Thinking of You Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik "Above The Dirt" with CTMH Blue Skies Special

Hello Friends!  I actually managed to go for an hour long bike ride yesterday.  It has been almost 3 months since I was able to ride, due to COVID-19.  It was such a nice feeling, of having some control over my life.  I know it is an illusion; but it still felt good.  I wore my mask; but removed it when no one was around.  I have a terrible time breathing in anything that covers my mouth and nose; due to my lung issues I have had since childhood.  It's worse when trying to walk, talk or exercise with a mask on.

There were more people out than I thought there would be; and many who didn't have a mask.  We all have to do what we think is best; but CA is under orders to wear a mask if going in public around anyone, besides family.  I have to try and follow that rule; even if other's are not doing it.  


Here is my latest purchase from Ching-Chou Kuik "Above The Dirt" which I fell in love with the minute I saw it.  I tried coloring her hair in black; but it took all the pretty design away that CCK made in the hair.  I then tried it in brown's; but it didn't look right to me; so I decided to go bold with pink.  LOL!
