Pink Saturday and a blue egg....

Hello all my Sweet pinky pals!
this has been a long hard week hubby has been very ill, we even had a nice 7 hr trip to the ER, miss Icy Soda POP is finally getting better after 4 weeks and I completely threw my lower back out to the point of crawling in pain... But we are gonna make it thanks to a wonderful family. My Bro and Mr. Fire Snail have kept us a float with cooking, trips to the store, running food and meds up and down stairs and doing laundry. I just am so grateful for these special boys! And my mom who in spite of working full time manages to stop by after and check on us and willing to do whatever we need. 
We are very blessed!
Here is an egg I created for a swap.




Yah I know it's not all pink but the butterfly and the bird's cheeks are.
Here is one of the finished letters for my Cousins baby girl who has a 9 letter name PHEW!
And an Ocean themed nursery....
Thank-you so much Miss Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for being our gracious hostess!

HAVE A LOVELY PINK SATURDAY!

GLITTER

Glitter Glitter Everywhere even in my underwear. Seriously!
Glitter has boldly gone where no man has gone before!
Glitter on 3 floors of the house
in five sizes!
a peek at an almost done project with the largest of the glitters on this one...
this is one of those things you only do for someone you really love!
As I told a sweet friend this week and I quote (myself)
"I have a sparkly crack!"

Maybe a little TMI but you understand, right?

Have a fabulous day!

Pink Saturday? ha, I forgot to sign up!

Oh what a week of catching up on sleep
(even if it is after 2 am, you know who you are ;P that's doing good for me!)
and giving my kids lots of attentions since they were both coughing and sniffing and 
feeling yucky over spring break :( still are, we were supposed to go the cherry blossom festival in San Francisco but it is looking like a no go as of right now, there's always next year....
 I did make something last week though,
but you only get a little peek for now!
Have a lovely day, Pink or not, hee hee...

SOon I promise

Soon I will
 post pictures from Christmas and EASTER
and my mom's 60th surprise party
and UPDATE and MAKEOVER MY BLOG!
Been spring cleaning away and catching up on missed sleep.
I have CFS and if I push too hard for too long Jen goes bye bye for 6 - 18 months
SO I'VE BEEN TAKING IT EASIER.
I learned my limitations the hard way, 
I know how much I can handle, this has been with me for 21 years now.
Hubby is such a sweetheart to help me out when I need him, I couldn't do any of it without him :)
Been doing a lot of work in the ole noggin' though,
wonder what will come of all that,
I bet it will be glittery!
ok, can you guess who and where and under what? hee hee

Have a lovely day,
