March already!

been rough going. lots of medical tests to find out what this pain in my side is. been going on over two yrs now and now we're heading for surgery. waiting on approval. they still aren't sure what it is but they'll go in, find out & fix it. then when that's all done, they want to fix both my knees torn meniscuses lol yep it's been a very good year so far :)
so I haven't been doing too much crafting but started having fun with nail painting. there's so much you can do now & it's fun and of course, easy.

and still my Coco needs surgery too but we cant make payments to the vet so we started a https://www.gofundme.com/3e5tfa43 and pray for any help. my boy has had this going on since oct last year. :(

 

hope you enjoyed your visit & see ya soon xo

Happy New Year.

'Tis the season

Almost Christmas!

First I thank you for visiting me still cuz I know posting has been so sporadic. ok now onto the post.
Christmas is quickly coming up and we are pulling out decorations, most for the first time since we moved to a bigger place.  in the other place I didn't really decorate for Thanksgiving but this year, lots got the chance to be displayed, here are just some :)
.
even tho it is the time to give it STILL hasn't been easy for us...more so for me, healthwise. not only do they want to operate on my knees to 'fix' my torn meniscuses AND I have so much pain from an old injury and think I'll need surgery to reduce the pains. it's been crazy with drs.
the van we were blessed with is now giving us trouble with not wanting to start AND our Coco still needs that bladder surgery. been over a month and not one dollar added toward helping us with the cost. so sad to think no one cares enough to donate to stop the dangers of blockage and aid in getting the surgery quicker since the vet wont take payments, which is absurd when talking about a $1500.00 possible bill and no less than $1200. hurts me thinking about him having so many stones, when hubby just went thru bladder stone removal about a year ago and I remember how he complained of the pains.

other that all that, im happy with how well we are still settling in here. still hear some bombing practice which is just unbelievable but somehow im able to tolerate it a bit better than when it shook the house & windows. im still crafting and even made a card for one of my drs that moved to Oregon lol. well I hope to get back before Christmas but in case I don't, I wish you all a safe and wonderful holiday season and if you just feel like sharing this link, I will appreciate it xo

how time flies!

Happy Thanksgiving!

our little CocoBean

we noticed, recently that our little boy goes outside to go potty but not much happens so he went to see the vet yesterday and after paying over $150.00, an ultrasound & xray later we found out he has a lot  of bladder stones and about three in his urethra. some are too big to pass so he needs surgery that will cost about a grand. :((( we did start a gofundme account and hope that we reach people hearts to help us in this situation. it's not like we can wait tooo long to have this done cuz anyone who has had them knows how uncomfortable it is to feel like you have to pee allllll the time. I am so saddened that we cannot just have it done & take care of it right away but it is what it is, we are poor.
it is very possible if waiting too long and he gets a blockage, he will die. so we are trying anything we can to pull the money together. any offers to help will be so totally appreciated, too.

Boo loves to lay in the window too cuz he likes the breeze on his belly. lol silly boy.

things are setting up nicely too... I always had so many nice things that can now be in view & enjoyed.

just to show a very few for now :)
