ok..so yes i dropped of the face of the earth so to speak.. here is what has happened...i worked my butt off this summer at the scrapbook store... Lisa did sell the store.. i am not going to work for the new lady.. I am going to work for another store that is opening by the end of this month....My Beloved Nona, passed away on Nov 1st... she fought a long and hard battle.. it was hard to witness.. but i am glad that i spent so much time with her.. she was my best friend!! i have tons of photos to work with, and in the end.. she did pass a way in her own home with my aunt and mother there.... she was layed to rest in New Orleans in her family tomb in a true New Orleans Jazz band way... she would have loved the funeral and the jazz band.. and would have found a way to walk the entire way to the tomb... i am at peace with her passing.. she died with no malice and of pure heart!! and that i a hard thing to do in this world.. thank you to all of you who understood what i was going thru in the past year and a half.. and thank you to those of you who did help me at the beginning of the year...  even if it was just to let me blow smoke!!! i have lost 40lbs!! and several pant sizes... however.. this process will now be helped along with my new crutch in life - i had the lap band surgery on tuesday.. i am still sore.. but am feeling great... can't wait to start stocking the new store... and look forward to want my new weight loss will bring me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!hope everyone has a great holiday sesaon.. and remember... have fun in life and enjoy it to the fullest.. don't sweat the small stuff!!!angela.....
