   It has been awhile, but I have been so wrapped up in everyday life and family,  it is hard to get everything done. I am feeling the pressure too. I have tried to get my rather new diagnosed  Diabetes under control, and it just isn't happening the way it is supposed too. Then on top of that,  I go to the Doctor the other day and find out I have shingles. It sure is making for a miserable month. And then I am having major reconstruction surgery on my leg in Pittsburgh on the 21st. and will be there for a week. Oh , and the medication is making me really sick. Great month so far, huh? Well, on to better things. There are so many great swaps out there,  so I have been busy working on them.  Below is the prize I won from Mary at HOPE FILLED LIVING. ACTUALLY, SHE GAVE AWAY 30 OF THESE PRIZES!!! She is just the nicest person,  and it was so sweet of her. Thank you so much Mary. I loved everything. I have already got my seeds planted and they are sprouting already.


I received this sweet package from  my Secret Blogging Sister for my birthday  and Easter. Thank you so much SBS. I love it, and I am sorry I am so late in posting. It was so sweet of you to think of me.

Hello Dear Linda,
goodness you've had a month, haven't you? I didn't realize you where having all these troubles. I must have missed a post? Will keep you in my prayers dear girl.
You sure received some pretty nice goodies from your friends.
It's still to cold here to plant the flowers I'd like to get growing. Will have to wait till the end of the month and even then we still have a chance at frost!
You take care, and I'll be thinking of you.
hugz,
Sheila

Hang in there dear. I'll pray for things to settle down and for you to get healthy once again. Hugs

You hang in there - I'll put you on my prayer list. Shingles is crazy painful - surprised they are going ahead with any surgery knowing you have that outbreak!

You take care - and if you need anything, please contact me - I listen really well. Not afraid to stick by a friend.

Blessings,
Donna
