On The Blackwater

Musing on retirement, writing, puppies, and whatever else strikes my fancy

Blog slip-sliding away~

I had a brief problem with the last posting; it finally appeared, very far down the page and to the left!

I'm still doing well after the surgery for a hernia that was strangling my colon (!)...who knew? And I see my surgeon on the 18th who believes the three health crises I went through since 2004 were related. I just want them to END! Rushing to the ER and then spending weeks in the hospital, one crisis even involving a helicopter ride as the doctors told Hubby "Your wife is dying."

I had six specialists getting me through that one. One for each organ that was failing in severe sepsis...

Meanwhile, I have dear friends who are several years older than I, who are driving great distances, flying here there and everywhere, ah well...I guess it is in the DNA somewhere.

OK, enough about all this health stuff. There may even be more surgery ahead; I'll know more when I have my follow-up appointment with the finest surgeon in this entire area.

Let's hope this Blog goes on the 'page' correctly!

The blog looks good. Did you perchance click on the justify text left thingie by mistake for the earlier post?

I once knew a Native woman who told me that car problems often mirror body problems. I wonder if that's true for our blogs.

I'm in Massachusetts helping my mother who is recovering from shingles. It's been a rough road.

Becky...no, what happened was our power cut off and the auto-save didn't save right away (I'd put an ampersand in there somewhere.)

When everything came back on, I had a Blog off to the left and down the page.

Figuring it was a one-time thing, I blogged again, and the same thing happened.

Yes, I need that book, Blogging for Dummies...

Colleen: Watch over your Mom. My husband's uncle was twice hospitalized with shingles, and then was hit by a heart attack. Sudden, no warning, no chest pain.

Don't want to scare you, but keep a close (medical) eye on her.

Marion, they're going to be fixing you up better than new and then you're going to be flitting all over the place like people half your age!
