The Flu and Other Things That Kept Me From You

Posted 4 months ago

I’m sorry that I’ve not been active for a while.

It started with a burst of passion for fabrics and a big sewing session, then I got the flu On New Year, finally recuperated after a few weeks, to get it again!

And somebody is harrassing me here on the Bubble, I filed reports and hope that it will stop, as I find it upsetting.

Many thanks to all my friends, watchers and hosts for givin…

Disconnected!

Posted 7 months ago

A short word. A piece of hardware failed and I’ve been disconnected for a while from the Net! I’m out of town right now, writing this from the hotel! Will get back here as soon as we get a replacement. :(

BACK!

Posted 9 months ago

I’ve been back for a couple of days now.

The vacation was wonderful, lots of gorgeous weather and family fun. Fortunately, my mother’s health seem to be improving, and that’s such a big plus for me.

I’m very behind in everything, and will try to get back in the thick of things here. I’m happy to be back!

Love, Josette

Hello dear friends,

Out of the Net and other Misadventures

Posted about 1 year ago

I’ve been absent here for the whole week.

Last weekend, I caugh a bad virus on my computer, which damaged my operating system and destroyed my hard drive, no less. At the same time, the phone plug broke, which meant I was out of phone communications too. The weather has been horrible too, windy, rainy and cold. So it’s been a trying week! And Bernard was away on a convention in Vancou…

I'm Back!

Posted over 1 year ago

And I’m happy to be back at home, although it feels somewhat strange, after being gone for so long.

I feel so grateful that I was able to travel to help my mother, and the time spent with her has been very rewarding, heartwarming and frustrating at times. I was quite tired when I got to bed at night! It was my first experience as a caregiver, so I was nervous at first, then found that I had…

Forthcoming Trip

Posted over 1 year ago

It seems that I’m often saying that I have to leave for a while…It makes me sad, as I don’t want to, but some priorities come up.

I’m flying soon to Nova Scotia, to my family. My mother got two surgeries during the Holidays for her legs, which were successful! She’s expected to be able to walk normally again, after years of being unable to take a walk. So that’…

I’ve been trying to save a mistreated dog; it,s such a slow process, and I’m heartbroken by it.

My mother went into surgery on Christmas Eve.. She needed to have the veins in her legs unclogged, as she’s been having increasing difficulti…

As much as I love art and spending time at RB, I need some time off for the next Holidays’ weeks. I have preparations to make like a lot of you; in my case, sewing up scrumptuous dresses for all of these celebratory events.

I wish to thank all of my friends and supporters for all thge encouragements, strokes and friendship given in the year 2010, which was a particularly difficult one for m…
