It is an joyful night for me my friends. My heart danced with glee as I heard the whirl of my PC fan sending out its familar hum as I fired up my baby up after such long a time. It is amazing how much one can miss the technological music of motherboards and circuits coming alive to do ones bidding. I have so missed that sound and the time I use to spend splattering my thoughts and feeling across my monitor to share with my Gather friends and family. Though limitations will still apply to how much time I am allowed to let my fingers dance across my keyboard it will be great to return little by little.
I am pleased to announce that my body is healing fine and will return to full functionality eventually. It has been bound, wrapped wedged and pasted to my body in so many places it is an enjoyable feeling to just move about without being restrained by all that. Much to the dismay of the doctors this was all done without a single prescription, everything was Alternative medicines. The process may be slower with these but the benefits of not having "lifetime" medications is worth the time and struggle to me.
Scott and the kids were real champs through the whole ordeal and made life and my recovery very easy. The animals on the other hand made it an interesting adventure of dodge and weave. Had it not been for the "tackle our mommy" incident I may have been back sooner but at least I know they love me! During my recovery I was forced to sleep on the couch as sitting up to sleep was essential to the continuation of breathing. It was a sight to behold in the morning when I would wake to find every animal in the house had found a niche or cranny (and at times my body) to lay in. I have been dubbed the 'beast master" here as it is almost impossible to uproot a one of them from my couch once they have found a place to snuggle in for beddy-bye.
All in all it will be great to be back regardless of how slow or careful I might have to be. I may not be able to get back everyday but I will make it on at least once or twice a week. I have missed you all very much, as well as the reading, writing and sharing my ideas. I have so much to write about with all the upcoming elections and the flux of news that has passed my way. Thanks to all who sent their prayers I am sure they had much to do with my full recovery.

And, such good news of your recovery -- all the more impressive for the way you have kept control over measures and methods taken in your medical care. Along with your political articles, I would love to read a discussion of the natural and alternative choices you made. It never hurts to learn that there are alternative approaches to healing, and how to discuss such things with doctors and nurses. I realize you wouldn't want to hand out advice, but a discussion of research and resources might help the rest of us find a way to discuss things with our doctors, too. We need to learn to advocate for ourselves -- you've already learned how.

Great to hear from you again!
My ears will be listening for those sounds of your brain clicking away at the research you do so well.
Take your time...we'll be here to read!
My dogs have to sleep where ever I'm sleeping and yes they all pile on the sofa with me when I lay down for a nap. I end up either hanging half off the couch or with dog under my legs and head. But I love em.
Hmmm .. interesting idea for an article and perhaps one I will tackle. After rereading this one though I think I need to work a bit on my focus and writing skills again .. lol .. as I see so many mistakes. Time to practice and take my time so I do not sound like an illiterate rambling fool! Hugs to you!
Your sensibility is missed around here.
