| Nikon COOLPIX |
Mother's Day came and went and in a similar wave came an unhealthy bout of bronchitis, pharyngitis and all of the malaise that travel with these germicidal vagabonds. Sadly, I am still dealing with the fallout of bacterial nonsense.
In spite of my debilitated state, I was elated to find that my husband and son gifted me with a new Nikon COOLPIX.
Typically, we do not exchange gifts on colloquial holidays, however serendipitous, I made like a bandit this year. Favored by good fortune, what can I say?
By the by, I am partial to Nikon cameras as a Nikon was my first tool of the trade at the University of Miami when I was learning to paint the world RED a few short years ago.
Also for this very same occasion, my princess of a daughter and prince of a son-in-law gave me a blogging mug to accompany my endless verbal and written banter. Thanks to them, I resolved to write a brief state of disposition prior to the daily 'cafe du matin'.
To my disappointment, I have not been able to employ, nor mug nor camera, as I have succumbed to the cough-coughs of displeasure! I vow to pick up where I left off many words and pictures ago.

| Count down on the blogging mugness! |
An energetic countdown has begun at our homestead as we inch closer to our reunion with the Iberian peninsula, family and friends. My bags are not packed and my list of to-buy items are almost bought and ready for travel.
I am pleased to say that I have acquired thoughtful gifts for the names on 'THee A' list; all items will travel discretely and legally within the confines of a small suitcase. I am especially thrilled at the artful acquisition of one of Paul Benjamin's Photographs titled, "three strikes and you are out." This image was taken as a lightening storm covered Miami's famous stomping ground of South Beach! Ahh, that's not all; to my good fortune it has been signed and dedicated by Mr. Benjamin. No doubt, Miami lightening will be travelling with me, in hand, on the plane.
