A Short Leave

Good Morning All,
I guess by now you've noticed that I have not been posting regularly  these past two week.  I've been working more than usual hours and are much too tired to make anything when I get home.  It's tough when you retire and then go back to work.  I don't know how I did it for all those years. I just fill in for my co workers when they are out on vacation and it seems like they all took vacation this month.   Now I won't be posting for another period of time.  I'm leaving tomorrow for California to help my cousin who is going through some serious health issues and at this point I need/want to be with her.  I have no idea how long I will be out there and there is just too much to bring to with me to be able to make cards while I'm there.  You know, WHAT?? do you bring?  There isn't enough room on the plane for all my crafting stuff.  LOL.  My plan is to bring some select markers and stamped and digi images to color and that will be all I get done.  Then when I come home I can get back to making some cards, hopefully.  I am hoping to have time to stop in on everyone's blogs while I'm gone, but if I get too busy some days and don't get to it, please understand.   I wish you all a wonderful day filled with sunshine and health.
