Disappearing Act

Hello friends,

in case you've wondered why my posts were still popping up but I was deserting you: yes, the posts were scheduled in advance, and yes, of course in the meantime I was dealing with yet another "situation". My dad fell at home and banged his head on a piece of furniture, which resulted in him being admitted to the hospital on Saturday morning. He's been in short-stay observation for three days, since the CAT scan revealed a small cerebral hemorrhage (8 mm/0,3 inches), which is especially bad for someone who takes anticoagulants (he underwent aortic valve replacement surgery many years ago). At present, he's home, though pretty banged up (he broke a couple of ribs too), and due to go back on Sunday for a new scan. So now I have to go on errands for my parents too...I already have my problems at home and I'm tired, y'all. I'm sorry for disappearing on you again, but I've been lacking the time and energy to visit your blogs. Seriously, anytime you see my posts manifest but I'm not interacting with you (except for approving comments on my own blog and replying to them), rest assured that real life caught up with me and threw me yet another punch. Well, enough of that - I just wanted you to know that I'm planning to resurface over the weekend. Thank you for not giving up on me when I disappear, and for understanding 💚.

Welcome to Offbeat YA! I love hearing from you and always - I mean always - acknowledge your comments. This used to be a full democracy place, because anyone could comment, regardless of being a registered member of any community. Unfortunately, I had to turn off the Anonymous comment option, because I was getting too much spam that didn't get filtered. So, you’ll need to have a Google account (Gmail will suffice) in order to comment. Sorry about that. Anyway, jump right in! Come on, you know you want to...😉 And be sure to leave a link!
BTW...I don't care if a post is a million months old - you comment, I respond. And you make my day 😃.
Note: this is an award/tag free blog. Sorry I can't accept nominations due to lack of time.
