October's Here!

Phew! How long is it to half term?? OMGosh, I am soooo tired right now - my body clock is telling me it's time to gather food and go to bed for 3 months, and I certainly wouldn't have a problem with that!  The new term only started 4 weeks ago and already I am shattered!

Well what a week I just had.  I got a phone call last Tuesday from Middle School asking me to come over to look at my son's foot.  He'd apparently had an accident playing cricket and they thought he probably needed to see a doc.  So I shot off and sure enough he DID need to see a doc!  As soon as I saw his foot I could tell he'd broken something, but when I got him to the Minor Injuries dept, I was really shocked to see a huge lump under the ball of his foot.  X-Ray revealed the most horrendous thing I've ever witnessed - his big toe had dislocated and was sitting UNDERNEATH his foot!  ARGH! I nearly passed out!  He has also got two broken bones and a fracture in the big toe.  I've never been a cricket fan, and I can't see him wanting to take it up either!  Mind you, he was worried it might impact on his drumming, but thankfully he's managed to keep that up.

Anyway,  here is my latest card offering.  I made this one for one of the team who's birthday it is tomorrow, and I used the Magnolias Down Under challenge for my inspiration.  Their theme this week is Pink, White and Gold - gorgeous colour combo and I loved making this - I hope you like it too!

That's my lot for the moment - see you soon and thanks for stopping by! :o) xx

    What an adventure you had with your son, not a very nice one... I hope he is doing better right now and wish him well!

    Thank you for your nice comment on my blog! Also a big thank you for becoming a follower. I don't have many followers yet, so I am very happy with every new follower.

    I am sorry for the loss of your beloved Rosie. It is hard to go on, but we have to for our other pet(s). But I'm sure Rosie will be in your heart forever, just like my Boelie is in mine.

    I also really appreciated your comment on my blog about my lovely Frenchie, Boelie! I am sorry to read you had to go through the same thing one month ago with your Rosie... its always terrible to lose one of your pets. Especially when you had them around for a long time.

    What a story about your son! I hope he is doing better now. I wish him well!
