Where’s Darryl B?

blogging, Uncategorized 36 comments

I received an email today from a good friend on WP asking where I’d been and was I OK. I was touched that she reached out, but it occurred to me blindingly that just dropping out of sight for six weeks was not very considerate to my friends here on WP. I’m sorry. 😞

I meant to take off a week to get some stuff done. Then travel, family stuff, and a nagging but non-serious health issue came up. If I had known my hiatus was to be this long, I would have posted an out-of-pocket notice.

I’ll try to catch up with my fav writers, I know I’ve missed a lot.

Thanks everybody…this is my fav on-line community and I’ve missed reading your excellent content 😎

    1. Thanks, Andrea! Idk what happened, I got up one morning and my low back and one hip were yelling at me. Ortho peeps, x-rays, PT… it’s a process 😜😂

      Thx again for the kind words. Hope things are well with you! 😎🙏

  7. I’m so glad for you to be back, Darryl! I was thinking about you yesterday.

    It’s OK, sometimes life gives us unexpected plans we don’t anticipate, so we tend to get busier than expected.

    Have a wonderful weekend! Here’s to many amazing moments for you. I’m looking forward for reading more of your posts. ☺️

    1. Aptivi, thanks for those very kind and supportive words 😎🙏 There are many folks here who I’ll probably never meet face to face, but somehow I feel closer to them than people I see almost every day.

      Thanks again for checking in, always nice to hear from you 😊

  8. It’s funny, I had been wondering yesterday if I ought to try to email you to check that everything was okay. You have been missed. Like you, I love my WP family, but sometimes we need a little “alone time,” whether we know it or not. I’m glad you’re back, hope the medical issues are resolved, and please don’t scare us like that again. 😊❤️

    1. I’m sorry! 😮‍💨😉 Back in May, I got up one morning and my back and hip were really bothering me. Alas, not much surfing this summer as I’ve been doing my ortho-mandated stretches and liberal use of Motrin and the heating pad 😑 But it’s my fav season, I have football again, and have eluded many things on the honey do list 😂 I promise to put up a “gone fishing” sign next time!

    1. Thanks, Mike! Hopefully nothing too serious, my low back and hip have been hurting since late May. Ortho, xrays, PT, Motrin…guess next is MRI. The summer came and went with no surfing, blah.

      Gators… thanks! Heading to the local alumni club at a sports bar in a few… after the big upset of Ole Miss, bummer to lose to Mizz… maybe overconfidence… hopefully we can overcome today and bounce back with a win over South Carolina.

      Enjoy your weekend, my friend! 😎🙏

    1. Thanks, Stephanie! Yes, it’s been great. Went to TX to visit my brother and fam and we rented a lake house for a few days. Love this time of year, lower temps, the fireplace and a slower pace of life. Hope you had a nice summer as well! 😎🙏
