or leave a comment on this post....NO PURCHASE NECESSARY....DRAWING HELD ON MARCH 1st, 2008




I had so much fun making this Gorgeous One of a Kind MOSAIC Shelf. I used VINTAGE Rose Plates, A Pink Strand of PEARLS and OLD Vintage White and Off White Buttons. The shelf was painted a PRETTY SHABBY PINK which shows on the top and bottom of the shelf itself. The curved sides have had mosaics done on both sides. The shelf attaches to the wall with screws at the bottom of the shelf brackets as you can see 2 holes on the pictures. I will supply you with two buttons to just glue over the screw holes once you get the shelf where you want it. The shelf measures almost 20 inches long and I will pay for shipping to you. I have signed and dated the back. I hope you love this piece as much as I do and I am thrilled to be giving it away to pay it forward and make someones day.
I GET ALL MY TILES FROM ANNIE at TWINHEARTSMOSAIC. SHE IS AWESOME and TAUGHT ME HOW TO DO THIS...JUST BY E-MAILS!!! Check her out if you get a chance and tell her I sent you.

Now a quick update....I have been offline for 2 days now trying to get my new computer up and running....YIPPY SKIPPY it's WORKING SUPER FAST and I am busy trying to redo the website (better pictures of the Mosaic Shelf are on page 1 of the site) and get everything transferred. I will be taking pictures today and tomorrow and be listing all new items on the site, thank you for HANGING IN THERE WITH ME!!!!
As far as my back, I went to the Neurosurgeon yesterday and everything looks FABULOUS!!! There is probably nerve damage that may never heal and I am just to continue taking Advil or Motrin and not baby it. So, basically I have to learn to live with it. Okay....fine with me...I may be stiff and sore but hey, I am alive!!! And those days I can't take it...I will just have to chill out. HA HA HA...That is easier said than done for me.
I am also getting ready for a HUGE TAG SALE. OH BABY....This one is going to be the biggest one I have ever had. I have too much stuff left over from when I was going to open a shop and it's just not in the cards for me right now to have a physically shop. (Cancer sucks...and makes you re-think your priorities) So, stuff has to go and I will post pictures for you too see it. I am doing this all in-between everything else. Never enough time!!! LOL
ONE MORE THING....EVER SKINNED YOUR KNEES????
Well, My boobs hurt just like that from the tattoo...but they look great and NOW I FEEL LIKE A WOMAN!!!
Here's to a great weekend....All my Love, Amy

~BAD AMY~BAD BLOGGER~

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, who's the baddest blogger of all????
BAD AMY, BAD AMY, I have been such a BAD BLOGGER....PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!
I want nothing more than to be able to sit down and catch up with everyone. I haven't been able to and I am hoping my new computer will be here tomorrow. This one is so slow I don't even want to be on it.
I found out this morning that Joanna, of Moss Hill lost her mother suddenly last night. Joanna was getting ready to go see her Mom in Southern California and had just talked to her on the phone the night before. Please say a prayer for her!!! I can't even imagine having to go through that. My heart goes out to her and her family.
I have been awarded so many blog awards and fun get to know you games that I can't even remember how to add them to my blog. Also, IF I HAVE MISSED ANYONE on my blog that has me linked but I don't have you....PLEASE EMAIL ME and let me know!!!
My MRI came back and there are no herniated disks or anything like that....YIPPY SKIPPY!!! However, I do have to go to my neurologist on Friday to see about going to the pain clinic and doing some physical therapy. I will do ANYTHING to stop this constant pain....
TOMORROW at 9am (Wed the 20th)....I GET MY TATTOOS......I AM SOOOO EXCITED...THIS IS THE LAST AND FINAL PHASE of my RECONSTRUCTIVE BREAST SURGERY......Doing the HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY DANCE that is for sure!!! Of course I will share pictures with you and post to let you know when I have them.
I am almost done with the GIVEAWAY MOSAIC.....IT'S A PINK SHELF and I am just waiting for the grout to dry and I just might have to add a few more details because it's just needs a little something. I will post the giveaway just as soon as I get my new computer up and running!!!
PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR BEING A BAD BLOGGER....BAD AMY BAD AMY....I will try to get with the program!!! I MISS ALL OF YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!! I just hate not being able to catch up and see all the cool things you are doing.
Love and Hugs to ALL of you, Amy

~ANOTHER SNOW DAY~ My MRI~

~WAITING FOR A ROBIN TO SHOW UP~
Well, the kids have another snow day....we got hammered once again but thank goodness we didn't lose power. Some others in the area did 3600 households but not us!!! YEAH!!!
This means the kids will be going to school until June 5th....Wish they would stop the week long Spring Break, Thanksgiving, and Easter breaks. They would get out at the end of May if they only allowed a couple days during those breaks instead of a whole week off. Oh well, what can you do.
I am hoping to hear from my doctor today (if his office is open, everything is closed right now due to the snow storm) if not, I will hear tomorrow. I just want this pain to go away and yes, the medicine helps but it makes me higher than a kite and I fall asleep just sitting in the chair. (it's quite funny as I will be in mid sentence and I fall asleep....Everyone is laughing at me)
So, I will keep you updated. I am still waiting for my new computer and I so want to get those Easter Treasures on the website but this old computer won't let me load the pictures. So sad it's finally going and going fast.
Have a great day today and I will let you know as soon as I find out what's going on with my body now. Someone said the 40's are GREAT.....so far, mine have been far from great. They also say, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. I should be a GLADIATOR by now!!! LOL
Hugs and Love, Amy
