{Happy 2016}

Sorry for my absence...
Got a very bad flu and was in bed for the past couple of days.
So much for getting the flu shot on December 7!
Hope that tomorrow I feel better and can resume daily routine.

Wishing you all a very HAPPY 2016 and in good health!

Those lovely Camellias always bloom at this time of the year.
They look so perfect!

  5. I had a bad flu in November before the flu shot which I had skipped last year. So in November I did take the shot. Wish you a very Happy New Year anyway and get well soon.

  6. Lieve Mariette,

    Het overkomt je helaas op de meest ongelegen tijd van het jaar en er is maar een remedie tegen, goed uitzieken en rustig aan doen.

    Wens jou en Pieter een mooi 2016 vol gezondheid, geluk,liefde en tevredenheid.

    Wat is die camelia toch een prachtige bloem.

    Liefs en beterschap,
    Ger

  8. Dearest Mariette,
    I'm so sorry you have been sick. Continue you take it easy; flu is insidious and can lead to secondary infections if you do too much too early.
    Happy New Year...........*s*

  10. Happy New Year my dear friend .... There was definitely something going around this holidays season it left some of us on sofa and/or bed for days. Just starting to get back to life myself. I hope that you are feeling better too and can return to your regular activities. Being unable to function is no fun. May 2016 bring you both lots of abundance, good health, laughter, travels and adventures!! Thinking of you hugs and kisses from Toronto, Canada - C.

  21. Oh, jetzt lese ich erst von Deiner Grippe - ich wünsche Dir schnelle Genesung! Die echte Influenza hatte ich schon lange nicht mehr, aber ein grippaler Infekt kann einen auch ganz schön mitnehmen.
