Thanks to all of my wonderful MyLot friends, especially those who actually took the time to go to my page, click on to my Tupperware link, and search out my email address to check up on me. That was so sweet and my heartfelt gratitude is with you (and I promise not to reveal that you work for the IRS - you must in order to track me down that easily!) The last couple of weeks have been very difficult and I have not had much time for the computer. I have had plenty of time, but have not been able to sit in the chair. Thank goodness for income tax returns! My partner purchased me the most comfy recliner that I can sit in with NO pain whatsoever!After getting it, I was hit with a bout of diverticulitis followed immediately with a fibromyalgia flare-up. I have been on the computer for the past 4 days working on my blog-site and came here for the first time late last night only to find that I can now promote my new Blog here! YEAH!I invite you all to check it out. It is in pretty formative stages but it is going to be rather fun I hope. As of now, I have the setting so you don't have to join to comment; but I would really appreciate it if you did. The site is www.grandmasmagicalkitchen.com I have also listed it here under the blog area but have not familiarized myself with that area yet. I just wanted to post to say HELLO HI THANK YOU I'VE MISSED YOU I'M GLAD TO BE BACK I CAN'T WAIT TO READ YOUR NEWS to all of you~Donna

Donna!!! YAY!!! You know, just yesterday I was wondering where you were! Some of my other friends have been absent from mylot lately too, and I was starting to wonder if there was some kind of mass exodus going on! I'm glad that you're back, and that you're feeling better. I'm going to go check out your site right now. =)

Thank you! It's not all going to be Tupperware, there's a lot more to me than that and I hope to have a lot of comments going and maybe even a little bit of fun. I hope to be running some give-away contests in the near future when I get enough other people that have things to offer up (not in a sacrificial way of course) LOL! - Yeppers! I'm back!~Donna

"not in a sacrificial way of course" Back and funny as ever! =p I have a question... do you know how I would get to your blog from the blogs here on mylot? I took a look around but couldn't find it, and I wanted to subscribe to it from here just to see how that whole thing works. I'm all up for freebies, both giving and getting them, so I'll look forward to it! =)

Oh, tickle, it has been rough going but let me tell you, the diarrhea that goes along with an episode of diverticulitis is a great way to knock off about 5 pounds real quickly. I think I'll look on the bright side. Thank you for caring ~Donna

Thank You Flowers - a simple gift
AP, I am so sorry - after answering everyone else's posts tonight I realized that I really shorted you with just a thank you. How dare I do that to a fellow West Virginian? Thank you so much for caring about me enough to check and to be the first one to make a comment when I posted. I feel so badly, please accept the flowers below. ~Donna

Glad to have you back with us :) I know how it is to be sick and not able to do what you want. I know I missed being here when I was that way so I can imagine how it was for you. Sounds like you have a great chair though. Anytime you can find something to relieve the pain it's a good thing so hold on to it for dear life. I'll have to check out your blog but I'm sure it's great. Glad to have you with us again and make sure you get lots of rest. No more getting sick.

I think it may be one of those things that either comes with old age or just from being too ornery! thank you ~Donna

Drink Lots Of Water - You Need Water When You Are Sick
Poor Baby! I know! It not only sucks, it sucks big! Get Better. You will need to drink a lot of fluids, so I am sending another picture of my cat Charlie demonstrating how to get water into your system.~Donna

So glad your doing better, and that you are able to be back online. I know from experience that diverticulitis can be miserable. I'm looking forward to checking out your blog. I'll leave a comment for you!

Oh I am happy to hear that you are a lot better now and have returned to mylot. Oh that was lovely of your partner for buying you a chair that you do feel much more comfortable now. Oh yes I know diverticulotis as I suffered with this for many years. But now I don't thank goodness. Yes it is great that you can promote your new blog here.

Thank you Kathy! How did you get rid of the diverticulosis? Do you control it just by diet? Mine is mostly controlled that way but I have a truly wacky neighbor that often brings food to me. After I have eaten it, she will tell me that the nuts that were in it were ground up really well and she wonders if I even noticed them? Ahhhh! Friends!~Donna
