Communication Is Important.

Writing everyday has become something I do almost without thinking, by that I mean I no longer worry or wonder what to write.

Doing it everyday seems to have taken away that worry; there is always something to write about.

Starting my post happens without any hesitation, it happens almost organically, I make use of everything that I encounter.

I have always been interested in a wide range of topics, both on a macro as well as micro level.

My need for information has not been diminished by my being handicapped, so glad the internet is there to give me all the information I need.

Daily posts on my blog are an important part of my life, not being able to be independent and go where I want, makes writing vital for me.

I was very happy to visit every single blog on my list, this took me a whole week, and it was an enjoyable thing to do, good to read other blogs again.

Because it had been many months of not visiting anyone I felt quite bad that I had not been visiting my friends.

Last year Spike, our lovely dog suddenly being so ill in November and dying in December, plus pneumonia in January, took until March to fully recover meant no visits.

Since March I have been spending more time in my wheelchair so only wrote my posts, having visited everyone again, I am determined to make time for visits.

Important to communicate with friends and read their posts, all part of giving and getting support.          .

Visiting Friends Is Good.

From October until December we were involved with Spike’s illness, his eventual diagnosis of spinal cancer on 18th November and euthanasia 18th December.

Then pneumonia on 9^th January, I finally recovered end February beginning March, I did my daily posts, nothing else.

Since I have been spending more time in my wheelchair, and not been using my laptop as much.

It’s enjoyable, sitting in the wheelchair; the downside is that I have not been able to visit blogs.

Last Wednesday when Blogger was unavailable, the thought I might not be able visit my friends was shocking.

So decided to go and visit while I can, I have been enjoying visiting blogs.

Discovered the sad news that Tessa @ Aerial Armadillo died in December, I did not have much contact, the occasional visit and e-mails.

Enough to know Tessa was a wonderful woman, a talented artist, who will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

I also found that Anne’s blog Disabled Not Dead was gone, it had been deleted, which I think is a great shame as it was a great blog, a good resource for MS information.

I hope Anne is doing well, so far I am up to the letter G, lots more blogs to visit, looking forward to saying hello and reading many posts.
