Darlings, Remember in March when the 82 year old driver collected me with her 1989 Toyota Camry as I was crossing the road ... well the saga continues? XRays showed my right arm wasn't healing. Back to hospital for another surgery, a new heavier plate inserted, nine fat new screws, a healthy dollop of fixative and the magcal addition of a protein powder to encourage the arm to make me 'bloggable' again! Now six weeks on ... Doc says not to 'sling the sling' that holds my arm aloft, strangles my neck, constricts my shoulder ... healing's taking longer. I constantly remind myself how fortuntate I am. How I'm alive, with a beautiful family, with a sense of humour, and it's only my arm ;) Those who know me get my frustration ... as an inpatient, intolerant, Virgo, typing lefthanded isn't a consideration ... BUT I needed to let you all know ... I loveyouse all, miss so many of you and am sending truckloads of wishes that we 'shut the gate on 08 and shine in 09'.
This blog's about a maximalist, renaissance womans' quest to re-fabulise fabularity from collected, scrounged, rescued, inherited, fossicked and acquired hordes that others regard as waste! A self taught mixed media artist, this late bloomer, includes quirkyness, frustrations and opinions to show life's too short to be precious or to take everything too darn seriously!
Making every post a winner, creating something out of 'nothing' and turning my excess creative stash into cash make my life bliss!
