Hi,
At last I am again together with you.
Yes, my soul is singing.
“At last my life has come along
My sadly days are over and life is like a song, oh, yeah.”
Hi,
Imagine – to be in hospital with a catheter intravenous for three weeks,
after a surgical operation followed by a banal flu, a banal virosis
from a banal virus.
I know that I don’t know to be a good and pleasant hostess, but believe me,
for this kind of virus I am the best. The virus doesn’t leave me.
I implore it day and night, please leave me alone, go away…
No, for sure I am the best.
I still feel it. It comes back again and again… I’m afraid that I will have to
return to the hospital.
This is the reason of my long silence, maybe too long.
I miss you all,
Tania
Hi,
After my surgical operation, my best friend was a book , Bagombo Snuff Box,
by Kurt Vonnegut.
Thank you, Jeff.
All the best for you,
Tania
Hi,
As tomorrow it is the Valentine’s Day, I wish to all our blog friends
to find their compatible love and compatible friends.
Best wishes,
Tania
Ohh, Tania, so sorry, I was afraid about you and your silence.
I did not understand anything, and asked myself, what about Tania?
It is so odd, I am alone with the new friends like Mari Carmen and
the new blogers.
Tania? Dan? Peter? Aecio? Lili? and so many friends that came
and gone.
Well, at least you are here.
Say to the virus good bye, I am O.K.
after being in the hospital and so forth…….
Take care my friend and congratulations.
