For the Bad: I just realized in all the hassle & bustle of my currently crazy life I'd forgotten to get my October 1st Stamping Online project information up on my blog.....Sorry it is late but there is a good reason for this.
For the Ugly: We're moving to Arizona the end of the month!!! My husband retired rather suddenly in May and we have been waiting for the last few months to hear about my back surgery lawsuit. Well we finally heard and the news is
UGLY, the Federal Judge said that even though we had evidence showing that Blue Cross of Idaho had violated their own policies when determining their refusal in the appeal for me to have the surgery and the evidence showed that it was against their own policy and that it was always going to be conducted that way for the kind of surgery I need to fix my SI joint problem,they still have the right to refuse to pay my claim thus they win the case because we did not show enough proof that this was an ongoing issue within Blue Cross of Idaho. So you can imagine since our lawyer had told us for over 2.5 yrs that we had a "slam dunk" case against Blue Cross of Idaho how devastated I was to hear we lost and that even though we proved to the judge that our argument was true it wasn't enough to cause him to side with us........I guess you win some and you lose some. So While I wait to see what else can be done at this time we have decided to move closer to family and get out of the very cold winters of Idaho. Both my husband and I feel better joint wise in Arizona. We are selling our home and getting the items we want to take packed up. This is a heavy task as you can imagine for someone to have lived in one house for 22+ years.
For the Good: Our youngest son past his Bar Exam, has received his license and has moved back home to help us with our upcoming move. For that I am very grateful. We will be living in the Phoenix area and not have to deal with Eastern Idaho winters any longer. I will no longer be working as October 13th as I have resigned from my current position from the private practice where I work as a LPN and will not be seeking further employment due to the SI joint issues I have, not that many doctors would hire me anyway.
More Good: There are 2 sales going on at Stampin' UP. The first is a BOGO Paper Pumpkin sale it is limited to new subscribers only but until October 10th you can get a free month kit with the purchase of 1 month. Here's a direct link to my Paper Pumpkin website and you can order from there 24/7.
https://www.paperpumpkin.com/en-us/sign-up/?demoid=2148942 It's a great time to sign up as you'll be getting not only October's kit which usually has a fall or thanksgiving theme but November usually has a Christmas theme. Last year November had some super cute christmas cards and the best part is all the prep work is done for you by Stampin' Up you just stamp and assemble and you have some cute projects. I made the cute little treat bag above using supplies from the September kit. The second Stampin' UP sale is their annual Designer Series paper sale. Until October 31st if you buy 3 package of the Designer Series paper that is listed at $11 you will be able to use the buy 3 get 1 free deal. This even includes 2 of the Christmas paper designs. You don't want to miss out on this sale!!!
Still More Good: Since I didn't get my Stamping Online information posted to the blog until today I'm allowing anyone who places a $20 order (before shipping and tax) on my Stampin Up Website using the October host code SHECJ6HE by October 20th to receive the October Stamping Online project kit. This kit will be mailed from me to you by October 25th so make sure you DO NOT use no contact or I won't be able to send you out this super cute project kit. Here's a peek at what you'll be able to make with the kit......here's a clue it has to do with Christmas...
I think this months project is super cute and I'd love to earn your business. If you don't have a catalog or if you have any questions please leave me a comment below or you can email me at vicksand99@gmail.com.
