National Friendship Week -- My Friends are the BEST!!

    I just found out today while working on a challenge card, that this is "National Friendship Week".  Did you know that?  

   To be honest I didn't know there was such a thing, but it think it's a nice idea.  Some times I thinks it's nice to be reminded of how special friends are in our lives and to me, my true and closest friends are VERY much the same as family to me.  I have had some of my friends all of my life and that too is very unique and special.   I'm fortunate to be blessed with so many friends, some local and others spread out across the country and even a few overseas.   A whole world of friends!

  I found this quote that I have always loved and thought it would be the perfect quote to share --

 "Many people will walk in and out of your life,  But only TRUE friends will leave footprints in your heart"  ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
