^_____^ *many hugs*

My dear, sweet friends! *hugs*

I want to thank each and every one of you who have commented and helped me through these past seven weeks. I love all of you so much! You really are angels to me. So much kindness, I could never thank you enough *hugs* Every time I started to get stressed out or depressed, I�d think of you ^^ I�ve missed you a lot!

Well, I wanted to say that before announcing- I just got my cast off yesterday! I am now (slowly) typing to you with TWO hands! ^^ It�s been so long since my wrist has moved that it�s really sore and still hurts, but I�m taking physical therapy for that! (Oh, and for those who read about my neck, it turns out that one of the disks had gotten dislodged or something, and that�s why it hurt every time I turned, but it�s gotten fixed now ^^b)

I�m really really beyond happy about that right now. ^^ And I wanted to tell all of you that! Your support has really helped and I feel a little guilty that I left you worrying! We could have been hurt worse, and we�ve had so many sweet people looking out for us. *hugs tightly* So, thank you all so much, again.

Okay, so now you know that you don�t have to worry at all, but I�m not quite going to fully return here to TheO and MyO because it still is really hard to type a lot ^^; I�m planning on trying to catch up a bit on commenting tomorrow, but after that I�m not sure. I have a lot of exercises that I need to focus on with my hand now, so that�s keeping me pretty busy -.-;

But, I really want to get back into my normal habits and I especially wanted to tell you this great news about my wrist ^___^ Thank you all again, so much! *hugs* I can�t imagine not having met any of you sweethearts!

Have a great day!

(ps. I'm copying this on my world in TheO for those who don't have MyO accounts)

An Update (and thanks)

Hello, everyone. *hugs* I'm not really back online, my wrist is still in a cast (and, actually, they discovered that there's something wrong with my neck too, but please don't worry about me, its going to get better)

I'm posting this to tell you all how much your comments helped me. I think I must have cried every time I saw a new comment. I'm so blessed to have met all of you and I can't imagine what I could ever have done to deserve such kindness. Whenever I start feeling down or scared, I remember all of you and what you said and I feel better.

Although I still won't be on for what feels like an eternity sometimes, I want to occasionally update to at least let you know that I'm basically okay.

Oh, and I wanted to clear up what happened with the accident. I gave you the wrong idea (please don't be mad at the people who hit us. It wasn't like a hit and run) I would have posted this sooner, but to be honest I didn't want to relive it. But I'm feeling a little better today and, well, here's what happened-

~I was in the passenger seat (Mom was driving) and we were just leaving the town that I take guitar lessons in. We were coming near to the interstate when a car came off the off ramp. They were going too fast and didn't stop for the stop sign. They took the turn too wide and before we really realized what was happening, they hit us.

~Our van stopped instantly, but theirs spun a bit (which, apparently is why they weren't really hurt). I don't remember much about the actual impact. I know I jerked my hands up to cover my face, but I just don't remember falling forward. I just remember falling back. Mom says that its good I was wearing my seatbelt (I always do) because otherwise I... actually I don't want to think about it.

~Anyway, after that my memory is sort of fuzzy. I was terrified and my whole body hurt, but all that I really remember thinking was how scared I was that mom might have been seriously hurt. I had no idea that I had actually gotten hit harder. (which, really, I do think I'm happier it worked like that. I'm so thankful I was the only one seriously hurt)

~Okay, that brings us to where some of you misunderstood what happened. The teens who crashed into us didn't leave. I just meant that they were *able* to get up and walk away once the police came and asked them a few questions.

~Although, it wasn't those two who checked on us. A kind man who saw the crash came and made sure that we had called for help. Then he stayed and talked to us to try to keep us calm until the ambulance came. I'm very grateful to him.

Okay, I hope that clears it up. I want to thank all of you again. I was just so overwhelmed by your kind words and love. You're all such a blessing, I wish I could thank each of you personally, but I'm starting to get frustrated typing with one hand (and I'm afraid I'm just exhausted)

So, I hope that all of you are well and I'm looking forward to when I can return <3

Have a great day.

Hi everyone *hugs*

I want you all to know I probably won't really be on here for two months. My mom and I were just yesterday in a really bad car accident. A car was going way too fast and it hit us straight on

It was really scary and we were rushed to the hospital (the people who hit us were able to just walk away) Aside from a lot of bruises Mom is okay (more or less) But I found out (along with bruises and abrasions) my right wrist got broken.

So, I�m now typing to you with one hand. I�m really upset and whenever someone even meantions it, I seem to start crying. But I know I�m going to be okay, but please pray for my Mom and me.

I want you all to know that you helped me through the tough times. When I was laying in the hospital I kept thinking of you and it helped me stay calm. I love you all so much

But that�s all I�m going to say now. Its hard to type with one hand and I�m getting tired.

One last thing- if youre driving on icy roads, please drive carefully. The other car was going way too fast and that�s how the accident happened. Please please please be careful

Have a great day

Another update

Hi everyone! *hugs* ^___^ Thank you so much for the comments! They really made me feel better!
Kokoro-chan- Your little cousin sounds really adorable! ^__^ I just love children!
Anna-chan- Oops, I guess I should have mentioned what rank I am (I keep missing things when I tell stories ^^;) I'm a green belt with two stripes.(that's about four ranks below black belt)
Damanex-san- ^___^ I celebrate Single's Awareness Day too! lol, it's really great to get to know you more. I'm sure that when you have kids they will be sweet as pie (at least most of the time, after all, kids get into a lot of trouble too ^-^)
Kelsey-san- Yeah, I'm trying to be careful, and I took a painkiller (didn't put ice on it -.-; I've been feeling cold enough)
SeraphimAdrift-san!- *hugs* It's nice to hear from you! Thank you so much *gladly accepts pillows* Your comment left me very smilie. ^__^

o.o Five comments on one post... I'm feeling overwhelmed by kindness! *hugs everyone tightly* Thank you all, again, it really helped to read it when I was feeling down. ^___^

I'm really just posting today to let you know that I'm still around.

When it comes to how I injured my arm, well, the bruise is still really apparent. And, I discovered the next day that I had a bruise on my other arm and I really bad one on my leg and knees. (Well, the knees aren't a surprise. It seems like I'm always getting bruises there XP) But, don't worry, aside from feeling sick again last night, I'm doing a LOT better. ^__^

Anyway, I was suddenly in a very good mood this morning so I went and commented on a bunch of wallpapers and a few cards. (I probably missed a lot) I sort of feel guilty because I tend to skip right over the wallpapers from the series of Bleach and Naruto. I know this will sound strange, but I don't know *anything* about those series. And, it does sort of feel that after a while, all the wallpapers from those series look the same to me. T.T So, yeah, it's difficult to comment on those.

Okay, that was random, sorry. ^^; This is really just a quick post. Just felt like updating ^^; I'm thinking that I might submit a few cards again. It's been a while and I feel a little bad about that.

Well, I guess that's all I have to say right now. Thank you so much for reading this if you've come this far *hugs*

Take care, everyone!

Have a great day!

   Update (and apologies for lack thereof)

Hi everyone! *hugs*

I just wanted to update quickly because I'm not sure how much I'll be on. I'm so, so sorry I haven't been commenting as much as I would have liked, but I've been so busy.

Kelsey-san- Yeah, I should have phrased it better (and I guess I could have ranted longer >.<;) but the Mod did something really unacceptable. But, everything seems to have cleared up, so I'm not going to worry.

I'd respond to the others, but I am completely exhausted right now. -.-; I want you to know, though, how much your comments meant to me. They helped so much with how I was feeling.

Okay, I guess I should explain why I'm not sure about how much I'll be commenting. - I have a really bad pain in my left arm.

That's the short version. Read on if you want to know how it happened. XP I don't want to bore you with too many details. But, lately I haven't been feeling very good. I was so sick on (I think) Monday that I could barely even eat anything (yeah, my family worries when that happens. it was once so bad that I lost waaay too much weight, but that's a different story and I don't really want to get into that)

Anyway, I've been feeling so tired from that, but a happy thing happened today ^__^ I got to visit my dear, sweet, adorable little cousins, Anna and Bubba (from my other posts ^^) I <3 them soooooo much! Little Anna, who used to be so shy that she wouldn't even look at me, ran up to me when I entered the room and gave me a big huge ^-^ And she was so chatty! Although, pretty much everything she said was "Bubba" or "Ebbie" <3<3<3 I'm going to actually be a little sad when she can pronounce my name correctly. She's such a little angel. And Bubba is a real sweetheart too. (Oh! And Uncle told me the sweetest thing! According to him, they talk about me "all the time" *^^* it made me giggle, though I'm sure he's exagerating)

Anyway, sorry for babbling. The point I think I was getting at was that they are bundles of energy and I was even more tired after running around, playing and taking care of them.

Then, to top it off, I guess I've never meantioned, but I'm in a martial arts class (sort of like Karate, only not so much of a sport) Anyway, I had that only a few hours after. I pushed myself too hard, I think. We ended up doing sparring and I was set up against *two* black belts. I survived (and, please don't get the wrong idea, they're really sweet people, but they do push hard) but, in the process, I got hit rather hard in several places and now I'm very sore, tired and feeling a ... I don't even know.

And, I'm pretty sure I'll be even more sore tomorrow. Who knows, maybe I'll get commenting done, but I guess I just felt bad that I haven't updated in so long. *hugs*

I'm so sorry, this was supposed to be short. -.-; Thank you and big hugs to everyone who stayed with me this far! *hugs* <3 But, I'll stop now (my arm is feeling worse)

Take care!

Have a great day!

   I don't know

Hi everyone.

First of all, thank you, Niko Chan for commenting! ^__^ It's good to hear from you again. And, Chibi-Anna-Chan! *hugs* ^__^ Heehee, your comment made me giggle. Just seeing that nickname makes me giggly *^-^* I like both spellings, too. They're both cute. Thank you!

Now, well, I'm mainly posting to sort of rant. I'm sort of disturbed every time I have to accept that someone out there is sort of mean. Someone I know on this site (I don't want to name names) had a bad run in with a Moderator.

That really confused me. Aren't Mods supposed to be really responsible and stuff? I took a look at the situation and I'm really shaken by it. T.T Maybe I'm too naive, but I really don't think that people should humiliate other people.

Okay, I'm done. Sorry, I really needed to type it out. When someone I know is upset, I instantly get upset too. -.- But, I'm sure this will all blow over.

Anyway, I guess I really don't have much else to say. I'm feeling sort of drained right now. But, aside from a few little bumps, I've had a pretty good day. I'm going to really try to be positive now!

^^ I got to see my Grandpa twice today! We always visit him on Friday mornings (and Wednesday mornings and sometimes Saturday mornings XD) AND we got a dvd and had a movie night with him. It was really fun! Lol, he makes me giggle so much. Whenever there's dancing in it (this had a lot of dancing) he makes comments about how I could do the same thing, maybe even better. XD He's a real sweetheart *hugs him tightly* (even though he, and my Mom, and my brother, aren't quite right about my dancing)

Lol, does anyone else do what I do with dancing? I rent a dvd from the library or rental store that has dancing and then I play it slowly, trying to copy what they do. If you have never done it, you should try, it's really fun (its even more fun if you can laugh at yourself every time you fall XD)

Anyway, I hope this wasn't too rambly. I just wanted to end it on a happy note. ^_^ Thank you all so much for all of your comments and support. You're a real blessing in my life! *hugs tightly*

Take care <3

Have a great day! (or evening, or night, or, well, you know ^-^)

   Update ^________________________________^

Hi! *hugs tightly*

First of all I’d like to let all of you know how much I appreciated your comments! I was so touched to see four comments!!! *hugs*- MEAGAN (I know you won’t see this for a while) Children definitely do make days happier! I love my little cousins. ^-^ Your comment really made me happy! Thanks! KELSEY-san- It’s so nice to hear from you! *hugs* I got all giggly when I saw the cute nickname you made for me! I absolutely love it. ^__^ Thank you! Miss SERAPHIMADRIFT- *hugs tightly* Thank you so much for your lovely comment! ^___^ It just made me smile so much! And I like your new quote. Last but absolutely not least- Chibi-ANNA-Chan- Lol, that is so awesome that you’re called bubba too! It’s so cute! ^___^ *hugs* Have a sunshiny New Year! ^___^

Now, thank you all so much for sticking with me for all this time! *hugs tightly* I am EXTATIC to announce that OUR FURNACE HAS FINALLY BEEN FIXED!!!! ^_____^ After seven days of waiting and freezing, the parts came in and the furnace just got turned on. I’m so happy I could cry! ^___^

With that happy thought, I’d like to also say that once our house finally does heat up again, I’ll be trying to catch up on any commenting that I missed. I feel really awful about how I’ve missed several people’s work for so long (this past few months has been crazy) -.- I’m not really planning on making more cards too soon. I have a lot of other things that I need to catch up on now that I’ll be able to feel my fingers.

Okay, I could say more, but right now the furnace is really the biggest thing on my mind right now.

So, thank you to everyone who has supported me! *hugs* You all are such sweethearts and I’m very blessed to have met all of you! ^^

Take care!

Have a great day!

   Happy New Year!

Hi sweethearts!

^__^ I'm pretty happy right now and I wanted to wish all of you a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! *hugs* I hope that this coming year brings happiness and love to all of you!

And thank you so much, Meagan, for your comment on my previous post! ^__^ It made me so happy. I will be sure to pass on your well-wishes to my sister when I talk to her again (she's visiting his relatives right now) And thank you so, so much for your support! *hugs* I can't tell you how much it means to me.

Now for a bit of bad news T.T In my last post I said that a repair man was fixing our furnace (which stopped working) Yeah, well, he found out what was wrong with it. -.- An apparently really important piece is faulty and he has to order a replacement piece.

In the meantime, we can't use the furnace. This wouldn't be too bad if it weren't that we live in a VERY COLD climate. In fact, since Monday (when this thing started) we've had -20 degree weather. T.T So, I haven't been very happy. Tiny little space heaters don't do much for our big, old house.

Anyway, I hope I didn't bore anyone with all that complaining ^^; I just wanted to explain why I haven't been on TheO or MyO as much lately. I'm trying to keep up with what everyone is doing, but I'm still not likely to be fully here until the furnace get's fixed.

Cause even as I'm typing this my fingers are starting to get too cold.

Oh, but I want to leave with some happiness. ^^ Yesterday I got to visit my Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt and their two ADORABLE little children. I love them so much and we had so much fun playing. I can't believe what a good memory little Bubba (it's a nickname for him, they're both under five years old ^^) has. He remembered EVERY game we played last time and insisted we do it all again.

Ohhh! And little Anna (she's maybe two years old) she doesn't talk much. But as soon as I walked into the room she started jumping around saying something that sounded like "A B" Then I realized a little later that she was trying to say "Debby" <3 She's a little angel. (oops, for those of you who don't know, my name is Deb ^^; Gosh, I'm a little bad at telling these stories, huh?)

Anyway, it was a wonderful way to spend New Years Eve and I hope you were all able to spend it with family.

So, thank you if you read this far. It means a lot to me. But I've got to go and warm up my fingers now. ^^;

I love all of you!! <3 Happy New Year!

Have a great day!

Huge Surprises

Hi everyone! *hugs*

Sorry I haven't been on much lately ^^; I've been trying to keep up with commenting, but I haven't really had time to post anything. I thought that I'd have a lot of time after Christmas, but, somehow, I still seem to be busy. -.-; Oh well, I'm in a much better mood. ^^

I'd like to thank everyone who commented on my Christmas card and picture. It really made me smile. And, thank you Tiggerola for your suggestions on my last post. When I have more time I'll see if I can make it work!

Well, a lot of people seem to be posting what they got for Christmas. But, I don't know if I really want to do that. We don't have a lot of money here (it's not like we're poor or anything) so we give each other things we buy at garage sales. The most wonderful gift I actually got this year was a picture my sister drew just for me! ^^ *hugs* And the picture I got through the Secret Santa thing here too, of course.

Oh, but my other sister (the non-otaku one XD) got a bigger surprise. Her boyfriend was here during Christmas Eve (when we open presents) And the last gift was from him to her. IT WAS A RING! o.o I can't believe it. He proposed and (after some quiet screaming and kissing XP) she said YES.

I'm still sort of in shock about that. She super happy, so I'm happy for her, but it's a strange feeling. By the way, she told me that she wants me to be her *only* bride's maid. o.o I'm sort of nervous about that (I don't like people looking at me, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to be in front of a crowd -.- Oh well, I'm really touched)

So, that sort of is the biggest news I can think of... No, wait, oops, there's more.

The furnace died. This morning I just couldn't get up. I didn't know why, but I was super, super cold. Turns out something broke in it or something. Anyway, it's really not good because it is INSANELY cold right now. In case you're wondering, that means below 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

Oh, wait, YAY! I just checked and the temperature is actually going up!!! ^_____^ Okay, I feel better now. ^___^ (And some repair men have shown up. Yay for repair men!)

Okay, I'm sorry this is another super long post. If you've gotten this far, thank you for reading! *hugs* I hope all of you had a wonderful, peaceful Christmas!

Take care!

Have a great day!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to make a quick post to say MERRY CHRISTMAS! (I'm resolved to keep working on MyO since so many people love the site ^^)

OH before I forget, thank you very much Meagan, Chibi-Anna-Chan and Noirassasin for commenting on my last post! *hugs tightly* Meagan- ^^ Yes, I've been trying to rest more. I'm really hoping that after Christmas, I'll have more time to rest. Chibi-Anna-Chan- My sister graduated from College. (I'm pretty sure it's the same as University, but I'm not positive) And Noirassasin- Yes, I was really terrified, but we made it through alive, so I'm happy. And, don't worry, I'll be very careful!

Well, this morning has been crazy... I dragged myself out of bed WAY too late (somehow I managed to oversleep even though I set the alarm AND Mom woke me up... twice -.-;) So, I hurried downstairs and worked more on my drawing for the Secret Santa thing. It's been taking me FOREVER to finish it. I was way too ambitious. In fact, I just now finished it and posted it.

After that (no, I didn't eat breakfast -.- I get really forgetful in the morning and then people get mad at me when they find out I didn't eat) I had to rush to a last minute choir practice. We're singing tonight for Christmas Eve Mass. It'll be lovely, I'm sure. We've done it for several years and it's always fun.

OH! And I'm still well! ^___^ I'm super, super excited about that because I'm ALWAYS sick for Christmas! Now it's so close and I still feel well! ^__^ I'm just absolutely bubbly with excitement XD

Anyway, I'll be doing a lot of praying that the tree at church doesn't fall down like it did a couple year ago. O.o It was a Christmas Eve Mass that I don't think anyone will ever forget. It was SO scary when it was happening, because all the little children had gathered and the front and I saw it from the choir loft as this HUGE tree (I'm talking well over a story tall) fell. Luckily, none of the children were hurt, although Father and Grandpa (he was up front too) did get slightly bruise by the branches.

Anyway, I guess I just felt like sharing that story. I can still see the tree falling. o.o Lol, but since no one was seriously hurt, everyone can laugh about it. They secured it a lot better this year. LOL Father says that the church will have to fall before the tree will. XDDDD

So, we'll be busy all this evening. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up a bit tomorrow. ^^ It'll be so nice to have a quiet, peaceful day!

Oops, this was sort of really long. ^^; Thank you to everyone who's stuck with me this far! *hugs* Oh, in case you didn't see it in your update box, I also submitted a Christmas card I made for all of you! ^-^ Hopefully you'll like it. (Could anyone explain to me how to embed a picture as a link in MyO? I've seen some people do it and it looks really amazing)

Take care and God Bless!

MERRY MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS! *hugs*

Have a wonderful day!
