Dragonfly Card & No Voice
.
I couldn't face going into work early yesterday so I made this instead, for a work friend in another office. Much more fun than stooopid work.
I felt the return of a little cold a few days ago and then I lost my voice the last couple of days, off and on. I never knew if sound would come out when I opened my mouth. It was one of those things where I sounded way worse than I felt. The novelty of it wore off yesterday - it was very annoying. I felt like I was a little sleep deprived, a little dehydrated maybe, pooped from a busy week at work and now no voice?? Not fair. Thank God it was Friday, is all I could say.
I stopped to pick up dinner at the new Salvatore's near us - their calzone (I always choose ham & pineapple for my filling) has turned into one of my favorite comfort foods. Steve and I watched a little TV and when he switched over to the Syracuse basketball game, I really started to fade. I managed to hang in there until 8:00, then went to bed. I admit I watched craft videos on my iTouch for a little while but I was still asleep by 9:00.
Naturally I woke up early this morning, Saturday, feeling almost right-as-rain. My voice has returned - still a little froggy, but much better. It will be a 3-day craft-focused weekend for me and being a morning person, I love getting an early start. I'm off to meet Pam for breakfast at 8:30, stop by Mom & Dad's for a minute, then back to my studio.

Love the dragonfly card!
I love it when my voice sounds horrible. It makes it much easier to call in sick. :) Unfortunately, being sick hardly ever affects my voice.
I always expect what image are you going to put in your posts and the result is always my wow face. I love all your cards!
I call it my "Lauren Bacall" voice. Love the dragonfly!
GORgeous, as usual! And forget about the voice. Just have some hot tea with lemon and honey and curl up with a good book. :-)
Hope you feel better soon!
You are a craftaholic! I admire your dedication to your work. I don't get 1/100th of the work done that you do!
Love the dragonfly card! Gargling with warm salt water works wonders.
