Sometimes I feel it has left me entirely and so I just sit and gaze out of the window, watching the clouds, the raindrops down the window pane, the flight of birds... <br />Hugs, gentle hugs, my dear. xxxExmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-50370558194755462212011-10-25T06:39:42.352-07:002011-10-25T06:39:42.352-07:00Sorry you've been ill, I've missed your bl...Sorry you've been ill, I've missed your blogging.

Might we even brave the notion of sharing freshly mixed up oatmeal? I grew up having cinnamon, brown sugar, butter and raisins added to that oatmeal, buy now really prefer just a bit of brown sugar and milk.<br /><br />I do hope that you continue on your road to recovery, mending your health. Today, I returned to my special library, The Cat's Table, by Michael Ondaatje. I liked it, and begin to connect certain themes and characters, from my reading of his earlier novels.<br /><br />Bravo to all libraries! xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-15743675068935461412011-10-24T14:43:30.000-07:002011-10-24T14:43:30.000-07:00Now that was terrific.

It's never helped me that way. <br /><br />And I am glad that you are feeling better. I hear that some can help their gallbladders to heal by doing thus and so. Having it gone just might be the quickest thing, but also has some little side effects that my family members have found unpleasant. Not quite as miserable as the attacks, of course. The attacks...awful.<br /><br />So lie low and don't overdo and eat healthfully. Keep us informed.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
