LPoCF #260 Polkadoodles

 Hello again, 

I hope your weather is being much nicer than ours, we have been stuck inside due to daily rain, on the days it does not rain it is still too cold to dry the washing on the line. A town about 20mins away had a large sandstone cliff give way, 200,000 tonnes, thankfully not at a time people may have been rock climbing. We are expecting snow in the area, in towns at a higher elevation.

I have a few exercises to do to build my shoulder in the hopes I will be able to manage crutches so I can have my ankle surgery, we have 4 steps to get onto the porch, one extra to get into the house, physio has also suggested shuffling up the stairs on my backside, getting moveable stairs to raise me high enough to sit on a chair, then manage only the step into the house, this will still need a degree of shoulder stability.

On to my card, Today brings us to another all-new Anything goes challenge with my team mates at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by Polkadoodles, who gave the team two digi stamps to work with. I have used Parkie Polar Bear and Theo Penguin to make a Christmas Card.
