As every week, here it is Father Dragon joining VikLit's meme to say cheers for the things that bring joy to life.
1. Another battle won. The virus is definitively on its way out. It's been two days now that I have been able to leave the Quartz chamber and do most of my usual daily activities, except going back to my exercise. I'll need some dragon vitamins (or eat a few villagers) to recover my strength but I'm definitively doing much better.
2. The fact I have been able to sleep two whole nights in a row is simply marvelous. Now THAT's another small great pleasure, uninterrupted sleep.
3. I am at 7 letters away to finish the A-Z posts. Considering I was out of the ring for 7 days or so, writing two or three posts in a day surprised even me. I do hope the weakened brain cells are not too noticeable in these new posts, though. Tassin thinks probably the X-Dwarf Files for X will betray my mental state at the time, but my Ninja Muse is more optimistic.
4. Now I need you to join me in a deafening ovation. Internet is finally working and stable again (insert ovation here.) Technician had to change some cables that were damaged. He thought it was the shredder Chihuahua dog's fault but I told him it was just Milin. Some dwarves have odd manias here.
5. Spring has arrived and it is evident in Mother Dragon's garden. When one is standing there, it's difficult to believe we're in such a big city like Mexico. So many birds, so many flowers, there's even fruit. I really can breathe peace in that place. I just hope spring doesn't get INTO the Dragon Cave just yet. Dwarves get crazier than they are already. I don't want them to go out looking for female dwarves instead of doing their minion job. I'll have to send butchering parrot to watch over them and make sure they don't break lines and escape on spring-break to Cancún.
6. I'm thankful VikLit sent me a reminder email that today is Friday. Yesterday I was under the impression it was Wednesday twice (as I was wondering why Alex didn't post a "Wednesday" post, hahahaha) and Tuesday once. Okay, I'm a bit disoriented still but I swear I am definitively improving.
So, what are you celebrating this Friday? Are you ready for the challenge? Are you ready for Spring? Have a wonderful weekend!
Healthy and stable Internet - awesome!
ReplyDeleteYou thought I'd missed a post, didn't you? I'm glad she sends reminders because I almost forgot as well.
As a matter of fact, yes I did :P
DeleteI have to say that I am envious of Mother Dragon's garden. Where I live we are still buried under snow. And thanks for reminding me that I have some work to do for the A to Z challenge. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI think it's just that winter never actually arrived here.
DeleteI'm very glad you know what day it is now lol
ReplyDeleteYay for feeling better and for sleeping good, (Insert My Ovation Here) woohoo for stable Internet!
Enjoy the weekend ;)
thanks S.K. Now let's do the wave, hahaha.
DeleteSo glad you're feeling better, Al. *stands up and cheers for that and your successful internet repairs* :D
ReplyDeleteThe wave, the wave! :D
DeleteThat's a lot of stuff to celebrate. Glad you're feeling better. I'm getting close to finishing all my A to Z posts too.
ReplyDelete:D And you've got to share BD cake.
DeleteGlad to hear you're getting better, Al. Now you can fly about and continue plundering to add to your pile of gold.
ReplyDeleteDragons do still like sitting on piles of gold, right? Or is that just something I learned from playing Dungeons and Dragons? :)
Have a great one!
Gold? Where is the gold? You've got it? Now hand it over and I'll give you a dwarf.
DeleteIt's wonderful to hear you're better, Al. Congrats on the health, the net connection,and the A-Z posts. I frequently get confused over days and I have no sickness excuse - just regular stupidity! lol
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHA, I suffer that too sometimes. Thank you, Lexa. :)
DeleteGlad to hear you are better and that your internet is all connected again. Two whole nights of sleep is a great celebration and Yay for the joys of spring.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne. I celebrate sleeping some more. :)
DeleteFridays lose their meaning when work doesn't schedule you for the regular weekday shift. Though they're still great if you're a dragon! I hear you get a distinct on matches. In case you need the help.
ReplyDeleteSince I mix every single day of the week, any day is good to be Friday, hahaha.
DeleteSo glad you're feeling better, Al! Enjoy the beautiful spring weather - we're still buried in snow in Minnesota. :(
ReplyDeleteI think spring got delayed here just as winter got delayed in the north.
DeleteYour disorientation, I'm afraid to suggest, might be the onset of old age, no? Something not to sweep under the the boulders of your cave or out into the grotto.
ReplyDeleteBut, hey, so happy for you about the internet! Great thing to celebrate. And remember my offer for you to fill in some of those A-Z challenge days!
BTW, I'm having a giveaway to celebrate 100 followers on my blog.
And did you finally choose a theme? Remind me again.
DeleteCongrats on the 100!
So glad the virus is making it's way out the door. We've been sick here, too:) Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteTake good care of yourself!
DeleteGood that you're kicking that virus out the door! I almost got a cold this week, but I tried those Emergen-C packets and wow! The cold never went full-blow. Good thing, too. Can't afford to be sick right now. :)
ReplyDeleteDon't be sick, David. No good a knight with a cold.

ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear you're doing better and you have the internet back in the cave! Mother Dragon's garden sounds like a little bit of paradise. I'm celebrating that today is the first day this week I managed to get my toddler to nap. It's a short nap, but I'm still celebrating! Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat's great, Christine! Let's celebrate then :)
DeleteGlad the virus is on its way out and that my email helped :)
ReplyDeleteA blessing I tell you. :D
DeleteMostly I'm so glad you're feeling better-- but here's to internet connectivity!
ReplyDeleteAnd hug spam!
DeleteOvation! Definitaly an ovation for connectivity! (But especially glad for the ability to sleep. Somehow, for me, that defines illness for me. No sleep.)
ReplyDeleteHm... Must get going on my A to Z posts. And I have a great idea, too!
I can guess, hahaha. Chop chop!
DeleteSo happy for you, Al! Sounds like you've had a wonderful week! Very cool about your A - Zs. Been working like crazy on my A - Z posts...finished another crochet pattern just a few moments ago. Yea! Happy Friday to you!
ReplyDeleteAnd to you too, M.J. Busy little bee.
DeleteHere's to feeling better! And awesome job on being 7 letters away from finishing your A to Z blog posts!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jackie :)
DeleteI loved your comment on my post today. Left you a reply there. Here's to Mother Dragon's garden (send pictures--I love gardens).
ReplyDeleteHere's to good health and continued good health.
Here's to those 7 letters being done and done just right!
I was pondering on the possibility. The garden is worthy. Thanks milady.
DeleteGood health and a working Internet is simply awesome!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the A to Z progress!
Thanks, michelle. Getting there. :)
DeleteI'm glad you're feeling better. And yay for internet. I don't know what I'd do without it.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a great relief. I'm one happy dragon. :D
DeleteGlad to hear you are feeling better. Good sleep is always an amazing way to start the day. I am still waiting for it to look like spring here in Ohio but happy it is already starting for you!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's on its way there, J.A. :)
DeleteHealthy, stable internet, and your sense of humor always intact - always awesome things to celebrate!!!
ReplyDeleteI understand about the time dimension/confusion thing - this last week went by so fast I didn't realize that yesterday was Friday and my Celebrate post went up half finished . . .I had started it earlier in the week and then forgotten which day it was . . oops. And today is Saturday. (I think)
Hahaha, ah yes, you do understand me. We might start a club of the forgetful days. :D
DeleteGardens, my favorite! I love sitting on the sun porch and watching the flowers grow. I daydream a lot and write too, but just enjoying the birds, the butterfly's and hummingbirds is such a blessing. I'm imagining your beautiful garden...
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. I did finish my RFW challenge, and now I'm working on finishing book 1 preparation, but taking a break to surf and comment, then back to the salt mines soon. Have a great weekend, I'm so glad you are feeling better!
You've got the whole magic of the garden with such accuracy that I suspect you've been here. Have you been stalking the dragon without him to notice, Yolanda? Hahaha. I'm glad you're being so productive. Way to go!
DeleteYou will finish those posts in no time.
ReplyDeleteSpring? I am freezing my fingers off right now.
I haven't written even ONE post for A-to-Z! Ack! I'm glad you're feeling better, and good luck with those last seven posts.
ReplyDeleteShannon at The Warrior Muse
I'm glad you're on the mend and gearing up for AtoZ. Hope you enjoyed your weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is still cold and dreary here. I would love to get to spend a day in that garden...as long as the cable shredding dwarf wasn't around!
