Hope you are feeling much much better now Lois! Love, Rosemary xx
I am very sick with the flu. I am pretty sure it's H1N1. It's a really, really bad flu - but I have had just as bad with a much worse cough. The most worrisome symptom, (since I am not throwing-up - I rarely do - unless drinking), is the heaviness...
OOps - thanks Rosemary....I guess I am dancing faster than I can think - dancing - hmmm - metaphorically of course.

H1N1
I am very sick with the flu. I am pretty sure it's H1N1. It's a really, really bad flu - but I have had just as bad with a much worse cough. The most worrisome symptom, (since I am not throwing-up - I rarely do - unless drinking), is the heaviness on the lungs. Strange cause there is no signs of congestion, yet I have a heavy congested feeling on the lungs, and I started feeling that almost immediately. In fact, I was contemplating not sleeping at all in case I had respiratory failure - that's h… Continue

The St. John's International Women's Film Festival
Started before opening night, I met with Carol Whiteman - the amazing and beautiful Carol Whiteman. Opening night was lovely. From Noreen's wonderful speech and funny quips (Clyde Wolverine Jackman) to the engaging imagery of Love and Savagery. I also had a wonderful time at the reception. Last night I saw some films at the Masonic Temple - after going to the Majestic by mistake. While the sound at the Masonic was crap (being honest), the films were beautiful and of such a high quality. Really w… Continue

Collateral damage
Last night a woman ran down a young cyclist on the corner of Rawlins Cross. The young man was on a cross walk. She was upset. He seemed stunned, as he leaned against the Hungary Heart and rubbed his jaw. Everyone was very sympathetic to her as she was crying and all. Within a few minutes, he had himself kinda stored away, out of the crowd as he was obviously in some form of mild (at least) shock. He didn't want help, seem dazed and said the wrong things. She was doing all the appropriate things… Continue

- Good to hear. Yes, it's the time of year for colds and I am crossing my fingers to make it through this trip without picking something up, but planes are murder on the immune system. I have my little bottle of hand sanitizer.... are you still planning on a Toronto trip? rx

- Hi my dear - loved the pix I saw from B'more. So glad it was fun! Hope you've feeling better today. Don't worry about the flu!! We are the wrong age anyway. As for the vaccine - I'm with David Suzuki and Rick Mercer. They're getting the vaccine because it's the sensible thing to do. As Suzuki says, do Canadians really believe our scientists, doctors, government (including Johnny!) want to poison us? Or that they haven't looked carefully at the pros and cons, considered risks, know all the possible problems? Don't let the flakes get you down! If I had young kids I'd be lined up long ago.....
I'm off to LA tomorrow! Looking forward to it. Lots happening on film scene. And Hold Fast is in to the agencies for support.... More later. Much love dearest, Rosemary xxx

- Thinking of you too my dear and always hoping that things are looking up for you. I heard from Ann A that she had spent some time in the basement at Rabbittown with you and loved being with you. Of course! I am working for a few weeks with a production company here - very strange to be doing the day-job thing.... Having a little ladies lunch this weekend - will write with news - Mary S in town for a few days. Glad you are having fun with new play - I am always following your exploits! rose xx

- Oh my dear you are welcome. I just wish I could make it better. I was amazed to see that since your notice regarding Saw Wood this weekend that 36 different people have come on line to take a look. If only there was a little money somewhere!! Good luck with the play this weekend - I would love to see the piece under your direction.. xx

- Thanks for the posts Lois - it got me to make a few changes as I have been slow off the mark over the past couple of weeks with the move to Toronto. But it is amazing the amount of activity as soon as a message goes out and then people tune in to see what's happening on the site. I can't believe another crosswalk accident and as you say, so strange the way the driver gets all the sympathy and the victim is kind of still 'in the way'.
