Where have I been?????

Hello again!!....especially Linda, who nudged me sometime this year ( I haven't checked my E-mail either LOL) I hope this finds you all well!

I have a lot to report...I suppose, all stuff and nothing on the vast scale of life, the universe and what have you. But, I will endevour to try and catch up.

Right, this year, I joined up to do a 2 year course in web design, I help run an internet forum, and soon to partake in another which will hopefully offer support to those who have suffered childhood abuse. I have been back into hospital with my heart, I have been busy with my artwork, even done a bit of celebrity chasing....and in my mind, already thinking of a blog entry which could be entitled " Ardal's bananas" so....look out for that one then eh? ( if you are still reading!) All the other stuff mentioned above, will have its own blog entry with which I can bore you with when you have a few moments to spare...the hospital episode, pretty humourous!!.

In short, I have just been unbelievably busy!!. Not always in a good sense...but definately busy. Have certainly missed all the writing, and especially you bloggers!. You were my main source of reading material but these days I seldom read at all!! shame on me.

I am amazed that I found my way on here at all to be honest, I managed to grab a few minutes as I have been at home all week on the sick! its a "domino" illness, I caught a cold from my youngest offspring, sneezed, and caused damage to my neck and shoulders in doing so!!. I only get paid statutory, so there u have it, the purse gets sick too!.

What else has happened?, oh yes,  we lost our beloved dog , Foxy, in July. We decided to have her put down, as she was an old and poorly little soul. It completely broke my heart, we are now a petless family, and the house seems very bleak without her. I have written a commemorative verse about her, which, I will happily blog when I have put one together for her.

We celebrated our tenth wedding anniversay in York, back in June, yes indeed, lots to write about there too...and knowing me as well as you do, None of this will be written entirely seriously, even though some of it should be.

Anyway, so sorry for my return entry being a boring few paragraphs, but  the writing bug is back, and so I shall returneth!

Take care, wrap up warm, and Happy pre-Christmas shopping mayhem!
