I know my posts have been more scattered and further apart. I am not even sure how many people actually come here anymore. But if you are one of the few that still do, I thought I'd give a quick life update. The last 5 months have been challenging and emotional. My mom was recently diagnosed with dementia and her husband just lost his ability to drive. My mother-in-law also has dementia and was recently placed in memory care after leaving the house at 2 AM. It was a wake up call that my father-in-law is unable to care for her any longer. My husband is an only child, so it has been just him and me handling everything. We sold their house, had his dad move in with us, and shortly after he caught CoVid. He was hospitalized with pneumonia. He fortunately beat it and is now in rehab for low blood pressure and weakness. We think he also depressed with everything that has transpired these last few months. All the while, we have been trying to work our jobs, bring Cortney home, and fundraising for Misericordia. Needless to say any free time lately has been sparse.
When I saw these cards, they spoke to me.
I've had to lean into my faith a lot.
With a heart of gratitude amid the storms swirling around me.
They were stamped in a waterproof black ink and water colored. I distressed the edges with scissors and did a bit of machine stitching. A gold bow and heart finished them off.
IF you've hung in here....thank you for visiting, I do appreciate it!
