A big thank you to my hibiscus pals...

Warning, sappy moment ahead...

I've just got to thank all of you guys for making me laugh and cheering me up lately, especially on Kyle's crazy leaf thread.

The last couple of days have been super crummy for me, both emotionally and physically due to my illness. It's not easy staying at home locked in the house 99.9% of the time (living in "the bubble") and battling with insurance and disability (who for some reason are just not into paying for an incurable illness) preparing to begin a new type treatment next week. I just got back from the immunologist today and I've got yet another sinus infection with bronchitis which means another round of armeggedon-strength antibiotics. Quite depressing and I'm having a one-person pity party.

Sometimes it feels like nothing will go right, but you all never fail to cheer me up with your comments, comedy and blooms. Okay, I've got the sappiness out of my system now ;-)

Thanks to all of you for being my online pals :-)

Wow Liz, that is so powerful on so many levels!

Oh Karen, never let them beat you down. Persistence will pay off. I really think they try to win by dragging everything out forever till you give up. What a shame. I hope you feel better soon. I know gardening really can lift my spirits when everything seems to be going wrong. I hope it can do the same for you!

Know I care, that we all care!

I hope only the sun shines on you!

Liz, that was beautiful...brought me to tears, also!

Karen,
prayes, smiles and wishes are with you.

Wow Liz, that video was just incredible and so inspiring too :-) I've bookmarked it to watch every time I'm having a pity party of one.

Thanks for all your kind words and support guys, it means a lot :-) The heat has toned down a bit, and yesterday and today have been beautiful for working in the yard. Plus, my college DD is coming home for a week today, so DD#2 and I are both very excited to see her.

It should be a great weekend :-)

You go girl!

Have a great weekend, Karen!
