Dear,
dear Edda and Jude . . .
I am so touched . . . Yes, I
am still in the land of the living. I don't know what kind a bug attached itself to me, but lay me low it did . . . I spent the
whole weekend in bed

, coughing

, sneezing

. . . at first I was slightly amused as I kept thinking of the seven dwarves poem that Lynn had posted a few weeks ago on the "today I'm grateful for..." thread, but as the weekend wore on, and I didn't seem to be getting better, my sense of humor fled. After tossing and turning all night last night I have finally decided to see the doctor, and ironically, now that I have an appoinment this afternoon I'm feeling somewhat better

. . . isn't that the way it goes? My poor husband didn't have much of a birthday . . . I usually make him a really nice supper--frozen pizza instead.
Ah me . . . thank you so much for the get well wishes . . . I'll be back on track in no time (couldn't have said that with any confidence yesterday!).
Thanks again, you lovely, lovely people
with
much love and gratitude to you all . . .
