August 3,2003
(8:55
A.M.)

Sorry for such a spread between
posts
again....my wrist has been hurting
ever since my visit to the doctor...they
did
2 x-rays, poked & prodded, and sent me
for pre-op (since I was from
out of town- to
save me a trip). I will be going back to Rome
this coming
Wednesday to "The Surgery
Center" (out-patient facility) to have
this
gangleon cyst surgically removed.
I won't be put to sleep, but they said I
would
get some "happy, I don't care" stuff thru my
IV and then of course
local anesthesia.
I'm only a tiny bit nervous...mostly looking forward
to
having it cut out because it's been hurting me so
badly the past several
days. My whole right hand
is swollen, and it's very hard to pick something
up
or bend it much. A big thanks to those of you who have
emailed or
tagged asking about my wrist, and sorry it
took me so long to update
you!
I finally got my new hard drive
installed!!!
We had it for over 3 months, and were to scared to try
to
install it ourselves....so I had it installed, and once
my hand heals up from
surgery, I can install my
Wacom Tablet & get to playing!!!
Well,
between stopping to get Leah ready for church
and doing other misc. things,
I've let a whole hour
pass....and I'm starving to death! So until the next
blog...

Well, I am ashamed! Such a bad
blog updater!
LOL! Totally forgot to
let y'all know about my doctor's
visit back on
July 8th for my wrist!
My family doctor confirmed it was a
ganglion cyst,
and referred me to an
orthopedic doctor out of town....who
I go to see in
the morning(Monday)
He will either need to drain it(eeeeeeww!)
or cut it
out(oooouuuccchhhh!)
not sure if he'll do either tomorrow.
Anyway,it's my
right hand, which I
write & type with, so let's hope it
doesn't keep
me away from my PC! ;)
Will I can still type, wanted to do this
fun "get
to know me" thing I found
at
Shawna's blog ....go pay her a visit,
&
while there, check out her graphics
site! She has amazing talent to be so

(9:45
P.M.)

Whew! What a long, exhausting
week this has been, at least for
me!
My hubby was off for 11 days, but
because I don't get any paid
leave or
paid vacation *sigh* that meant that I
not only got no time off,
but actually wound
up working more.......from 6AM to 2PM each day!
Which
may not be anything to you ladies who
work full-time, but I'm used to mostly
4 hour
days....so this left me pretty !
ROFL!
On to happier things: during one of the
Yahoo chats between me, Wendi, Malisa &
Melly, I suprised the girls with my
voice!
I have a microphone headset,
and it was so fun that Wendi
went out
and got one, too! LOL! It was neat to
finally put a voice with
the face...and our
families got a big kick out of hearing us
"talking to
the computer"!!! *giggle*
Well, my new Adoption Garden has been
up &
running well for several days now,
and I should have a few new cuties
added
by tomorrow! And BIG NEWS: did you notice a
new graphic toward the
bottom of my blog?!?
I'm proud to announce that Wendi & I have
become
"sister sites"!!!
Special thanks to our friend Malisa
for
making our cute S.S. graphics!
Poor sweet Melly has been having a
rough
time with someone basically taking her idea,
and copying it/claiming
it as their idea! It's
in honor of Melly that I put this adoption on
my
site....let's all please remember to respect original
graphic artists,
okay? ;)





Leah is sleeping
over again at my
parents, and Camryn is asleep,so I'm going to take

advantage and take a nice  after
I post this! So, until the next
blog.........
Heavenly Hugs,







July 15,2003
(11:15 A.M.)

Where does the time go?!?
LOL!
Sorry for the big pause between posts,
but as you can imagine, Leah's
b-day &
building my new Adoption Garden & moving
pages over to my
new URL has kept me rather busy!
Also, I'm slowly but surely adding my
gazillion pages
of adopted cuties, and collected dolls, like this one
by
Angy Chan:
Click the angel to see my
first page of dolls...
many, many more to come as time allows! ;)
Ok, my
kids are getting restless, & I'm thinking maybe
some playtime in the
sprinkler is in order, so let's
get to this week's


1. Bugs Bunny or Daffy
Duck?
Eehh,
What's Up, Doc?!? Bugs!
2. Tom or Jerry?
Jerry
3. Mickey Mouse or
Donald Duck?
Mickey
4. Rocky & Bullwinkle or Boris &
Natasha?
ummm, neither! LOL!
5. Road Runner or Wile E. Coyote?
Road
Runner "beep!beep!"
6. Sylvester or Tweety?
Tweety
7. Popeye or
Bluto?
I yam what I yam! ;) Popeye
8. South Park or The
Simpsons?
neither
9. Jetsons or Flintstones?
as a child, both..now,
neither!
10. And finally, the eternal question asked by all good

Scooby-Doo  fans: Velma or Daphne?
VELMA!! I pick brains over
beauty,especially
in a Scooby kind of situation! ;)

How funny to end
on that last question,
because Leah got the Scooby Movie DVD
for her
birthday, and the girls just now finished
watching it for the 5 time!!
ROFL!
Well, times a'wasting, so let's all
go have some fun today!
Until
the next blog........

Today is my daughter Leah's
7th
birthday!!! Click the blinkie to visit
her special b-day page =)
In
place of a party, we went
to White Water Park, where the girls
had a
blast...and maybe we had a little
fun, too! ;) After we had as
much water &
 as we could stand {LOL!} we
headed to
Chuck E. Cheese's for  & arcade fun.
Exhasted, all us girls
fell asleep on the drive home.
Luck was with us all day, as the  didn't start
until about 30
minutes after we got home! =)
I'll have some  of today's fun, plus Sunday's
 &  family gathering, posted to Leah's
party
page later this week.
You may start noticing some of
my links
(at least over at my main site)
may not be
working......well, that's
because I am in the process of
moving
all my pages; [drum-roll, please].....
my dear friend Malisa, of
Country Lil'
Creations, is now hosting both my site,
Heather's Heavenly
Hugs, & my blog!!!
Until I finish sending out
all current adoption
requests, and upload my new & improved
adoption
shoppe, my adoption area will be
CLOSED...sorry to disappoint y'all, but
the
waith will be worth it! ;)
I was trying to help my bestest bud,
Wendi,
last night with her blog, and instead got
everything all
screwed up!! I am so very sorry,
Wendi, and hope by the time I get this
entry
published, you'll have everything back to
normal.
I'm very tired, so will probably call
it an
early evening tonight, and plan to work on
moving more pages over to
Malisa's tomorrow.
So, until the next blog.........
Heavenly Hugs,

What a wonderful day I've had so
far...my face
hurts from smiling so big! LOL! Let's see, Wendi
and I both
woke up to find good news in our
....we
both got a precious panda by
Karen @ Daisy Dreams  !!! Woo-hoo!! Mine will
be
available to adopt by the middle of next week,if
not sooner! Then, my
dear Melly
of  helped me
to fufill a wish of
Malisa's....to have her
own froggie adoptable made by Melly!
I asked Melly
to make a special frog adoptable
just for me to give to Malisa...it's sooo
cute!
<---(that's not it, but if you click
this
froggie, he will hop you over to Malisa's
and sometime soon you can see & adopt her
cutie!)
Speaking of Malisa, her son Tyler turned 7 today...
 Also turning 7 this month is my
oldest
daughter, Leah! She'll be 7 on the 11th, and to celebrate,
no party
this year....we're going to White Water park,
instead!


It's sure to be a birthday she'll
never
forget! She's gone to spend the night with
my parents again tonight,
so poor little Camryn
is more quite than usual....she misses her
"tito",
her way of saying sister! Time to pry Sniffy
off my shoes, her
chew toy of choice, and get busy.
Until the next blog........
Heavenly
Hugs,
