Five years ago , I was hit head on in a terrible car accident . I have gone through some major surgeries that have left me in terrible chronic pain and to be quite honest, sever depression. I am now disabled. Along with other things I fight in my daily life since childhood, PTSD, ADHD, severe migraines , Anxiety disorder along with the chronic pain and depression I felt like I was drowning and hitting rock bottom. If I didn't find something to do with my days beside sit in my chair I was going to die, literally. In October of 2012 my youngest daughter moved out and I felt I had really had nothing left or no meaning to my life so I had to do something.
One day in Late october I was surfing the web and found an ad for a scrapbooking crop here locally that I became REAL excited about for I had not scrapped in over 10 years! I had stopped to fight breast cancer and ovarian and basically to raise my kids and just never went back to it. I thought, This is my chance to do something I love and give back to my kids.
My oldest daughter said she would go with me since I also have agoraphobia and was deathly afraid of going to the crop alone , especially since at that point in my life it had been over a year, if not two, since I had left my house to go ANYWHERE besides a doctor appointment. Needless to say I had a BLAST!!!!! I won my first cricut there and scrapping has become my addiction!
I am now into SVG's and you can not stop me! I love them! I hope everyone will follow along on my journey as I try to hone in on my skills and get better.
This is my life and I scrap for the ease of my pain and I SCRAP FOR TRANQUILITY!
