Full stop

My fortune from last week's Chinese take-out meal:

(Let me just tell you, I didn't have one bit of fun this last weekend and it's definitely affecting my productivity this week.)

Well, hello there.
It's me, Danni, returning to the Land of the Living. I have been sick for the last week and I'm kind of grouchy. A full week of my life - poof - gone...dedicated to the worst cold I can remember having. And it's still not gone, but at least I am upright again, which I see as a really huge step in the right direction.

You see, the majority of the last week has been spent either in bed or in a reclining position somewhere around my house. This, as you can imagine, made for rather limited photo opportunities. And I really like to take photos.

But habits die hard and I found myself trying to make due with my limited mobility and my phone camera.

For example, here's my dog, Roxy, sleeping:

Oh, and here's my dog, Roxy. Still sleeping:

I did try to vary my subject matter. For instance, here's the incredible meal that my wonderful mom hand-delivered to us (and then Jim served me in bed):

And here's the small, German dessert treat my mom stuck in with our meal. I love these:

And this little chicken? That was a small surprise my step dad put in our food basket to make me smile:

I am very lucky to have such wonderful people in my life who are always there to take care of me. Even Honey dropped by frequently to see why I wasn't coming out to play:

See everything a phone camera can capture when the need is there?!

Except for when I went out to feed, it was a very strange feeling to be inside that much, watching my beloved outside-world almost exclusively through the various windows of my house.

Everyone seemed to do just fine without me, though. Honey took full advantage of the two incredibly sunny and beautiful days we had by leaning up against the door and sunning herself:

Now, the real reason for this post is because I know I've promised a number of you some Kai llama fiber to play with - I want you to know that I haven't forgotten you! I've been sitting on my front porch today, packing it up.

And to the sweet person (Cathy!!) who has been waiting so patiently for some vegetable seeds from Critter Farm...they are actually in an envelope - all addressed and everything - I just need to stagger out to the post office to get them off to you.

Colds. Yuck.
