Now I'm into 2009

Now we're into the middle of February 2009. So much for trying to update my blog in the 2 weeks we had off over the holidays. Sigh.

What am I doing so far in 2009?

Well, I'm remodeling my hobby room. My husband just put in a new floor for me. I want to make my room a really pretty place to work in.

My health has been okay. Sometimes dealing with MS is a pain in the behind. The medication I am on makes me extremely tired. I've been using the treadmill and trying to eat healthy, though.

My mom had to have emergency surgery in January. That was scary. My parents are both healthy people. Our family hasn't had to deal with much in the way of major illness. My mom bounced back pretty quick though. I was surprised seeing what major surgery they did. We almost lost her. That feeling is terrible.

I've been swapping quite a bit on Swap-bot. I've met some very friendly and talented people on Swapbot. It gives me something creative to do. I love seeing the fabulous work of other people, too.

Oh, and I've been buying supplies and stuff again. I took a break from buying paper crafting supplies a while ago. I purchased a couple Cricut cartridges, some Cuttlebug dies and embossing folders and some border punches. Valentine's Day creativity pretty much slipped me by since I'm so tired, but now I'm trying to set a goal of creating at least one new item per day (or at least get one item almost done per day).

Well, I guess that's it.
