it saddens me to hear you're not that well yet having a hard time. Thinking of you very often but didn't manage to write to you in those last few weeks blush... feeling a bit guilty now! Yes, the road of recovery is long and hard... take you time, my dear friend! Hope this thread will lift your spirit!
Wasn't sure what to post for you... first I thought of an image from the town you grew up (promise to send you more of those shots in emails asap) but then I stumbled on a shot I took last year during my summer holidays LOL... found it very apt since it's similar (not the same quality though) to images from you. And the second reason to post it: In the image I see a man whisteling happily while working on his flowers in the garden surrounded by bees and butterflies. I wish you all the best for a speedy recovery so you will be able to work in your beautiful garden again very soon! ... and of course to be creative with your cam again :o)
Hugest hugz and greetz to your family as well
Monika

PS.Thank you Kort, for starting this thread and update me... wouldn't have noticed since I'm not around. You are a wonderful friend!

Thanks for telling me,Ilona! You're a wonderful friend! I had surely missed it for a while blush You are right... this is really a big loss for the community! Moni

Was shocked when I got an email about Egmont's bad health by Ian last friday! Thanks Kort and Bruce for updating me! Happy to hear Egmont is on the mend! All the best wishes for a speedy recovery, Egmont! My thoughts are with you! I'll keep you in my prayers! Hugest hugz... Monika

Oh my goodness... got this sad news today on the phone by Gerhard. Glad to see you have already been able to drop some lines here, Andreas! :o) All the best for a speedy recovery! Take your time and your medication to be all well again very soon.
Hugest hugz... Monika

It's strange this place doesn't look that sad. On the contrary it has a feel of serenity with all the colourful decoration and toys. I'm a bit down emotionally since I have been at this sad place. Just had to share this experience with you ... probably my way to work it out. Sorry!

Thanks, Doug!

Haha... pet peeves! Hard to choose just two from all the stuff we all could come up with LOL
@Nikki... yep, you're right, they grow with age! Yesterday I found a saying on someone's t-shirt, very fitting to this " Every day I'm living the list of those who can kiss my ass gets longer!" LMAO
Anyway, me thinks, I'd go for #8 Alphabet Soup
Moni :o)
