Taking A Break

 

After several months of ill health, I guess it was inevitable that I would eventually end up in hospital.

I am back home now, after a battery of tests and two abdominal surgeries, and facing six weeks of convalescence with orders to do little or nothing for most of them.

I have decided to take a little blogging break during this time.  Hopefully, if things work out alright, I should be back again around Christmas or New Year.

Keep smiling (the best way to face adversity, and it gives you less wrinkles than frowning!),

Margaret 😊 xx

  4. Oh goodness Margaret that does sound as if you've been through the mill! I pray the next weeks will bring healing and restoration to you. Lying in the sun, with a good book, some relaxing music, and your water bottle at hand sound like good plan. Happy Christmas to you, and I hope we hear from you when you are feeling much stronger.
