New scrap space

Hey everyone.......
       Well our son is all moved out...it feels really odd..I've tried to
make a positive out of it by moving my scraproom to the basement.
We have a modest 3 bedroom bungalow with  a partially renovated
basement.our son had a fourth room down stairs..
I've taken out the rec room and turned it into the scraproom....
a work still in progress....some pics below ...
I had just a small 9x12 room upstairs so now I can actually have
friends over to crop yay..lots of work yet to be done but here is the starting
pics...
also in the last 2 weeks my father in law has been in the hospital diagnosed
 with bowel cancer..had  bowel removed and a colostomy /poop bag
put on which he is not dealing well with..who would..
The hospital is 2 1/2 hrs away ...so long drives...
(he had it 30 yrs ago had surgery then  and again 18 yrs ago...
so very luck in reality to still be here all this time --now 84)..
It's been a rough few weeks but he has been lucky because they got it all
and he is recovering...prayers do get answered....
so no new crafts.... but new scrap space pics instead...
big hugs to all...
have a great thanks giving weekend to all my canadian friends...
Brenda
