A Little Update

Hello my dear Crafty Bloglanders - oooo, I miss you!  Just thought I'd give you a little up-date so that you know why I'm not posting at the moment.

I'm still having problems with my rheumatoid arthritis - the darned thing just won't get better at the moment.  I'm waiting for my new drugs to start but I haven't got a date yet and, boy, am I getting frustrated!? Still, hope to have some news soon.

The current flare is making it really difficult for me to make anything.  I can't colour in the lines with my Copics; I can't put enough pressure on to colour with my Prismas and using a knife or scissors is just hilarious at the moment!  So you can see that it would be pretty hopeless trying to keep up with my usual timetable. 

My design teams have been just marvellous about the whole situation and I can't say a big enough 'Thank You' for their patience and support. 

It's so frustrating not being able to take part in Crafty Blogland but I'm stocking up on new papers and gathering inspiration along the way and I hope that my mojo will be bursting at the seams by the time I get back.

Thanks for keeping me delighted, inspired and entertained with all your lovely blogs - I sit and read them regularly and often and you are all so fantastically talented!  What a great place Crafty Blogland is!

So, keep your fingers crossed for me that I'll hear some news soon.  In the meantime...

Happy crafting!

  1. Hi Peri, do hope you are feeling better soon. Most of us deal with aches and pains as we get older, but I realize yours is a lot more severe. My nephew's little boy, he's 2, has just been diagnosed with some sort of arthritis, so we see first hand how it can affect daily living. Hopefully you get the new drugs soon.

  9. So sorry to hear that your RA is playing up badly - it must be so frustrating for you not to be able to 'play!' Hope the new drugs you will get will sort you out soon.

    Let me know if you want to meet up again sometime for a coffee and a chat.
