I just want to say thank you for all the wishes and stuff. I’ve had the worst kind of knock, well no, the worst kind of knock is when you find your four month-old daughter dead in her cot, but this feels as bad and yes I would know.<\/p>\n
But I’m coping with help from friends (real and virtual) and it’s amazing how supportive all this really is.<\/p>\n
If you’ve been with me from the start of this one (or even since the start of my first one – http:\/\/fictionrus.blogspot.com – since March 2004) you’ll know how much I love my blog, treat it as my online journal, and that it is a no-holds-barred place where everything gets written down that comes in to my head or falls in to my life?<\/p>\n
Well I’m not sure the details of this knock will. Instead of standing up and taking a swing at it I might duck this one.<\/p>\n
This week has been dire for me but marvellous for my weight loss (total food since Sunday up until last night: one bowl of soup and one bowl of pasta).<\/p>\n
But I just want to say thanks. I’ll creep back gradually I guess.<\/p>\n

p.s. I’m closing comments on this post because then you won’t feel you have to write something in response and I won’t get embarrassed reading it. Deal? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
