My New Blog

I HAVE MOVED!!!

Please come visit me at

Sunday, August 4, 2013

To all who may visit this blog --

First and foremost, thank you for stopping by.

Secondly, you'll notice it's been many, many (MANY!) months since I've posted.  It's been quite a ride for me the last couple of years.  My beautiful baby boy was prematurely born in July 2011.  So I spent much time loving on him and cherishing my time with him.  Now he's grown into a full-of-energy toddler which keeps me very busy.  And to top it all off, in December 2012, two days before Christmas, I suffered a stroke which left me completely paralyzed on my left side.  It has been (and continues to be) a long road -- but I've regained my mobility and much of my strength.

Thank you for understanding my absence from the blogging world during this time.  It is my hope to return one day soon as I launch my newest adventure -- jd designs -- a custom-order, papercrafting venture in which I plan to use my talent and love to design and create custom cards, invitations, banners, and other party supplies for those who may not share the time for or joy of doing it themselves, but still want that custom, homemade look we all love so much.

Blessings to you all,
JD
