I’m so excited for fall and Halloween. I love corn mazes, hay bales, pumpkin pie...all things fall. And I also absolutely love crafting and making decorations. So the blog homework for 10/5 from @missy and @rambo is perfectly fitting. I made this cute little wreath for my front door from materials I got at the dollar tree.

At first I wrote my own memoirs and poetry of my experiences, but now my much needed medication pretty much kills all my creativity. So now I cope by following my friends via facebook.

Crohn's, and cancer will not beat you.
