Talk about a rocky few weeks!
First my computer died. Then I couldn't get a permanent working substitute. Once I did have a replacement in place, I couldn't find copies of my favorite old standby graphic program. After a long and frustrating series of trial and error program testing, I finally found an easy to use, feature-rich [if somewhat clunky] graphic program. Check out PhotoScape if you need a new graphics program, and download a free copy today. With my favorite html editing program, EditPlus, I finally felt I was ready to return to blogging.
During all of this, I was quite busy closing my store at Online Auction. I will be reopening later this year, but for now, I wanted to take a break and return to my unfinished art and writing projects before I completely lose my creative steam!
While I was struggling with all this, Hubby suffered a series of minor medical problems that kept us worried and in and out of various doctor's offices, clinics, and hospitals. He's doing well now, though with one problem still unsolved. We should know in a few days if he needs an operation on his shoulder.
So, with everything going on, I am so glad to be back and energized! I'll have some great photos to share with you and several unfinished blogs about places and events from last year that I need to update and post. And I've got a new series of Writer's Challenges slated to get up and running later this week, too. [Be sure to share the new challenges with your writing friends. Should be a lot of fun!]
Thanks for stopping by today and hope to see you again.
And of course, your comments are always welcome.
Have a great day!

Welcome back to blogging. Hope everything goes well with your husband.
Best wishes for your husband...I do hope everything clears up without an operation.
welcome back! I hope all your family's medical and technical issues are resolved soon! both are not fun :)
Thanks Loree, Fly, & Kate! I appreciate your understanding! We will be finding out Friday [I hope his doctor makes a decision one way or the other] if Hubby needs the operation. We'll have to "go with the flow," and do whatever is best and on their schedule.
In the meantime, I'll keep blogging. LOL
Thanks again! :)
HUBBY UPDATE: We're so happy that the tear in his shoulder muscle does NOT require surgery at this time to fix!! Yaaay!!! He will be undergoing periodic shots of steriods in his shoulder and a therapeutic course of exercises with the Physical Therapist that I can help him with at the gym. We're just so glad he's going to be able to continue to use his arm and allow it to heal at the same time. I don't mind doing his chores around here while we baby his arm. Anyhow, I just wanted to let you know maybe our luck has changed! Seems I get a little down once in a while but I don't think it's productive and hate to whine, but unfortunately, I do. Thanks for hanging in there with me and letting it pass! Have a super weekend! :D
