so......

(three little ones left...and the gaggle is back together again)


we're still here

it's funny how quickly one can get into a habit

and how quickly one can get out of a habit

and I ain't talking

nuns....

(the babies got out of line so the gap is where they were)

Goose River, wider than a ( half) mile,


I'm crossing you in style some day.

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,

wherever you're going I'm going your way.
(and I'm bringing the camera)

Nineteen drifters off to see the world.

There's such a lot of world to see.

We're after the same rainbow's end--

waiting 'round the bend,

my huckleberry friend,
(aka Sammy)

Goose River and me.

with apologies to Johnny and Henry

(the last one in the water to join in the parade around the bend)

a week  ago I woke up with a pain in my back that kept me more or less chained to the bed or the couch for about four days

I have a "bad back" anyway, have had for years....

my mother and our old neighbour told me I would have

 and I just ignored them

I used to do things I shouldn't and didn't care

who does when you're young and healthy and don't think anything of lifting and hauling and pushing and shoving...I didn't...

:) :) :)

I kind of sort of got used to being in pain most  some of the time

it's a rare day when I don't have a twinge or two....

feels strange when there is no pain!!!

 

anyway....it's all gone now

I got some of those sticky hot pads

 and it helped a bit

with the pain not what was wrong....

what was wrong went away and now I'm

OK

fine

dandy

no longer chained

pain

and

fancy

free

(?)

no more muscle spas-ummmmmsssss

have lots of hot pads left so if I get something else

somewhere else

I'll have heat

baby

....

stick on

heat

:) :) :) :)

so.... will have to get myself back into

blogging focus

it's been a little bit off lately

haven't been on line too much

but the little I have been

seems all is very quiet out there

must be the summer

time to get out and do other things

even Flickr is slow

but I'm sure all the pretty pictures
will come pouring in soon of all the fun and sun things

 

the hook and the needles have been lying down too

I just don't have the feel for them lately

maybe it's time to change to another type of needle

or just give it all up completely

guess I need to get back in the groove of blogging and surfing and all things

cyberspace

yarny and needly and hooky too

and focus on what I was doing before

I was laid flat by a muscle

(view in the sliding glass door from outside)

hopefully it will all re-focus itself soon and we'll get back

to

the little blog about nothing
