shots. He shaved a large area around the spot, and gave her her rabies vaccine, even though hers is still good for a few months, he said better safe than sorry. The Doctor gave her a shot (Thank goodness) of antibiotics that will be in her system for 2 weeks (I freaking HATE trying to give cats medicine!!) Then he FREAKED me out, and told me, to be on the look out for any movement under the skin around the "hole" as it may NOT be a tooth hole from her cousin. The doctor says there is this kind of fly that has grown in numbers recently, and stays alive longer than it used to...it will bite an unsuspecting animal and then turn around and drop it's eggs or whatever into the "hole" it made. I said that is a big hole, he said it didn't start out that big, it is because of swelling. it may just be a incisor tooth hole, but it could be this fly. FREAKING AWESOME, just something else to look forward to, fly larvae growing under my cat's skin! ARRRGH gross!!
Ok, let's get off this ride...
over the last 2 days I have made 2 pieces of art, and started 2 others. This first one is a 4 X 4 I made for the challenge over at
SMUDGY ANTICS "Mourning Glory" = graves... and as usual, some stamps of some kind, and try to use a
SMEARED INK stamp.
I used a collage image of mine of 2 old graves, and 2 digi stamps by SMEARED INK, the broken winged heart and the word Broken that goes with it. I used them twice, and used foam dots under one set on top of the other. Coloring with BIC Mark its! and red German Scrap from COLLAGE STUFF.
Here is "Heart Broken"
This next one is my VERY FIRST double Easel card! I made it for the
Technique Junkies fun folds CD Blog Hop! By trying this technique and adding it to
Pat's blog (the owner) you give yourself another shot at the grand prize! part of that prize is a LIFETIME TJ membership! WOOT!!!
I like it, I hope you do also!
