Ay ya yay! How did I neglect my friends and our little corner of the world?

I miss all of you so much and promise to come back and be a better host than I have been in a couple of months.

We are officially in the thick of my favourite season (minus the cold wind and sneezing riff-raff). I discovered a few things that made me scratch my head a little. One is that I am half an inch shorter than I was 15 years ago. At this rate, I will be 2.5 feet tall when I get to retirement age. I’ve also learnt that space travel shows died with Star Trek: TNG. Stargate Universe? Blech. I’d rather watch Dr.Phil or stick a fork in my left ear, whichever I fancy at the time.

Life slapped me around a little bit a couple of months ago. I was intensely tempted to drop my drawers and moon it. Instead, I soldiered on and the latter part of October is surprisingly wonderful and I am most grateful.

I will be back with a longer post. How is everybody doing? Better check in, folks, though I will make the blog rounds.

(A., sending you lots of hugs for all your support, sweets).
