Well...

[vr_trakowski]

...Hi.  *waves*  Sorry for the long absence.  As cincoflex said, I had my appendix out last week, which is the more immediate part of some ongoing health problems that are annoying and deeply distracting but not by ANY means life-threatening--even the appendix wasn't on the point of going kaboom.  

Thanks for all the well-wishes!  I will reply to them soon--my online access is currently limited (and has a chair that doesn't suit my post-surgical self).  I intend to at least finish up Green Laurel and post it when I can, and I thank you all for your patience in waiting for it.  Since I'm not allowed to go back to work until probably next week, I might as well use the time for something, huh?  :P  In between naps, that is--boy howdy, the pain ain't much but my energy levels are about nil. 

Anyway, I just wanted to poke my head up and say I'm still here, if hopelessly behind on LJ and Twitter.  See you all around.

So happy to see you back and up and around! Sickness and pain (even after it passes) is just incredibly draining~take your time and feel better!

Thanks! I am better now, if a bit more tired than usual. I'm glad to be home!

Glad to read you are on the mend and taking it easy on your recovery. Hope you get the rest you need and they don't push you back to work too quickly!

Hah, I was ready to go back three days before they let me. Even the surgeon's receptionist was telling me I couldn't go back. :P

Thanks for the note!

Welcome back, my girl. I'm relieved you are well enough to pop in an say hey. Please take care of yourself, and I hope to see you back a little more regularly in the not too distant future. *many hugs*

Thanks! And thank you also for the card and the comics! No belly laughs, but a good handful of snickers. :D That was very kind of you!

Hope you're feeling better soon. Thinking of you!

I'm much better, thanks! Modern surgery is a wonder.

So good to see you 'out and about'. I've been thinking about you and hoping that everything was going well. Get well soon.

I've been wondering about you and am sorry to hear you've been having some medical issues. I hope you feel better very soon.

P.S. Looking forward to a Green Laurel update when you can.

Thanks! Eh, life is like that sometimes. I am better now.

You Live!!

Per our discussion on Saturday, I'll give you a call Wednesdayish and we'll see how the weekend pans out.

Stay rested and pain free!

[vr-trakowski.livejournal.com]

I do! Ain't medicine great? :D Thanks!

So glad to see you! I've been keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Glad you came through and are back amongst us here in the mad house.

*hugs*

Thank you for thinking of me! I'm glad to be back. :D

I am glad you are doing well! It is kind of a relief to hear someone else is having a hard time healing. I have had swine flu, pleurisy, and pneumonia each one causing the next for the last three weeks.

May your health return fully. :)

[vr-trakowski.livejournal.com]

Good heavens! Ouch. I hope you are recovering too--that sounds very painful.

Thanks for the note!

[inalichenmanner.livejournal.com]

Take it easy!

[vr-trakowski.livejournal.com]

Oh, I did! :D Thank you.

[elfling65.livejournal.com]

*HUGS*! So glad to hear all went well, considering. I hope you heal quickly.

[vr-trakowski.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm doing quite well so far.
