I need some suggestions…

by tealou on August 26, 2006 in Uncategorized with 6 Comments

I am thinking of entering an amateur photography competition, but I am not sure which one(s) I should choose for the entry.

I would appreciate it if people could go to my Flickr! page and suggest a couple of entries? And none with me in them because the public did nothing to deserve that! ;)

Anyway, click here to check it out… and if you have any suggestions (constructively please), comment here. Also, if you have a flickr account and want to add me, feel free and I’ll return the favour.

Some Jules video

Hey all,

Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. Meant to write a big post about all that went on, but honestly, I can’t really be arsed.

Do people want me to write what happened? I still want to say some things but I am not sure if the time has passed? Thoughts?

In the meantime, here is some video of Jules.

Business as usual? Hardly.

Hi all

I know I said I was abandoning this blog, but I figured that it was easier to post here because this is where people are reading.

Yes, I am home. No, I am not better and no, it is not business as usual. I am still in a lot of pain and still recovering.

A few people have mistakenly assumed that because I am home that I am suddenly “on” or “available” and that I can just continue where I left off. That is not the case. I still have a good month before I start to feel normal again. I can’t sit in one place for longer than about 40 minutes before I need to sit somewhere else. My head is foggy and I can’t really concentrate, and if I don’t reply on an IM, it is not because I am a bitch, it is because everyone jumps on me the second I go online.

I appreciate that people care, I really do, but I just can’t chat for long periods of time. I can’t concentrate enough to post a blog and as much as I want to, I can’t focus enough to do my Uni work or much else. So please, if I appear online, please don’t jump on me. And if I don’t reply, please don’t follow up or get pissed. Its the little things that upset me at the moment and the computer is my only source of outside world contact.

I love that everyone cares about me, but when I wake up having accidentally left Trillian on and there are 20 messages with “hello are you there” waiting for me, I am in pain, its just not a good start to my day. :)

So please, just be patient. Especially this week, as Jason is going back to work and I am here with the kids on my own and frankly I don’t know how I am going to cope. But, I should be fine as long as people are a bit more patient with me.

Thanks muchly :)

Tealou arrived back at her home at 10.30 Tuesday. She still has a lot of recovery to go but it is good to have her back where she belongs, with her family. I’m sure she will be back to her old self real soon.

Not quite there yet. Tealou is still has two IV’s going and is unable to eat anything.

Tealou is understandably very frustrated and is longing to leave the hospital as soon as possible. That is hopefully going to be around Tuesday next week. Unfortunately that means that she will miss seeing Ben Elton live on Sunday. Tealou has been a life long fan of Ben Elton and has wished for years to have the opportunity to see him live on stage.

Thankyou for your continued support.
