Hi Everyone
I’m sitting here on Saturday morning, my time, nursing this nasty cold/flu that seems to be traversing the world right now. And I’m finding the initial ‘feel much better to just get out of bed’ feeling I had earlier today is rapidly disappearing into a general malaise.
So I’m thinking I might not be round the computer much over this weekend. My work is crazy busy – and sometimes just plain crazy – at the moment, so I haven’t even had the time to keep up with everyone’s blogs as much as I’d like over the last couple of weeks, but now my body is further betraying my best intentions in that regard too.
So I may not get to everyone’s blogs as frequently as usual this weekend, or have time to catch up more generally through my Reader. If so please know I’m not deliberately neglecting you!! 🙂
I will try to still be briefly online a couple of times a day to answers any comments from people who read my poems and respond (I have poems scheduled ahead for over a month so two per day will still post even if I’m not around much) and I’ll try to keep up with the weekly tradition I have now of participating in a couple of poetry prompts that are launched on Sunday (my time) each week. But otherwise, it’s a leave of absence for me.
Take care everyone and, as they say in the classics, I’ll be back!!
Cheers
Helen V

Hope you feel better soon Helen. Take good care, and thanks for scheduling ahead so we can still continue to enjoy your poems while you have a break. Healthful blessings to you, H xxxxxxx
Thank you!! 🙂
Take care of yourself and I’ll see you next week.
Thanks so much! 🙂
Feel better helenvalentina!
Thanks, much appreciated!! 🙂
Feel better Helen! Hope you are able to get plenty of rest. See you when you come back.
Thanks so much!! 🙂
Make sure to have Sky sing you the “Get Well Soon” song. =)
Lololol!!!!! I have no voice to do that with…..I will hum it to her!
Get well, my dear Sis. I should probably take your lead. I will be praying for you!! Love u. 🙂
Humming should work. 😉
Thanks! Right now it’s mainly a sore throat and chest congestion, though I am losing my voice so it’s probably settled I for a few days!! 🙂
Take proper rest and get well soon. 🙂
Thanks…my DVD player is getting over worked as I rest!! 🙂
I hope you are feeling better soon sweetie xx I haven’t been keeping up with blogs for a while myself. We understand 😉
Thank you!!! 🙂
I hope that you feel better very soon.
Thank you!!! 🙂
Get well Soon Helen
ThAnk you!! 🙂
Get better soon;) We ain’t goin’ no where;)
ThAnk you so much!! 🙂
Feel better soon. Our thoughts are with you. 🙂
Thank you!! 🙂
Hope you feel better soon. 🙂
Thank you!! 🙂
I am glad to hear I will still get to read your beautiful poetry every morning =) I hope you feel better soon, take of yourself!
Thanks – intend to – just replying to comments this morning then it’s off to rest some more. 🙂 🙂
Rest up! We’ll all be here when you get back.
Thanks Ray! that’s the plan – just popping in to reply to comments then its back to the couch, DVDs and cough elixir for me!! 🙂
Any good movies?
Actually watching DVD TV box sets at the moment – Person of Interest, Vampire Diaries, Justified are on the menu at the moment. 🙂
Nice.
I join the others with good wishes and maybe we all need our bodies to tell our bizzy bizzy minds to cease.
Probably very right, thanks Philippa. By the way, your book arrived a couple of days ago (yay!) and I’m just in the middle of reading a rather long novel, but once that’s done yours is next in line (though I have to admit I’ve been dipping in to some of the poetry within already, and even out of context/order, it is sublime!!) 🙂
I have been sick too. 😦 Get some rest and feel better.
That’s what I intend to do – just popping I to reply to comments, then I’m off to watch more DVDs…I’d go back to bed but I find the nights are the worst and the congestion and sore throat get worse when I lie down…so it’s the couch and the TV remote for me! Hope you also rest and get better soon too!! 🙂
Get well soon!
Thanks, off to the doctor today, hopefully that will help as it is stubbornly lingering on in my system!! 🙂
Hope you’re feeling better. xx
Slowly on the mend, though not much of a voice at the moment!! 🙂
Get well soon..good wishes your way…hugs too. Blessings and speedy recovery
Thank you, very kind, pretty much better now, though the cough seems to hang on long after the rest of the cold party is over, LOL!! 🙂 🙂
Yes it always does as the lungs recuperate
