I am once again trying my hand at tut writing. Lots has happened in my life since the last time I have done this. I have been seriously ill and took a break from writing, from tagging also, just didn't have the energy to do much. On May 3,2010 I had a double mastectomy, and was pretty out of it for awhile. But it was worth it because now I can stick around and enjoy my grandkids more. My grandson was born on May 24, 2010 and he is the best reason to stick around. I had another blog but I moved some pictures around and lost them, so I am starting this one to replace the other one. Hope you all enjoy my tuts.
