There is a reason..

I know, I know... I always ask you few readers to post and then I don't. In my defense... I haven't had a camera.

Let me shorthand this in no particular order.

-5 weeks of bronchitis (including missing a full week of work)

-tetanus shot and stitches after wound to hand (three weeks to heal)

-home burgled (hence no camera)  "violent" break in through large window (weeks of insurance mess and home repairs)

- host visiting artist in my recently burgled home

- Chair Panel at a national conference two weeks after laptop stolen. This is key since my whole portion of the presentation went with the laptop.

_Oh yeah and the regular ol, teach, ship work, do my job business.

(:

Luckily I survived, and 3 months, lots of no sleep and good portion of my savings later I am sequestered in a fortress of security screens, wall spikes and pots liquid nailed to my walls. And... I have a camera again.

These are the first real shots I've taken with it. Crazy is here for a visit (post surgery on her hand) and this is a little homage to our days together so far.


So... Have camera, will post.
Please do so also. (:

I love reading and seeing what you are all up to.

Thank you SO much for allowing me to continue my convalesce here in warmer climes, whilst enjoying some sibling bonding time. You are an entertaining and generous host. And you cook a Mean batch of soup!

Thanks for hooking me on Trader Joe Plantain chips - I'm going to need a supplier so I don't go through withdrawal.

(Disclaimer - I don't always dress like a hippy bag lady, but when I DO, I go all out! As this post bears witness)

Glad you got a camera back! Nice photos to commemorate. Sounds like you might be glad to see the back end of 2013! Here's hoping 2014 is a better year for you!

You are back in business baby! I am usually a believer that bad things happen in 3's, but am starting to think you have the curse of Job.
Here is hoping that nothing happens for awhile!
