A fill in post



Hi folks, this is Peter, I'm doing a short
post for Margaret as she has no ISP at the
moment.
This coming on top of her recent illness
has had her feeling pretty depressed, to
the degree that she talked of giving up
blogging, not wanting to see that happen
I suggested that I would do this post
explaining that she will return when she
gets her broadband back again.

It is amazing how things seem to conspire against
somebody at times, Margaret has certainly had a run like that lately,
losing her Husband and then her youngest son in rapid succession.
With her illness putting a cap on things and now computer related
problems just for the frosting on the cake.

It is Justin's birthday on Saturday 3rd Feb, it would be a nice surprise
if she were to come back to a lot of cheery messages when she returns.

Dear Margaret...I kept coming to your blog every day and was getting worried because you weren't posting...now I know why! Thank you Peter for letting us know what has been happening!

Hopefully your internet will be back up soon! I can imagine how I would feel without it, I'd be lost! Oh please don't ever stop blogging, you are always a joy to visit:-)

I know how much you miss Justin and with his birthday coming up, it will be a sad day for you...just know that you're in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs xoxo

Gidday Margaret,
Dontcha just love dem computers. When they're working they're great, but when they're on the blink, they're a pain in the butt.
Don't give up Margaret, just look you've had over 2,800 odd hits on your blog, so there's alot of folks who've been to your site, so it would be a shame for you to stop blogging.
Get well soon and hope to read about your return to the blog world real soon.

Margaret, if you were to close this site down I would be crestfallen. I look in every day just to see how you are doing.

It is a bummer when things go the way they have for you lately. Please remember that you have a lot of friends and fans out here in blogger land.

So, as we used to say back in the 60's, keep on truckin'.

PS: Thanks to Peter for this update. You are true friend.

Sorry to hear you're not well Margaret and the computer is playing up too!
I confess I don't visit your blog very often but I've just spent a very enjoyable 20 minutes reading back through several of your posts, there's lots of good stuff here.
Really liked the No Bell Piece Prize and Pullet Surprise, very clever.

Hope you're felling better and blogging again soon.

Marcus

Dear Margaret,

Please don't even think of giving up blogging!

It's so good to have this connection with so many people. We all need that!

...and I, like Pea, have been checking back here every couple days to see if you've posted!

Thanks to Peter for letting us know what's going on with you. (Peter is such a good guy to everyone!!)

See you soon Margaret.

(hugs)

Hi Margaret. I have been checking your blog all the time too. I was worried about your health (the virus post you know).

I tried to post yesterday when I saw Peter's update but it wouldn't work. There were nine on ther already.

Maybe this one will work. BCNU! :)

Merle said...

Dear Margaret ~~ It was great to hear from you as I had been worried also.
I had e-mailed but didn't know the line was down. Anyway all's well that ends well. I will be thinking of you tomorrow and bring out my old favourite "Don't be sad that he has gone, Be glad that he has been."
Looking forward to your next post.
Lots of Love, Merle.

Hello Margaret,
I came over from my dear friend Merle's blog.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Take care.
Hugs

Granny said...

I asked Peter to send you my best wishes because I couldn't get in here (stupid blogger) to comment.

Or his, I sent him an email.

Now I'm here and looking forward to your return.

Hi Margaret,
I hope that things are picking up for you now - being without the computer is a nuisance, but sometimes it can be a blessing too, for me anyway, I can catch up on sleep and stuff like housework.

It's very clear you are missed when you are not here, please try and stay with us if you can.

much love
Della
