Feeling a bit better - thanks to all who sent prayers, good wishes, and concern. I appreciate each of you!

The linky is below - would love to see your eye candy, hexie or otherwise. Closes Monday, midnight.
And look what I found visiting Mary's great link this week. Another linky party! It happens every second Saturday of the month:
