uppitycats Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 since I've been here. Can't really remember the last time I posted...but a LONG time ago! I've been ill... a .major spell of ill health. I have MS. It had been relatively stable for nearly 20 years...then I experienced a pretty quick and major decline. I was hospitalized all of April and May (actually, hospital and rehab center), There was a time, there, when I thought perhaps I wouldn't get home, and would end up in a nursing home! Not a good thing. And computer problems. Bought a new laptop about a year ago, and it's a lemon. Been in and out of repair centers, I lost lots of data(including log in information for this site!), and it still isn't working properly. About to turn it into a boat anchor! I still have vision problems (double vision). And shaky hands. And major fatigue. So my plan is to finish up the dollhouses I have (Garfield, Tennyson, Brimble, Brookwood, Washington, Lighthouse Taft, 3 Houseworks Room boxes,) then put all the extra miscellaneous furniture, accessories and tools up for sale, then figure out what to do with the houses (and their interiors.) So I'm gonna be busy! Anyway...I'm back, for now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapchap73 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 It's good to see you back, Ann. I'm so sorry to hear your MS has been giving you rough time; mine is acting up a little right now from the hot weather. I know from experience how fast things can change. Hope you are feeling better soon. :hug: :hug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Welcome home, Ann! :hug: I'm so sorry to hear about your health problems, but you've been missing for so long I was afraid that might be it... You will want to hang onto at least one of your lovely houses to play with on good days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was close to someone for awhile years ago who had MS and I totally understand what a struggle it can be. Good thoughts are going your way!

Hopefully it will continue to be your bliss,not a stressor,because I so look forward to seeing what you come up with next! You're in my thoughts.
