Things I hold close to my heart


The past couple of days I have done alot of thinking. I am feeling much more at ease now, my nerves have settled down. As I was resting yesterday I felt such a peace and was thinking about the things that mean the most to me. That is what this page is all about.

I am so grateful for the outpouring of love and kind messages I have received in the past week.

I truly believe that is why I am feeling so calm right now. I feel like I can get through this (even though I am still afraid). Its another week till I find out the results of my Biopsy, but I am determined to focus this week on the things that mean the most to me, and to keep occupied.
Today I treated myself to a couple of new CD's to make my week even better :) I am a real music lover-mostly independent bands, so thought I would get some CD's from some bands that I don't have anything from. I always play music while I do my arty stuff :)

Kristy,
I haven't checked your blog for a few days. In catching up I see that you are dealing with another stressful situation. I am so sorry you are having to go through this. Today's art is a great reminder of the love that surrounds you. I take a bit of peace from it myself - beautiful, as usual :-))
I want you to know you are in my thoughts and I'm sending all my positive vibes your way. Please be sure to let all of us know if you need anything - and I do mean anything!!
Blessings to you and your family

Kristy, I think your peace comes from the knowledge that what will be, will be. You'll take this all in stride. I'm hoping for the best of test results, and that this feeling of peace continues. Hang in there!

Hey Kristy,

I've been away from the internet myself for a few days, as I've been going through a rough time too. I stopped by your blog to get cheered up by the beauty. I was so surprised by your news. I'm very sorry that you are going through this. You will be in my thoughts, and I'll be sending you as many good, healing vibes as I can. If I can do anything for you, just let me know; I'm in the RAA membership directory.

Do let us know how you're doing and what the results are. There's a lot of love out here with your name on it!

This is such a beautiful page. I think that when we are going through a stressful situation we forget the things that mean the most to us. The funny thing is that the things are what gets us through. You still continue in my prayers. It will all work out.

Hugs, Debi

I just checked in and saw all your posts - I'm so sorry that you're going thru this! I can definitely say that my art has saved my sanity and helped me thru some extremely trying times. It is a great way to work thru all your different emotions and also a great escape. As for music - do you like the Raconteurs? I LOVE the latest cd...can't stop listening to it. http://www.theraconteurs.com/
I'll be thinking positive thoughts for you. Oh, and your art is gorgeous and inspiring too! :-)

Such a beautiful page! I'm glad you can find some peace through your art. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

BTW, I got Breaking Dawn today and will start reading it as soon as I finish a project I'm working on. I also got her book The Host, which is the beginning of another series!
