Pat, over at The Weaver of Grass , will turn 90 years old on Halloween. She can always be counted on for regular blog posts, so it's a bit concerning that she hasn't updated her blog for over a week now.
However, I'm going to hope that she's simply caught up in all the preparations...perhaps simply getting rested up for the big day. I do not know, but just know that I am wishing you a very happy birthday weekend.
I, too, have been concerned. The last time she "went missing" she had fallen and had been hospitalized. I don't know if any of the other bloggers in the Yorkshire dales knows about her but I do wish someone could give us an update.
ReplyDeleteIt is concerning. Her blog is the first thing that I check each morning.
DeleteI hope she's ok. That's the problem with blogging, isn't it? We never know what happens to people that we have a relationship with, albeit long distance.
ReplyDeleteThe worst thing is worrying about overstepping my bounds. She feels like a very good friend to so many...yet to her family, I imagine that I am a nosy nobod.
DeleteVery worrying as I'm sure she would be writing and posting if she was able
ReplyDeleteUsually at least a comment if she has no time to post, but I know her hands give her problems.
DeleteI've had probably more than a handful of blogs stop for no reason whatsoever that cause me to suspect the worst. I hope this isn't the case.
ReplyDeletePat has an awful lot going on right now. It is possible that perhaps she simply has a lot on her plate. She is a popular gal!
DeleteI've noticed too and hope she's ok.
ReplyDeleteI think we all do.
DeleteWell I think we must hope for the best. She does have a son by the way and I am sure he will keep us informed. Her braveness in sitting at her desk and typing a blog out to keep us all happy is a very courageous thing to do. And I am sure we all wish her the best on her coming birthday. Wherever she is she will know that our thoughts are with her.
ReplyDeleteI know. I think also, the connection to others makes her feel less isolated. I did message her son. I hope he does not think I am rude.
DeleteGood idea…
DeleteI'm so glad you did.
DeleteI haven't followed Weaver myself but I'm sending her good wishes.
ReplyDeleteWell, I will pass them along.
DeleteI haven't followed Weaver but lost a lovely friend two years ago who had hip surgery that went wrong, then caught Covid. I don't know that she died but she stopped blogging and hasn't responded to any emails or comments. I think about her often. We do get connected through this blogging world. Hope she's OK.
ReplyDeleteWe do get connected. I hope she's okay too.
DeleteAgree…worried but hoping it is a birthday celebration
ReplyDeleteYou and me and a lot of others.
DeleteWhen I lost most of computer address and blogs, I could not find you but went to her blog and there I was able to get back to you. She is on Two men and a little farm so I went through them, found her and then you. I hope all is well with her.
ReplyDeleteHow funny Ellie. I never knew how you found me! But I am glad that you did!
DeleteHas anyone tried emailing her?
ReplyDeletePixie! What a genius you are. I sent her birthday card and letter out, and I dropped a note card in the mail to say how much she was missed. But she has such a problem with her hands. I told her early on that she should never feel compelled to reply, to simply enjoy. I don't get replies to the e-mail, and it never even occurred to me to send her one now. But it would get word to her quickly of our concern. I did just that.
DeleteThis blogging community is so caring. I do hope someone can find out if she is OK.
ReplyDeleteI've always like the sharing that we all do amongst ourselves. To me, Those friendships seem as real to me as the friends I can reach out and hug.
DeleteShe's a fighter. I'm betting she'll be back. Nice of you to think of her.
ReplyDeleteOh, I do expect she'll be back.
DeleteIt is worrisome when a blogger we've come to know suddenly goes silent. I hope she's OK.
ReplyDeleteShe has a lot of fans hoping the very same thing.
