Sick Sick Sick

Many of you have been asking and wondering where I've been... WELL---I've been sick.... I won't go into any of the nitty gritty details ---but it's an intestional thing ---and I've been pretty miserable....

Please remember me in your prayers and thoughts---and hopefully,  I'll be back to blogging,  emailing,  Facebook,  calls,  etc.  SOON...  Please give me some time ---and I WILL be back...

Hugs,
Betsy

I hope you feel better soon! When I was a child, anytime I was sick, my parents would give me pineapple juice. I loved it, and I only got it when I was sick. So, now when I'm sick I make sure I have some pineapple juice. It just makes me feel a little better. I hope you have whatever your "pineapple juice" is to help you feel better, too.
