.....and how.
I've been waylaid by The Flu since last week, and ay carumba, has it ever been a doozy. Fevers, chills, aches/pains, dizzy spells, congestion, the works....! Fortunately though I see light at the end of the tunnel (and without too many spots before my eyes now, thank goodness) in that I can actually sit upright today for extended periods of time, so I guess that's progress. Unfortunately it does however now mean I have fallen crazy behind in pretty much all areas of life. It's amazing how just a few consecutive days of unplanned (and unwanted) 'rest' can throw everything out of whack! I'm so woefully backlogged with the '29 Faces' Challenge by this point I'm wondering how I can ever catch up -- not to mention my beloved Nibblefest Art Contest starting tomorrow, the 20th (February's theme: 'Domestic Animals'). I haven't missed a month of the Contest in a very long time, but sadly this is one I might have to sit out. Oh well, whatever the case, it's very good to be back among the land of the living again -- very grateful for that and for my good health in general! Something I never want to take for granted.
Thanks so much everyone for all the comments and positive feedback that I've been receiving, I really and truly appreciate it! Good luck with all your Faces, everyone -- hopefully I'll be returning soon to my regularly-scheduled 'same old, same old' routine, including more Faces of my own.....
