Up From the Dead She Arose

 

Have you wondered where I was?

Did you think some evil befell me?

Were you having visions of the chickens pecking at my decaying carcass?

 

: -)

 

I'm here - and very, very well!

 

There's going to be heaps to catch up on - but I just wanted you to know -

I live.

 

Just over a month ago - my laptop gave up the ghost.

 

Replacing it, or repairing it was low on my list of priorities - so I just closed it and put it away.

 

I pulled out my old defunct cell phone and tried to stay somewhat connected through that - but it was such a pain.in.the.butt.

I tried in vain about four times to put a one sentence blog post up letting you guys know what was up.

 

Thank you for your comments and emails!

 

A blog reader from California, sweet Mary Jo - heard about my plight on Facebook.

She had a dream in which she sent me a laptop.

Upon waking - she sent me an email saying that she felt she was supposed to send me one.

 

I hemmed and hawed a bit - not knowing if I could/should accept such a generous gift - and how would she feel if I didn't blog - but just sat around and ate Cheetos and surfed Pinterest?

 

I thought perhaps I was done blogging.

I was enjoying my season of being unplugged.

 

Then, one morning whilst making the bed - I had a blog post burning in my duodenum that I felt needed to get typed out.  I even had a title for it "Chasing the Noodle".

 

I accepted her offer.

 

This beautiful laptop I'm typing up on is nicer than anything I could have purchased for m'self.

It literally just came out the box, and here I sit - pecking feverishly, letting y'all know I'm alive.

 

Do you know that feeling you have after you've slept in a strange bed for a few nights?

How good your own bed feels?

 

That's how my fingers feel right now typing up on a real keyboard!

 

I'll catch up with you in the days ahead.

 

I've missed you.

 

 

 

PS - I apologize for any technical errors this post seems to have - I have to do some figuring on here....
