Remember them in your prayers and a freebie

It's been three years since Katrina and hurricanes still freak me out. I lived in Gulfport, Ms for five years and evacuated for Katrina and I've been back here in TN since then. I have only been back once...just to see what was left of my former life. We lost everything but, life has been so much better here and things have worked out great for us. Im so worried for everyone on the coast right now as this may be happening again. My sister-in-law still lives there and we haven't heard from her yet. Please remember these people in your prayers. You don't really understand how devestating it is until it happens to you. For a while I was depressed over losing everything but, in the end it's all just stuff and Im still here. I hadn't realized how hard it was on my son either until the other night when he overheard me talking to my husband about Gustav and he said "Oh no, we're not gonna have to move and lose all our stuff again are we?" Of course I assured him that TN doesn't have hurricanes but I guess it still upsets him too.
On a lighter note, I've been working on a Native American themed scrap kit but who knows when I'll get that finished with all the hours I've been working lately. Also, I have several older kits and designs in my 4 shared folder if you'd like to check those out. Sorry no previews. The link is below. In the meantime I've been playing with Ripples Magic again and have some more flowers for you. I think I'm improving...what do you think?

I have a blog!

Well folks, I finally have a blog. I wasn't sure if I should start one with all I have going on. My husband who is 37, is a diabetic. Last year he lost his left leg and back in March his kidneys shut down. My son is back in school and he's not happy about it either. LOL Since he goes to a private school and Phil has dialysis three times a week I carry Jake back and forth and I work a full time job, second shift at a local factory. With all this and finding time for everything else there isn't much time left for paintshop so, forgive me if there are long breaks between posts. I know you'll understand since most you aren't here to read about my crazy life anyway, you're here for the freebies...and yes I have one for you! I made a set of flowers from the one I used in my header. These are my first flowers made with the Ripples Magic plugin. Im kinda proud of them since I had no tutorial to follow. Just kinda winged it. So, without further ado here's the freebie.
