Wow

I knew it had been a long time since I last posted but hadn't realized it was quite such a long time.

I stink when it comes to keeping up with these posts, but in my defense at least this time I have some real reasons. In July and August I traveled extensively for work and was intent on ensuring a place for myself in a class this January. That fell through, but I've been strangely ill for the last six weeks or so.

In November I visited my older son and his family in Georgia, and ended up with a horrible sinus infection caught I'm sure from my granddaughter who had one at the time. Unfortunately the sinus infection lead to laryngitis which I had all Thanksgiving weekend. Then at the very beginning of December I caught the flu which developed into pneumonia.

I've been coughing steadily for several weeks and have managed to strain or pull a muscle in my rib cage and my shoulder. I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. The upside is that I've lost a few pounds (no appetite at all). Gotta have a silver lining in there somewhere.

And now it is Christmas Eve. I am so thankful to be able to celebrate this holiday with my family nearby. Despite my whining (thanks for letting me vent) I'm very blessed.

May you have a wonderful Christmas and a blessed New Year!

More to come.

Almost the ONLY upside to being ill is the loss of a few pounds. I do hope you'll soone be on the mend. Thanks so much for commenting on my blog, and I hope your Christmas was merry despite the ailments.
