The Last Picture

Tonight I am actually going to do one of the writing challenges. It's been forever, right? I don't get them daily anymore, as a matter of fact, I don't get them very often at all. Don't know why. Then many of the ones I do get don't inspire me much. Today they ask me tell the story behind the last picture I took. I checked, and the last several pics I took were of the last class I taught. I had to send them to a couple of students who were unable to make it. So, it's not much of a story, but I thought I'd share them here to let you all see what we made.
Contact me if you think you'd ever like to join us. We have a really great time.
Also drop me a line if you'd like to be put on the email list I use to let every know my class dates each month.

 I'd love to have you!Tonna

January Class Dates

I am going to have one less class for the month of January since I ended up having a rather eventful holiday season..

To kick it off I went to spend the night at my daughter's house so that I could watch Landon open his gifts on Christmas. (He's two. Who wouldn't want to be there for that!) I was going back out to my car to get my gifts and both my feet slipped from under me and I landed flat on my back on the icy concrete driveway, and my head took quite a pounding on cement.
Once I was able to get up and had gotten inside to get my bearings I went back out stocking feet so I wouldn't slip again. I ended up with a headache that would come and go, but I thought I was okay. It was the same the next morning, but as the day went on the headache got worse and became constant. I was supposed to go to a friend's house for Christmas dinner. The kids left for dinner elsewhere and although I was supposed to go to a friend's house for dinner, I just had to lie down a bit. The headache continued to worsen and I began to feel kind of disoriented. Everything kind of looked and kind of felt like a dream. Eventually I felt like maybe I should check to make sure everything was okay, but I was there alone and certainly didn't want to drive in my dreamlike state, so I called the nurse hot line. They asked me a bunch of questions and told me that I needed to get in to the ER. Luckily the kids came home while I was on the phone with them, cause they were going to send an ambulance! Megan took me and dropped me off at Emergency. So here I was sitting alone in the ER in my pajamas on Christmas. This is NOT how I recommend any of you spend your holiday!

Once I got in they poked me everywhere like a pincushion trying to start an IV.  I have bad veins so all this trouble was not foreign to me, but they even tried a spot near my right breast! That was a new one for me! Another finally had to come in to do it and she ended up getting it on my leg. Also a new one for me. They finally gave me something for the pain and rolled me in to have a CAT scan done. That revealed that I did not have a fracture and there was no bleeding. I just had a pretty severe concussion. Megan returned to pick me up around midnight I think, and that finalized my Christmas day.
 The next day I got myself to the pharmacy for the pain pill prescription and then home to land on my own couch. There I remained in pain pill oblivion, then just as I began to get better I found that I  had caught Landon's bad cold. To make an already very long story a bit shorter--I was not able to leave the house again until Saturday. Today I will actually get back to church. I missed a lot including a New Year's party at church. NOT HAPPY!

So... I got a bit behind in my class preparation. To help me catch up I am going to combine my regular card class and my Stampin Up workshop into just one class. That class will be on
Thursday January 15th at 6pm and the fee is $20
Our Paper Pumpkin Club for January will be held on the 29th at 6pm. The fee is only $5, but you do have to be a Paper Pumpkin subscriber to attend,
Then hopefully all my drama will be over and February will get back to normal.

Drop me a line if you would like to attend either of these classes ASAP since I am working on those kits now.

Happy New Year to you all. I hope that your holiday season has been a little less crazy than mine was.
