#Blogmas, advice, blogging, But I Smile Anyway, dorindaduclos.com, my thoughts, Night Owl Poetry, Ritu, spam filter, WordPress

Hi there!

I decided to take Ritu’s (But I Smile Anyway) advice and check my spam filter.  Oh my goodness!!  So many of you wound up in there.  I’m so sorry.  I was not ignoring you.  WordPress popped you there, instead of here.  But it’s all better now. I’ve put you back where you belong   🙂

If you missed any of Ritu’s #Blogmas posts, be sure to check them out.  She gives great advice to new bloggers, and seasoned veteran’s, as well!!

The sound of the rain against the window pane, like a constant knocking. Loved ones from above, trying to come in. Let me open the window…

I’m awake at this ungodly hour and it is raining. Usually it lulls me to sleep, but not tonight. Too much on my mind, so I will just lie here and listen. Join me, won’t you?

Another Curve Ball ~ The Adventures of Me

52AE575B-2972-4876-87E3-7AC9D002A077.jpegYep, that’s my leg. After an ultrasound to make sure I didn’t have a blood clot, they wrapped me in a knee immobilizer, called in a prescription for an anti-inflammatory , told me to follow up with my ortho and sent me on my way.

A little back story.  I’ve already had two surgeries on this knee.  There is basically no cartilage left between the bones.  On a high note, I can predict when it will snow and rain.

I will be MIA for a bit.  I’ll try to get to comments when I can.

Have a great week ahead!

A Short Break

break time, dorindaduclos.com, God's got this, my thoughts, Night Owl Poetry

Good afternoon (evening, morning) friends,

I will be taking a short break from the world of WordPress.  Some of you may have noticed it is taking me some time to reply to comments, etc.  My daughter has been ill and I will be spending my time caring for her, trying once and for all to get to the bottom of all of this! I also have my mom with me, who is recuperating from a fractured spine.  To say I have my hands full, is putting it mildly.  Thank the Lord I have an amazing man by my side, who holds me up.  I keep wondering who holds him up!!  But I also know, God has us in his hands, and we shall persevere!!   ❤

I have scheduled posts to fulfill my obligations with #NaPoWriMo & Morgan’s Daily Haiku Challenge.  Please understand that if you do comment, I may not be able to get to you for a bit.  I really have no idea when I will actually return.

As always, you are bright spots in my days, and I love this community.  I’ll be around when I can…

~Dorinda
