Oh, HELLO, Internet!
Wow. It sure has been a long time since I’ve posted anything in this here space. Let’s see if I can even remember how to write a blog. Shall we?
First, let me start by saying, “I’m sorry!” for being MIA for the past two weeks. After my fake vacation [which was wonderful, by the way] I became very ill with bronchitis and strep throat. Needless to say, I was laid up in bed for quite a few days, hopped up on antibiotics. And when I am that sick, I don’t answer my phone, I don’t return text messages, I don’t check my emails, and I’m certainly not capable of writing or reading any blogs.
Thankfully, after several days in bed: sleeping, watching television / movies, and, eating my weight in junk foods, I am feeling MUCH better. However, I think all of that laying around, eating garbage, and taking steroids to clear out my lungs, helped me to pack on at LEAST 10 to 15 pounds. Seriously ya’ll. Just the other day, I knew it was definitely time to go on a crash-diet because when I bent over to pick something up off the floor of the pharmacy, I split my shorts. And, I’m pretty sure the people who witnessed that did NOT enjoy getting a good look at my granny panties. *sigh*
Moving along….
Ever since my car accident, I’ve been doing a lot of walking. And, I suppose that’s a good thing, except for when it’s 106 degrees outside with 99.9% humidity. Sometimes, I really think I would be cooler, if I set myself on fire.
In any event, like I said, I’ve been doing a lot of walking, mostly up a gigantic hill to get to my local country club. A very dear friend of mine, who owns one of those cool electric scooter thingys, decided to take pity on me. So, while I was on my Stay-Cation, having a blast, I had the pleasure of riding that bad boy around my complex.
And here’s how that worked out…
Clearly, I should be wearing a helmet.
*beep! beep!*
I believe at this point, it’s safe to say, “I’M BACK!” And, oh, how I’ve missed you all so very much! I’ll be making my blog rounds and catching up with everyone this week. In fact, I’m probably leaving you a comment right now.
And that’s a wrap folks!
Love the red!
Hey Sandra! Yes, I had strep a few weeks ago. I guess it came back! I’ve
missed you bunches. It’s good to be blogging agin!
That looks like a lot of fun! I want one now, would be perfect for my work journey 🙂
You should definitely get one!
And the scooter came in at the time you were adding all that weight? I can’t even remember now, I’m sure that helped with the exercise haha….but still, you looked fabulous when I saw you. Im glad to hear you are doing much better and also, that means you are returning the scooter some time soon? I was hoping for more fodder due to your adventures on that thing. But yeah, better to wear a helmet, which by the way would make you look hilarious.
Besos.
Yay!! I’m so happy you are back! I missed you so much. BTW, that scooter looks like it was made for a midget. You handled it very well I must say. Woot! 😉
Oh my god, that’s the cutest little scooter ever! Glad to have you back, Meleah!
When you get sick you don’t mess around, do you? Glad you are up and around again. Summertime is not time to be inside and out of commission. That’s what winter is for, right?

Sorry to hear you were sick.
Glad you’re better.
And really glad to see you having fun on the scooter. The video was hilarious, with the appropriate rap in the background. You are funny!
Looks like you had fun on the scooter!!
That is so cool. I want one. I would have so much fun on it. Thrilled you are back and feeling better. Brooooooommmmmm!!!
Welcome back ….. glad your better

I totally need a helmet! And, I’m glad you didn’t think I was FAT when we
met! xoxo
Hey Dana! I’ve missed you too! xoxo
Thanks, love!
Exactly!
I just had to use that rap song!
I did!
You should totally get one!
🙂
No leather jacket?
Nope! It was 106 degrees!
Glad you’re feeling better! What a good friend you have to lend you his scooter. It looks like you had a ton of fun with it!
It’s a blast!
I’m glad you’re feeling better … it’s good to have you back. I lover your video, but oh, my, such language! Tsk.
Yeaaahhhh! Mel’s back and badder than eva!
I always pictured you as a biker babe, just not a red scooter type. Hope you are not planning on taking that out on the NJTPk.
HA!
HELL NO!! I’d get crushed on the NJTPK with this thing!
oh my gaud, i’m late, but how cute are you on that scooter!!! now that that’s out of the way: wear a freaking helmet. don’t make me come down there. actually i want to come down there and visit you.
Um…yes please come visit me! Like, immediately!
Ye gods, bronchitis AND strep throat at the same time? I don’t know if I could survive that! I really don’t – I have a muscular condition that makes life harder than need be when I’m perfectly healthy. Having aches and pains with two diseases that come with fever… BBBBBR-R-R-R-R – that is a lot.
Some day I will need a scooter and seeing how you are enjoying life with it makes me feel a lot better about the idea. We are going to Disney World in the autumn, and we are making plans for me to have one. The prospect of all that walking and standing made me realise I will be taking all the fun out of it for my husband if I have to stop every couple of meters and then then start whinging about all the walking!

Oh nice! Enjoy!
