Evening all! This week has been like a whirlwind; London trip was a great success and the students had a blast! But, I was glad to get home and into my own bed last night. PoA for this weekend; proof read my previous assignment, start my next (boo hoo) and hopefully, start to decorate a cake lard with a sunset theme ready for an elephant's head cake I have coming up! Happy Friday!

So healing well here I think. I DON'T LIKE narcotics at all. They are taking forever to leave my system! I feel like I have this little motor running inside me, I'm dizzy & a little nauseous. I'm hopping around with the crutches quite well (with all last years practice!) We go camping this weekend ...that should be hilarious!Badages do not come off till next Wednesday. So as the foot heals I'll have to start thinking about the carpal tunnel surgery DOH! Does it ever end! All the while trying to make a living L

Sissy udate: We have now been nine hours with no seizure!! She is terribly weak and fragile still but it's definitely a good sign that we are getting the seizures under control. She's just so tiny and that makes me feel even more helpless. If we can make it thru the night with no seizures I think we will be good. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Here's my little feista/margarita cake I made...

Carla we made it!!! Today was the last day of TX boot camp. I'm not overly keen on this picture (I don't like my pic taken), it was taken after this mornings class. We ran "trains" with the medicine ball, TWICE! Needless to say I could hardly stand up for this picture. Great 4 weeks though! Heading to the dr's to have my foot seen to shortly. Have a great day all!

Hello my little chickas!! Wowza! I woke up to actual heat this morning. For months and months it's been really cold in the mornings. I bet it's already 75 degrees out there. Supposed to hit almost 90 this afternoon. I know we will all be complaining about heat and humidity in a few weeks but for right now I love it!!! I went ahead and ordered some supplies to start an OSSAS project. Don't know if I'll get to come or not but I kept hearing all of you talk about your projects and I just couldn't hold bac

My husband took it upon himself to paint the small bathroom today. I took a picture but I think I will wait until he gets the 2nd coat on and it's all put back together before I post one. I'm still learning to walk with these crutches. ugh! It hasn't stopped me from laundry, dishes and cooking today (darn). Hope you all have a great weekend, it's in the 90's here. Mother nature sure has lost it!

Happy Monday folks! Ready to get a thousand things going. Got my kid's combined b-day party next weekend so I'll have 2 cakes to make for them. Searching for rentals and taking care of all the address changes/utilities switch overs etc now. Good thing I used to be an Admin Assist. I will get it all done. Have a great day everyone!

Boy today my friends I need your prayers. I have been up all night trying to tend to my precious little Brussels Griffon. She is very tiny (8lbs) and has epilepsy. It is normally controlled with phenobarbytal. Last evening about 5:00 she started having seizures and they wouldn't stop. The nearest emergency clinic is nearly two hours away. My vet had me giving her vallium to sedate her. She had ten or eleven seizures before morning.

Evening all just got back in town from some training for work, Janell I was in your neck of the woods down in Budapest this week.

If any of you have a great way of sneeking fruits/veggies into meals please let me know. You can email me if you like...janell.deal@gmail.com. My oldest and I don't eat much, ok, like none and we are in the process of changing our eating habits. More fruits/veggies/soy vs meat, etc. I'm a very picky eater. I've tried holding my nose, closing my eyes, doesn't work. Any tricks would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day!

Morning all. Got some sleep last night. Sissy had three seizures but they are getting milder each time. I'm hoping the increased meds are starting to kick in. Maybe I can breathe a sigh of relief. I fret over my babies as you all can tell. Anyway...hope you have a great weekend. Spread some love!!

Sunset theme

Thanks all! We did, indeed, make it thru the night with no seizures. She's quite a bit better this morning. Still not back to her complete self yet but boy am I feeling a lot better about her future. It certainly makes you put things in perspective. I've been fretting so much over selling this house and when I almost lost her it made me realize how small that is in comparison.

Good Morning Cake Junkies, it is a beautiful morning out there. We had a light frost to put the chill on. Looking at the cafe, I am wondering if people will come in today after going out yesterday. It was a crazy day, but well worth it. I told Mike he was going to the hardware store with me for Mothers Day. I had to return a mirror, facuet and towel ring. He didn't want to buy anything until he went back to see how it will work. He dragged me out of the store screaming get it now I do not want to come back. I

Good Morning Everyone, it is a beautiful sunny morning, just wants to make me smile. Today I have a few cakes to bake and one to decorate for a 16th birthday. Mom wanted all these things on the cake, when I gave her the quote she just looked at me. I explained we all know a can of oil costs $$ but an oil change costs $$, it is all about the labor that goes into the design. She still wants the cake, just much more toned down. Have a great day and remember to smile.
