I am back to some semblance of working next week. Arm still in a sling and while yesterday and Wednesday were quite bad for the pain, today has been markedly better. I do get very tired though and need to sleep often.

I am blessed with incredible friends colleagues and family. I want for nothing.

Avon is one of the few men who could carry that off.

I wrote and published these a lot quicker than ipso, too.

Out of surgery. All went well.,

Not really:(

In the birthday gift that keeps giving, just been told I’m having surgery on my arm tomorrow.

People who just value the irony of his surname too damn much.

I mean… true.

The brilliant and indefatigable James Tibbitts there. Super proud editor here.

So some not great news. I slipped on the ice earlier. Currently in the hospital waiting for an x-ray on what they think is a dislocated arm. :(

I am so blessed to have wonderful people in my life who do things like this.

Ok so you can mostly see my reflection. But the view from my room is fab!

Tromso here I come!!

I live a wonderful life full of love, companionship, flirtation, romance and sex. I do it as a happily single woman.

Happy Valentine's Day to all those celebrating their own lives of love - whatever shape that takes.
