Zo stil op mijn blog!
Maar er zijn wel projecten die ik af wil krijgen en zo ook de "A year in Cards class" van Kristina Werner op Two Peas. Ik had veel moeite met augustus maar september was een makkie. De vormen van het spookje en van de pompoen krijg je erbij als PDF dus downloaden en printen maar. Kind kan de was doen. Over wassen gesproken, mijn nieuwe wasmachine is net afgeleverd. De oude is er na 15 jaar mee opgehouden. Er kwam roestig water uit toen ze deze uit de kelder wegreden!! Dat ik nog schone wassen heb kunnen draaien. Als mijn nieuwe nu ook 15 jaar meegaat ben ik een tevreden mens.
My cards for Kristina Werner's classes on Two Peas. These are the cards for August and September. The ones for August gave me a lot of trouble. The ones for September were super fun to do. You get a PDF file with the class for the ghost and pumpkin shape.
Jack ligt weer in het ziekenhuis. Voor de derde behandeling. De MRI van 2 weken geleden liet niet veel verschil zien met de MRI gemaakt voordat ze met behandelen begonnen maar men spreekt over een stabiel ziekte beeld. Hij verveelt zich, hij mag de kamer niet af en er mag ook niemand langs komen. Gelukkig heeft hij Internet en kan hij een beetje surfen. Maandag mag ik hem weer halen.
My husband is in hospital again for his third treatment to make the tumor in his breastbone smaller. The MRI taken 2 weeks ago doesn't show my difference with the MRI taken before they started the treatments but they say it's a stable situation. He is rather bored as he is not allowed out of his room and nobody is allowed in. I call him about 5 times a day. I'll go and bring him home on Monday.
