And So this is Christmas...
Tis the season to be jolly, and while I'm not exactly jolly, I'm grateful that the surgery is over and that the healing is underway. Thank you for all your good wishes; I've been home since Friday but haven't been feeling the best. But painkillers are a wonderful thing, as is ice cream birthday cakes. It just all takes time.
My greatest gift this Christmas to have my family with me over these few days, and hope for a healthy 2009.
So to all of you from my garden, much love and best wishes for a Happy Christmas, a Joyeux Noel, a Happy Chanukah, or whatever else you might be celebrating.
And a little Christmas music to send us out from my favourite musician....

Merry Christmas Jodi. I am so glad that you are recovering and your family is there to help you on your way to good health.

Ah, Merry Christmas to you too, dear Jodi. And a Happy Birthday as well. Heal nicely, be safe and we'll chat again after the holiday is over. All the best!

It's so good to hear that you are finally home and slowly recovering. You must have been through quite an ordeal - that's a long time to be in the hospital (they usually seem to kick everyone out as quickly as they can, don't they?). I hope those painkillers are doing the job and that you're able to be comfortable!

I'm glad you're on the mend, Jodi. Have a very merry Christmas!
It is so good to hear from you, Jodi!
I hope you are feeling better really soon. Stay warm and cozy, taking extra special care of yourself.
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!
Glad to hear you're on the mend. May your biggest blues be a poinsettia

Weather has been crazier than I lately. Sub-zero one day and 40s the next. We too had rain yesterday that cleared the roads and made our drive to see the grandkids on Xmas Eve one where my wife didn't have to leave footprints in the dashboard.
We almost had Turkey for all the kat kids. We just missed 4 that were on the road and didn't know which way to flee as we came upon them.
Bless you, Jodi! A happy birthday, a merry Christmas, a prosperous new year, and a rapid recovery to you!!!
jodi, I'm so glad to see you are feeling well enough to post to your blog. I hope that things just continue to improve for you until you're better than your old self.
Merry Christmas to you and lots of warm hugs, my friend.
Christmas cheer to you, Jodi. I hope each day will find you with less and less pain as you recover.
Many blessings in the New Year to you and your family.
The warmest holiday wishes to you too, Jodi! I know it has to be hard to feel all Christmas-y while being on the mend. Time WILL pass and the healing WILL happen.
Hugs (gentle ones),
Cindy
Sending healing prayers. Hope your Christmas was a good one with your family.
Do hope your Christmas was wonderous and joyful, Jodi. Blessings for a healthy and peaceful New Year!
Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery. Wishing you all good health in the coming new year!
It's so good to hear from you, Jodi -- I hope the worst of your pain is behind you. Happy Holidays to you and yours, too, friend.
Nice blog, nice to see another photographer and writer.
So glad you are back home and on your way to recovery, Jodi. I hope you had a good Christmas with friends and family. Thanks for the special treat--one of my favorite Christmas songs sung by a new favorite!
Merry Christmas, Jodi! Thanks for the peek into David Cook's emerging career. Definitely a cutie!
Jodi ~ Best wishes for a speedy recovery, safe within the the embrace of family and friends. I imagine those "catchildren" are quite helpful in the giving aid and comfort department.
Sending good thoughts your way and the hope that 2009 brings health and much happiness, as well as a banner growing season. /Deb

Jodi - I haven't visited for awhile, so I'm sorry I hadn't heard of your surgery until now...I send you all the healing thoughts I can muster across the miles of bay between us...not to mention my best woman-to-woman advice...you milk'er for all she's worth, girl!
Jodi,
Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery! What a downer to have to have surgery...particularly at this time of year.
Hope y'all have a Happy New Year and all the best in 2009!
