Happy Bird Day - CK #77

Happy Thursday my friends!  And it really is. It's almost to the end of the week.  I have my last PT appointment today, although I'd sure like to still go. I have to commit to doing my exercises every day, walk 30 minutes at least 3 times a week, and get back into a routine of doing a workout.  Yikes! That's a lot.

GOOD NEWS! Finally after 7 weeks of having a sore throat every day, I woke up on Saturday morning and it was ALL GONE! I went to a throat specialist last week and she took pictures of my throat. It was still all red and irritated and the tonsil base tissue was all swollen. I don't have any tonsils, but if I still had them, I would have had tonsillitis. So I got a prescription for another antibiotic, this time the right kind for what was wrong with me. So good to be all well again. Thank you for any of you who said a prayer and had get well thoughts for me.  I do appreciate it.

So, on to the challenge for this week for Creative Knockouts!  Our theme is Spots & Dots!  So cute.

Materials Used:
  • Image - Drawn With Character - Dancing Spring Chick
  • Sentiment - Whiff of Joy - Spring Sentiments

    Oh, look at that happy little chick! That's so darn cute! Would be darling for an Easter card, too. You seem to have the prettiest collection of flowers and always arrange just the right combination of them. Love that corner piece, too. That is truly great news that you finally are sore throat-free! It must feel so wonderful to be rid of it!
