Hellooooo.
Is it really Wednesday already? Well, I am happy to report that after 2 days of doing nothing {not even leaving my bedroom} I am on the mend. I am not 100% better {maybe 50%} but I’m getting there.
And thank you. Thank you for all the sweet comments, suggestions and emails. YOU ARE THE BEST.
My goal is to work a online for a couple of hours this morning, then pop back in bed for a little rest, then hop back on the blog later this afternoon to check in and get a little more work done.
I hope you have a wonderful day, and thanks again for all the well wishes.
♥ Mavis

Glad to hear you are getting better. Logged onto my computer this morning and went straight to your site hoping to see you were getting better. Love your site, but better you should be on the mend for a few days and take it slowly.

So glad you’re well/on the mend! Being sick reminds us how good it feels to be healthy. FYI–Scoria is also a term for a certain kind of lava rock–the craggy, sharp, rough, black and burnt-red kind that we generally think of as lava rock.
