I wanted to let you all know, just because I haven`t been around doesn`t mean the yarn is safe from me! SK and Bets have got me covered. ;-} Actually, I am writing this from the hospital following life-threatening emergency abdominal surgery last weekend. I`ve always thought we had way too much small intestine anyway, and no one`s gonna miss a foot or so. I am doing okay but recovering slowly, very slowly and have not had anything by mouth for a week or so. All I can think of is Alice`s
Stilton Cheesecake Recipe performed by the talented Les.

I am using Thom`s laptop so I don`t know when I will get to sign in again. But remember, if I don`t get the yarn, somene else could be doing it for me.:-}

PS. I`ve really missed you guys.

Oh Benne, that`s so frightening. What an awful thing to have to go through. I`m glad that you are on the mend. Take good care of yourself. I`m sending healing thoughts your way.

Hey there girl. It takes quite a knitter to enhance her stash from a hospital bed :) You concentrate on knitting your body back together so we can continue to enjoy your company.
Suppose we can get Les to make another of those cheesecakes?

Dear Benne, thank goodness you are all right! You just concentrate on getting better; the yarn, knitting and we chatters will always be there for you!
I`ll have to remember to get some yarn buyers by proxy for me if the need should ever arise :-).

Oh, Benne!! What a year it has been! Then again, the last three years seem to have been in competition for worst ever...

Good to see you are up to joking - good sign!
Take good care of yourself. Prayers for a very fast and complete recovery going your way. That cake will taste very good one of these days...

Yikes Benne! You should be feeling a boost coming your way in the next day or so with every Elannite beaming good wishes your way. You certainly have my hope for a speedy recovery. I prescribe wool fumes as necessary therapy!

Holy WOW, Benne!! Just last night, I was wondering what you were up to. I guess I know now!

You poor girl!

I`m sure Les will be by with some cyber baking....easily digested!

Holy cow! I am so relieved to hear you are OK. Recovery should be quicker with deliveries of wooly bouquets in little white boxes. Get lots of rest and take care of yourself so you can go home soon. I`m sending healing vibes your way.

Do Faelan and Bell get to visit at the hospital?

I always get the Heebie Jeebies when someone is MIA, I hope you have an easy recovery, did Thom bring you some knitting to do to keep you busy?? Feel better and don`t rush the healing process Grace

Take it slow, knowing there`s chocolate and cheesecake on the other side. Hugs to you both!

We have really missed you too. Get well. Take care of yourself. And no knitting your tubes.
Seriously we were very worried. I am so glad to see they didn`t take your spark for life or sense of humor with your plumbing removal

I am assuming that you didn`t want today`s yarn, but I will call you Thursday to see if you want the offering.

You need to take care of yourself--we can`t do without you!

We certainly do need you. Can you persuade the nurses that you need a hospital gown in red? Daryl

Sending you and Thom a virtual Stilton Cheesecake. Hope you`ll be able to eat a real one soon.

Take care of yourself and try to do what you are told.

Big hugs

You`re in my thoughts and prayers, Benne! Can`t imagine how scared our girl was and we didn`t even know.

Peace and Prayers,
Jean
