Merry & Joyful

So .. I go to my hand dr tomorrow. There is no doubt in my mind he will tell me surgery is needed for my arthritis thumbs. I got a cortisone shot on June 30th and it only lasted 9 weeks this time where last time the shots lasted 18 MONTHS ... so this is my next thing to do if I want no more pain in my thumbs. Sadly, I need both thumbs done .. right one is worst so I hope to get that done in Sept or Oct. Anyway, I decided to get my holiday cards started and low and behold, I am almost completely done!! I made them easy this year so they went together pretty quick.

I joined another zoom stamping session, this time a few of us on Splitcoast got together Monday night from 8 pm - midnight. I lasted till 10:30 and then went to bed. It was fun even though there were only 6 of us. We hope to do it every other week :). And when I won't be stamping for 3 months (I know no stamping for at least 8 weeks since I think my hand will be in a cast), I can still join in and just "chat".

Only 6 of us were on a zoom call
and stamped but we had a lot of fun 
and I got a ton of Christmas cards
knocked out!

I think I counted 15 done - all in
2 1/2 hours!! I made them very 
easy this year, very little
