Evening all
Had my MRI scan and whilst there is no further degeneration and nerves not being trapped I am to expect these flare ups and there is no treatment except painkillers in the form of Tramadol and Morphine. I had no sooner had the results back, Alan had just left to come home when they said I could go home. Told them my daughter would pick me up after she had finished work as it is a 30 mile round trip from our house to hospital and Sarah was closer but she didn't finish work until 5 or just after, they kept coming over to me every 10 mins asking when Sarah was coming in.
I was also sent home with no pain relief luckily I have tramadol and oramorph here at home which my GP prescribes for me for my arthritis. Hopefully I will be back crafting shortly.
Bye for now.

OMG what an awful day
Hello peeps
What an awful day yesterday and today has been, ordered a new phone for Alan online from Carphone Warehouse on Thursday and it came with a free Samsung 2 7.0 tablet but no SIM card, for the phone so rang them up and they said I could get one from their branch at Marsh Mills in Plymouth so travelled the 10 miles to branch queued 20 minutes got to counter and was told they had none in stock and that I would get one in their branch in New George Street which is in Plymouth Town Centre so off I went again a further 5 miles parked the car walked up to the branch, bearing in mind that to walk any distance is quite painful and I use crutches got to the branch queued again for a further 10 minutes only to be told (guess.......) they had none in stock and I would have to go to their branch in the Mall, could feel my blood beginning to boil at this point.
So off I went again got to the Mall, you guessed it queued again but this time they had one in stock, the staff in their were falling over themselves to help me, got me a chair to sit on, offered me a drink and sorted everything out including keeping Alan's old number.
I was shattered when I got home fell asleep in my chair around 7pm and woke up when Alan shook me to say come to bed.
This morning was getting tidied up before getting ready to go over to Rachel's for a crafty afternoon stretched up to put a skirt in the wardrobe and my back gave way so now I can hardly walk or move without shooting pains in my back and down my left leg so no crafting with Rachel today. Boo hoo.
I do have a couple of cards to show you but may have trouble getting them onto my blog as my memory card has broken and I can't get the pictures off it. So am trying something different. my neighbour has asked me to make a couple of plain cards for posting so I came up with these yesterday before I went on my mega trip. Hope you like them.
Well that's it for me for today, have been doing a lot of blog hopping today but will keep checking your brilliant work over the next few hours until bedtime.

Wednesday's Creative Inspirations Challenge #237
Morning all
Only one post today as I am out this afternoon at my daughter's having my hair done, am thinking of going back to my natural colour which is Auburn am blonde at the moment will have to see what the hair dresser thinks am fed up of having to do my roots all the time.
For those of you who are interested and even those who are not lol. Toby burst the balloon by biting it and as it was filled with helium you can imagine what his meow was like for a little while, so funny, the bang did not disturb him he carried on my dragging the balloon around by the string for a while but at bedtime I put it in the bin.
My cards today are both very different from each other, the first is a Christmas Card and I would like to enter this into Wednesday's Creative Inspirations Challenge I have followed the sketch that they provided
for my card I used a Sherri Baldy image and my tonic studio die which I bought in Exeter at Westpoint Show, backing papers are from Bearly Mine , flowers are from stash and sentiment was computer generated.
For my second card I used a mask and coloured in with my prismacolor pencils thought it turned out quite nice very simple CAS card the sentiment was computer generated straight onto card and just added a few peach hearts to add a bit of bling. Hope you like it.
Well am off to take Bella out for a wee, it looks like the heavens are going to open again has gone very dark. Must go to the Shop need to get some milk.
Will be back after I have had my hair done to do some blog hopping may even get daughter to take a photo of my new colour and post it you never know watch this space, it won't be a pretty sight.
