Great news!!!!

Well I went to a NEW doctor today. And he read over all my tests and told me that I am going to be just fine as of right now I have to get a pap done every 6 months just to make sure...

But the reason I wasn't getting my monthly friend is because I was not ovulating... My hormones were very low so he gave me some pills to help it come. I don't know if any of you know but it is not good for you to go anymore then 3 months with out having your cycle. It can cause you get get uterine cancer and that my friends is not fun. So I am so sorry if I scared any of you with my bad health post but every thing as of now is going to be ok. And as for all the pain I was in it was my body telling me to get in to the doctor and get checked out I think. That and I have a very small cyst on my ovary.


And thank you all for the nice comments and for all of your support. Oh and I also thank my lucky stars that I have such a GREAT and wonderful husband. I hope everyone of you lovely people can find a soul mate like I did.

thank you for reading this and have a creative day.

Our son loves his Skull Pouch.

This will be short and sweet as I'm a bit pressed for time at the moment, but I just wanted to share a great Etsy shop with everyone.

We got him a black pouch with a white skull on it from tenthstreet over on Etsy.

The quality of the pouch was great and it is quite larger than the picture would make you think. The dimensions of the pouches are in the description for each listing so you'll know the size.

If you have a moment please check out her shop. We think you'll love it.

It has been a long time!!!

Hi everyone this is Erin.

It has been a long time sence our last post. It has also been a long time since you all have seen much of Dave in the forums on Etsy. Just so you all know it is not because he doesn't want to be there chatting with you all. It is because I have been sick and he has been having to do a lot more around the house for me. Like taking care of the kids, cleaning, cooking, laundry, and so on and so forth. What a Great Guy he is....

I don't want to get everyone feeling bad for me but I will tell you a little of what is going on.
I have been tested for ovarian cancer, and cervical cancer. Both have come back that I don't have them. But now I am being tested for some other cancers in that area. The reason being is I haven't had my menstrual cycle in almost 5 months now and I am only 28 years old. I will give you and update on everything when I know what it is for sure.

So now that is enough about me. Lets get down to why I am really writing this. I want everyone in the world to know how GREAT of a husband I have. I have been very very sick. I had broncular pneumonia for 3 weeks and now for the last month he has been going to all my doctor appointments with me to find out why and what is going on with my menstrual cycle not coming. he has also been doing everything for the business including trying to get new products up with very little help from me. I wish I could help him but I can't stand for more then like 20 minutes with out being in pain. So if you see him in the forums and or in the chat rooms give him a pat on the back for being such a GREAT person.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

thank you and have a creative day,
Erin
