Good morning guys and gals. Hope that you are all well.
Well, my goodness, this post has been an absolute nightmare to create. It has obviously been a while and I had clearly forgotten what I was doing with editing, adding text, making sure that I had saved images as JPEGs instead of PDN files, having to clear cache and cookies, then change my password as I'd forgotten the last one.
I was ready to give up and play laptop frisbee!!!
Anyhoo, 2 hours later, here I am finally.
As some of the cards I will be posting were made a while ago, I will try to be as accurate with ingredients as I can. I dedicate this Thank You to you all for coming back to The Pond.

A wee update with me. When I last blogged properly back in June 2021, I was 6 weeks out from an op to sort out my arrhythmia. Unfortunately, it didn't work 😥 so I was back to feeling somewhere between not well and bloomin awful.
I couple more cardioversions put me back in rhythm for short periods but 2 years ago I was offered a newish hybrid ablation and I agreed.
Unfortunately, during the tests, they discovered the AF had caused an issue with one of my valves so I would need a repair or replacement. Still waiting for that to be done, delayed for various reasons.
As I was in quite a state with the AF at that point, I had yet another cardioversion nearly 2 years ago and thank heavens, I'm still in rhythm and feeling quite well, all things considered. That won't last if they don't do the surgery soon so I may need to chase them up.
I've also had 2 lots of eye surgery last Summer and thankfully, all seems well with that.
On the upside, my foot care business has gone from strength to strength and I'm working 3 days per week and am in the fortunate position to be able to refer people to someone else as my books are pretty much full.
That's pretty much the short version (I can imagine you all thinking, "how long is the long version then?") as I can't remember if I had the gallstones last time, as they rear their ugly heads now and again.
Mr Duck and The Girls are well. Lily and Molly are 6 now. Have no idea where that time has gone.
Mr D has dropped to part time now so we get Fridays off together.................as you can imagine, he's absolutely thrilled by that 😀.
Nesta and Davey are both happy and well and Flash is still in residence across the road, although his wife has taken on that role of late................I'll save that for another post!!!
That's me for now. I need a strong cup of tea to get over today's Blogger experience.

Hi Ang, it should as though you've been on quite a journey with your health and haven't got to the reset to original settings button just yet. Hoping they sort you out soon - chase them!! Great to hear the update on you and all. Sweet card. WakeyL
ReplyDeleteHi Ang,
ReplyDeleteoh you poor thing such a long time to wait for surgery and all the problems in between must be very frustrating for you and MR D.
This means you can't plan anthing too far ahead while waiting.
Great that your foot business is thriving.
I have a lady who comes and does my feet every six weeks she is great as I am sure you are as you have to pass extra work on.
Thank you for the update on your friends.
Your card is very beautiful and such a super design too.
Thank you also for dedicating it to us for visiting you again, wouldn't miss your designs for anything.
Lots of crafty love and hugs. Jenny L.
