Not forgotten you all

Hi everyone, so sorry I seem to have vanished off the face of the earth, I just can't find the time these days to do all I have to do..
I WILL be back soon though I have a few new QP's that I did for Anna over at (Delicious Scraps) that I just have to upload and post so please bear with me..
The reason for my absence is because of my mum's illness, she is Very ill now and we have been told there is nothing more that they can do for her, we are heartbroken, it's so hard seeing what she has been reduced too...Cancer is a terrible illness and I pray everyday that some cure will be found that will take the pain and suffering away...I am there nearly everyday and am shattered when I get back..the only relaxation I can get is my Facebook, it's something I can just get lost in and don't have to think about, thank heavens for Farmville! :-)

so I hope you can understand why I haven't been very active and had no inspiration to create...but I will be back

So please bear with me and keep us in your prayers..
Take care of yourself and each other...
Luv to all..Linda xxx

Well Here I am...with a Freebie

So sorry I have been AWOL, time just ran away with me, we had the kids off school so I was looking after them a lot more, and between that and mum and dad I just didn't have the time or energy to do much online..
For my Birthday on the 18th Aug. my hubby booked for us to go to Euro Disney so we took our two youngest Granddaughters Ellie 4 and Ebony 6, and we had a Blast! they we so Good bless em..it was a real treat to have them along..
I have loads of pictures but the switch on my EHD won't turn on!! I am so worked up about it because I have ALL my Pictures on there from years ago too, some are on DVD's but I have been scanning a lot of old photo's and all my new pics since last year or before that I never put onto disc are on there, plus 240 Gig of Scraps and whatever I have made up to a month ago are on there, so you can imagine I am feeling pretty sick about it just now..and could cry..:(

I have been doing a little scrapping though to relax myself..lol
I did a couple of layouts for Anna over at Delicious Scraps using a few of her Gorgeous kits

Here is one using Autumn Delight

here are 2 using BugALicious

one with MangoLicious

and another using the Beautiful Summer Shine Kit
