Needs A Ribbon in October 2013

Needs A Ribbon in October 2013

My ladies it has been a loooong time since I have sent a sent a newsletter, wish that is has not been so long. Life has been interesting. Read below for an update of what has been going on or skip to the good stuff.

UPDATE: I did go to the Stampin' Up! Convention in Salt Lake this July. I had mentioned that previously. But I had not mentioned that my knee gave out and I did a face plant on the sidewalk outside my hotel. Uncool. The stampin' ladies took excellent care of me while I was there. I have two bad knees which is mostly why the accident happened. 

Then less than two weeks later my family took a 17 day family vacation. It was an amazing experience. We were all over the SW area. Managed to see many sights in between rains and floods and fires. I think a day after we left Manitou Springs there were deadly floods. Feeling blessed that we are OK, and heartbreaking that others were not as lucky.  

Came home from Vacation and 2 weeks later had my injured knee replaced. The knee is named Hank. He is strong and temperamental, much like Hank in Breaking Bad, if you are a fan. I am six weeks out from that surgery on the recovery road. It is not always a smooth road, I am learning. 

I explain all this to explain where I have been. It has felt like a whirlwind some weeks. I have stamped some, but I miss holding classes. I am going to try and put together a modest schedule of classes and offerings. See Schedule below.  I do feel remiss that unless you are heading to my website http://www.sohott.stampinup.net, not my blog http://needsaribbon.blogspot.com , frequently, you have not seen some of the specials Stampin' Up! has had to offer. http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/sohott/jointhefun for more information or call me at 612-280-5590.
