Thanksgiving & Christmas-The Condensed Version

Thanksgiving was a very special time for me. As I reminisce even now I vividly remember how grateful I felt to be there, surrounded by my family sharing a delicious meal. I could definitely feel "the love" in the room.

On Dec. 12th I started with a cold. By Dec. 13th it turned into a nasty virus - surely my body would not fail me, but it did. Two solid weeks and two rounds of heavy antibiotics got me through. How I managed to survive that, the blizzard, and a pretty serious plumbing problem, plus pull off Christmas to boot is truly a miracle.

We had a great New Year's celebration with friends, but by weekend's end I started with a scratchy throat. This time it turned into a bronchial infection. Two more weeks of yet another potent antibiotic (Avelox - $210.00) kept me from folding completely, but I was a mighty sick puppy. The result - a fully decorated Christmas tree that is still standing in my living room!

  1. I'm glad you're back on line. I'm one of those who missed your entries. I think you are in Florida now which is a good thing. Maybe not so many viruses there as here in the frigid, freezing North.
    I hope your numbers are remaining constant and you are feeling fine. See you when you get back, for dinner? Be well, Love, Lynne
