The Last 2 Years *WARNING this is a long post

Where do I begin...In October of 2015 my feet started bothering me.  I was under a lot of stress.  I would get out of bed and barely able to walk.  It would subside then I would go to work and before you know it my feet were aching again.  I couldn't even make it through a store without being in terrible pain.  I went to a podiatrist which I trusted (which was stupid) and he gave me 6 steriod shots and a steroid pack wishing 4 weeks.  I noticed my feet burning and turning red, throbbing in spots and hurting way worse than what I had gone in for.  2 years later, 15+ specialists and that 1 podiatrist did me in! It triggered autoimmune diseases not just any autoimmune that most people hear of but a RARE one, of course me the one who the bad things always happen to.  It was the perfect storm! I had a woman that was trying to make my life miserable, work, family, heartbreak, and injections that started this nightmare called Erythromalagyia and possible Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.  Fast forward 2 years and 6 mths of no sleep....I have finally found a concoction of medications that have helped me to cope a little better.  Summertime is very hard bc the heat makes everything worse....but I am a fighter...its called the "man on fire" disease or I've even heard them say its the "suicide disease" because the pain is so intense that well frankly no one wants to live through.  I am a fighter! I have a family who loves me and wants me well so no matter how bad I feel I will move forward.

In the meantime, I have successfull put on 2 crops and designed many kits and even decorated doors for Christmas.  How have I done this you ask- by the GRACE OF GOD!!!  I have struggled doing all of this but I have to help to keep my family afloat.  So a woman has to do what a woman has to do.

Doors I created last year:















Kits I've created and sold out of:





















God has been good, he has given me some trials.  I may have to live with the struggles of burning feet and face for the rest of my life but I will do it best with a smile on my face.  I want to THANK everyone for your support during all of this and being patient with me with kits and the crop.  I will post some pics of the crop under the crop tab.
