One of the highlights of this past week was the opportunity that I had to take art classes taught by Debbie Schuh. "After teaching school for several years and then working as a staff designer for Anna Griffin, Inc., Debby now has a busy schedule teaching at scrapbook stores and events both in the US and abroad as well as doing freelance design work. Her classes at CKU (Creating Keepsakes University) for the last seven years have inspired hundreds of students across the country. She has had many projects and articles published in books and magazines and is the author of the book Kids Scrapbooking…Easy as 1,2,3.
Debby specializes in designing projects full of interactive elements and design details. She teaches innovative techniques step by step so that her students leave class with a beautiful finished project.
Debby is blessed to be able to do what she loves…travel the world and meet wonderful people, do a little shopping along the way, and share her passion for scrapbooking. You can read more about Debby on her blog at www.debbyschuh.typepad.com." excerpts from Crop-Paper-Scissors!
Then I had an entirely different experience on Tuesday--I had some outpatient surgery on my neck for skin cancer (25 stitches). I am thankful that it went well.
To make me feel better I had a whole bunch of Pecan Sandies, my favorite cookie, and Chai Tea. I'm sure that's what the doctor ordered. Next week I have to go back for the final phase of this round. Wish me well.
I offered a prayer for you Marti. And I have to tell you that when I visit here, your picture pops up and makes me smile every time. Thank you for that!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Debbie
I too will pray for you. Glad you had fun taking the class and pecan sandies - hmm - like that name for some reason. Sandie♥
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it all went well for you....we like Chai tea, too.

I love pecan sandies! I will pray that everything goes well in regards to the skin cancer. Take care and have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think you're off to a speedy recovery with the cookies! :) Praying the next bit goes well!
ReplyDeleteWell, the cookies look delicious! Please know that you will be in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteBless you.....

Yes, just what the doctor ordered, cookies! Hope you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look like heaven on earth! I've had a couple of basal cell carcinomas burned off...thankfully, no stitches were needed. Of course, I have to keep a very close watch of the situation from now on. Hope your recovery goes smoothly!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your operation and hope all things go well. That's a lot of stitches! I will keep you in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words! You are so sweet and such an encouragement to me!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your surgery went well and will pray for you!
Oh no! I'm so sorry about your surgery. I do hope things are ok. Pecan Sandies and Chai sound like a perfectly reasonable pick-me-up!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your always so interesting comments on my blog. I always smile when I see your name pop up!
Wishing you a speedy & complete recovery!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Marti, I certainly do wish you well. You sound like me as I treat everything with food and pecan sandies sound like a great medicine to me. Keep us informed.
