My Absence

Please pardon my absence on line. Sometimes my illness get the the better of me. I’m able to sit up now at the computer for brief periods of time and expect to be back to myself in another week or so. This time it was a severely infected throat, which the lupus wouldn’t let heal followed by the temporary loss of the use of my right hand. You can’t make this stuff up. Hope all’s well with you and yours. Susan

This Astonishes Me

I realized today that I have absolutely no reason to get out of bed. If it wasn't for Herman needing to go outside and then be fed twice a day I doubt I'd get out of bed at all. It's astonishing! I was go go go for so many years - college college work work work and suddenly it all came to a grinding halt and here I am am. Standing still.

I went to check my email and there were 3 requests for grant searches. Since I don't believe in coincidences I've got to believe that the universe is speaking to me...rather loudly. It seems to be yelling GET UP!
