You are so very welcome, my dearest Aniko! I do hope they are able to help you soon. I had such a wonderful surgeon for my broken elbow, and with the physical therapy, was back in business quickly. I do wish the same for you, and some rest for you, too. I will look for your posts.:)

Thank you my Darling Shirley! :) :) :)

I promise to add your copyright to it. "Serenity" will be most grateful and could use some cheering up at this time in her Life, as she is going through many dificulties and has problems with her health. This magnificent image cheered me and it will surely cheer her. It is a joy to share it and thank you again for the sharing & spreading of Love.

As for the pic of me, it's amazing what a little makeup and pain relieving drugs can do.(I don't look like that now... lol... I am wide awake at 5:00am waiting for medication to PLEASE to effect!)
I know I am over-straining myself, but I am in need of "doing".
Surgery date not set yet. Will know 5th Feb if not a little sooner... I tire of it all! I am a grumpy impatient bad patient (bad pun...)

I have just posted an older photo I made, since as you know, I cannot hold a camera to shoot new ones. I will pop in a few older never before posted images until I can shoot again!

I Love You Shirley.
Hugs ~
Aniko :)

Aniko Heart Aniko Heart   {K:26503} 1/27/2008
Dear Shirley!

Again I thank you for your sweet kindness and dedication to me of this divine image.

Typing (doing anything much really) is still very painful for me and it seems I will have to go in and have surgery soon, as the elbow, even in cast, is not healing.

I wanted to ask a favour of you. One of the assistant managers of the sites I manage is known by the name of "Serenity". Would I be allowed (naturally I would give full high credit to you), to downsize this image and make her a "tag" (or "siggy") that she can use only within the group/s.... ??? She is a lovely, kind and spiritual Lady with a deep Love of nature and our HOME... EARTH! Naturally, I understand if you do not wish for me to do this, and respect you completely as you know.

That is enough typing for now. Even with the medication, the pain is merely slightly dulled. I am copying like a "standard" reply (that I have typed up and saved in Word)
to my friends here in UF after viewing their magnificent images.

Much Love and Many Blessings Sweet Friend.
Hugs~
Aniko :)
