Going off-air due to illness in the family and I'm not sure when I'll be back to posting. Please check back or, if you desire, feel free to email me at bookfoolery at yahoo dot com - I will attempt to at least check that email every 4-5 days (but don't hold your breath, please, as purple is not a becoming skin color). Also, while I've got you . . . just wanted to let you know that the nifty "email follow-up comments to" feature that Blogger has just recently added does not work for me, due to the fact that it's based on one's Google ID and my Google ID is my old email address, which is no longer functional. I'll try to change that when I'm back online, but it may be weeks - I just can't say. I leave you with a kitschy beaded monkey holding an oversized Italian glass necklace that doesn't work on a short person and ended up a monkey toy hanging from a curtain rod (Whew! How's that for a run-on sentence?) - lucky you!
Take all the time you need, Nancy. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I know things must be rough for you right now. All the best.
ReplyDeleteNancy, please take care of yourself and your family. We will miss your smiling self around the blogosphere, but totally understand. *hugs*
ReplyDeleteHope everything will be OK soon. "See" you when you come back.
ReplyDeleteChris,
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'll try to peek in on the blogs, if I have a chance. I'm gonna get blog withdrawal. LOL I appreciate the thoughts and prayers. :)
Heather,
Thanks and *hugs* right back at ya! I like your new little avatar. Is Jacob Black the fellow that shows up in New Moon? I've got to read that one. Andi already cooed about him. I'll be peeking in on blogs, if I can. :)
Oh, no! I hope everything goes okay--especially with the person who is will. We'll miss you!
ReplyDeleteHugs and prayers to you, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteBe well and safe travels.
{{{Bookfool}}} You'll be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. I look forward to your return.
ReplyDeleteI hope everything works out. I'll miss your posts, especially Wahoo Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteWe'll be thinking of you. Hope you will be okay through everything.
ReplyDeleteNancy, our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will miss you.
ReplyDeleteLynne,
ReplyDeleteThanks. I hope things will improve, too; but it's going to be a while. Hopefully, I'll have the chance to peek in and blog-hop a little, now and then. :)
3M,
Thank you. I'll miss all my blog buddies and will do my best to try to at least drop in. :)
Les,
Thank you! I appreciate the prayers and hugs. :)
Joy,
Thanks (esp. for those huge hugs). I just know I'm going to have blogger withdrawal. LOL But, I'll be busy. Thanks for the prayers. :)
Eva,
Thanks so much. I'll try to pile up some wahooey ideas and do a big post when we get past all this. I kind of rely on those wahoos, myself. :)
Melanie,
Thank you. I'll be fine, but I'm gonna have to cook. My mother is terrified. LOL
Booklogged,
I appreciate the thoughts and prayers, thanks! I'll miss all my bloggy buddies and will try to peek in whenever possible. :)
I'm thinking of you and your family, Nancy. We'll be here when you get back. Take your time.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are with you and your family. Fingers crossed for a full recovery.
ReplyDeleteYou and your family are in my prayers.
ReplyDelete*BIG HUG*
We'll all miss you and your Wahoo Wednesdays. Take care of yourself as well.
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope everything is ok. I wouldn't worry too much about the blog. Just take care of things with your family. They are definitely more important!!
ReplyDeleteHugs to all of you!
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. Come back as soon as you can. We'll be here ;)
ReplyDeleteSending you lots of good thoughts Nancy. Hope everything will be ok. Hugs.

ReplyDeleteSorry for the mass reply. Thanks so much. (((((Group hug!!!)))) I'll miss you guys. If at all possible, I will peek in on your blogs. I appreciate you all!!!
Hugs and prayers. Lots.
ReplyDeleteAndi
Thanks, Andi!
ReplyDeleteI can never get too much of either hugs or prayers. Love ya.
Oh, no! I'm so sorry about the illness, Nancy. I dropped by to find out why your word count had stopped moving upward. Sorry this happened in November. I'm sending all the good vibes possible to you, along with prayers. And while you are doing what you need to do, don't forget to take care of yourself, dear heart!
ReplyDeleteBonnie,
ReplyDeleteThanks. Yeah, it kind of sucks that I had to be yanked away in November. I'm going to hack away at my story whenever I can, but I'm not banking on a lot of writing time and I'm kind of assuming this will be my last day of internet access. I feel a little adrift, already. Prayers are appreciated. Have fun with your Nano! :)
Sending you all my best wishes, Nancy. I'll hope for a speedy recovery for the one who is ill. We'll miss you!
ReplyDeletePrayers and good thoughts to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteWow. I've never seen anything like it. Truly.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon -- and don't give us purple people a second thought.
I'll miss you but understand needing to be a caregiver.
ReplyDeleteWill be thinking of you and praying. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Sorry that illness has shown up at your doorstep. We're gobbling down Vit C as though a shortage might be any day now...lol!
ReplyDeleteWe will be praying for you. May the God of all comfort be both healer and encourager.
ReplyDeleteTake care, Nancy. We'll miss you but we'll be here when you get back! You and yours are in my prayers.
ReplyDeletecjh
Hugs and thoughts to you and your family xx
ReplyDeleteI'm just getting back in the swing of things and I see that you're off. I'll be thinking of you and your family!! (((Hugs)))
ReplyDeleteGoing off-air is a very peaceful thing to do, and I hope it brings you a respite although I'll miss you. I also will pray for your family, and God's healing hand in your lives.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI hope things get better soon!!
ReplyDeleteI'll miss you. I hope all is well and/or on the mend.
ReplyDeleteRobin, Jenclair, Tristi, Maggie, LC, J.Kaye, Kevin, CJ, a.book, Nat, Bellezza, Trish, Heather and Orange Blossom Heather:
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a lot of names. LOL Thank you very much, all of you. I've missed being in contact with everyone. I'm at a Burger King, of all places, taking advantage of their free internet. It took days to figure out where I could get a signal. I'll post an update, later on. I appreciate you all! The time off is not such a bad thing; I just feel a little lonely. :)
Hugs all around and sorry for the mass reply!!!!
Hope everything is okay soon, and please take care. We'll miss you!
ReplyDeleteI'll miss you, but know that family comes first. Your blogging family will be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteWe will miss you! You are in my thoughts and prayers. Be well and bless you!!
ReplyDeleteAll,
ReplyDeleteI just want you to know how much I appreciate you guys!!! Thanks so much for thinking of me - I miss all of you!!!
Gentle Reader,
Thank you. It looks like a long road ahead of us - I'll be away from home for at least a couple more weeks. I'm really missing the blogging world!!
Bybee,
Thank you. That's such a great way to look at it: my "blogging family". I love it!
Joemamma,
Thank you! I appreciate the thoughts and prayers. We're hanging in there. I'm caring for my mother and she's a very sick lady. It'll probably be at least a couple of weeks before I can post.
Hey, I hope everything's okay over there. Just checkin' in to see how you are.
ReplyDeleteHi Tristi!
ReplyDeleteThings are fine, here - improving, daily. I'll head home in about 10 days. Sister's bringing Thanksgiving dinner, thank the Lord. I'm so sick of cooking. I hate cooking. :)
Thanks for asking!!!
Wishing you the very best this Thanksgiving! :)
ReplyDeleteJ. Kaye
Thanks, J.Kaye!
ReplyDeleteI am on hiatus Nancy, but something drove me to check your blog today and I am so glad I did. Hope everything's improving at your end. Hope to see you back soon.
ReplyDeleteHi Lotus!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm a working hiatus, here. LOL I've had to cook three times a day. Ask me if I ever thought I'd survive, but yes . . . we're actually doing very well. I'm going to attempt to post an update, since I have a little time. It's good to "see" you!!!
