Long time no see.... my bad

Hey Everyone,

I know it's been a long time since I last posted and I am terribly sorry. It is very hectic as a single mother of two young boys. My youngest son, Damien-Cael, has just celebrated his 4th birthday. I am so proud of him. My oldest son, Tyler-Dean, has been making huge strides in his Intervention. He wasn't suppose to be going to The Autism Project (TAP) the rest of this year because his funding had run out, but there was a very special person who has donated enough money for Tyler-Dean to attend TAP twice a week until his funding is reinstated again. I would like to thank that nameless person from the bottom of my heart. It has meant so much to me.

I know most of my zips probably don't work anymore due to the fact that I have let the account relapse. That was my fault for not keeping on top of that. So what I am doing now is uploading all the free kits and bits that I have made so that you all can download them again more easily.

I have been in a creative slump so to speak and I'm hoping to get my groove back. I'm going to finish up a couple of kits that I have start.... hopefully soon and get those posted.

Yet Another Beginning

Well Peeps,

It definitely has been a while since I have last posted much of anything. I am finally slowly regainning control of things and they are slowly starting to look up. Ummm gosh, where do I start.... well I am in the process of getting a divorce.... let me tell ya I'm relieved at that. I have also met someone new. He happens to be the most amazing and wonderful person that I have the honor of knowing. He's sweet and caring and funny and can make me smile no matter how down on my luck I feel. He's going to school for BioTech which is a very admirable profession. Okay well before I get carried away on him.....lol....I'll let y'all know I have something in the works for ya and hope to have it up soon.

*hugs*

New Kit and an Announcement

Hey Peeps,

I know it has been a while since I have posted a kit, but guess what I have one for y'all now YAY!!!!.

But before I post it I just wanna tell you all that we had a blast for Halloween. Tyler-Dean went out as a Pirate and Damien-Cael went out as Spiderman. We were only out for about 45 minutes but they got a good haul lol.

Oh and a bit of pride here, my lil boy Tyler-Dean has made it into the newspaper. He was in it for the upcoming Autism Telethon to be held in our town.

Now for updates on Tyler-Dean's Autism. Well Tyler-Dean had a visit from P.O.P.A.R.D (Provincial Outreach Program for Autism and Related Disorders). They are there to help fine tune Tyler's intervention and his integration into school. They said that Tyler was a wonderful delight to observe and that they had a hard time not interferring with what the Educational Assistant was doing. Tyler-Dean is a very stressed out little boy and has an overwhelmingly high level of Anxiety. So now we have to try and keep an eye out for symptoms of a meltdown and try to prevent them before they happen. That will be interesting.

Now for my Announcement!!!! Well, I have thought long and hard about this and well, Tyler-Dean's funding is going to be cut back from $20,000 a year to $6,000 a year and that doesnt' cover barely anything. Right now he gets treatment 4 days a week for about an hour and a half. When it gets cut back they can maybe get him once a week for an hour which is not nearly enough for him to progress....sooo..... From now on anything I sell in my store at Scrapping Whispers will be donated to Tyler's autism intervention. I will even keep updating you all on how much funds have been raised in his honor. I will also be adding a donation button on my side bar. Please DO NOT feel that you have to do it. It is only there if you feel you want to.

So now onto the Freebie!!!!

This is called Autumn Dreams and Tyler-Dean helped me pick the colors, I hope you like.
