So Here's the Truth... (Well Most of It)

If you've wondered why I reappeared from my bloggy vacation only to disappear again for long periods of time, you're not alone.

I've been disappearing from all the things I love and all of my responsibilities lately.

The truth is, my health has gone way downhill over the last four weeks, and we're not sure what's wrong yet.

I've always been healthy as a horse...(or some other description that doesn't make me feel like a large dumb animal.)

Despite my overwhelming good health in the past, things aren't okay right now. And it will likely be another week before I know exactly why. I'm hoping they don't diagnose hypochondria. That will be very embarrassing.

As a slight side note, have I mentioned that I'm not good with doctors? Have I stressed enough to you that I detest asking for help for things I think should come easily to me? Do you know by now that admitting I'm not "up to a challenge" is not part of my vocabulary?

---end of side note---

I apologize for being vague about this. I detest vagueness, especially in myself.

Anyway, I'm having to take it easy for a little while, while I figure out what's going on. As soon as I know, you'll know. Well, actually, you'll probably know a little after I do, but not too much after. Even if it's hypochondria. I'll need your pity then, more than ever.

In the meantime, be patient with me, if I don't get back with you right away, leave my usually engaging comments on your posts, or let a few days go by without posting.

Here's to being back to normal, lickety-split.

I dislike doctors too. They are a necessary evil that I wish didn't need to exist. And yes, I know my husband will be a doctor soon...but that's different!
You are a good faker. I didn't even know you were under the weather. I sure hope you feel better soon. If anyone deserves it it's you - and I'm not just saying that. Here's to sending you prayers, good vibes, sunshine and lots of love your way!
PLEASE let me know if there is anything we can do. Love you.
