The fact that it is it is now necessary for me to blog full time from my (albeit cosy) bed is, I think you will agree, nowt short of ridiculous.

It isn’t as if I have got no bones in my legs, nor have I been struck down by a hideous disease. No Siree. I am confined to sleeping quarters because there are too many trees outside my house.

Oh yes. That is my broadband providers excuse for my poor connection. The view is just too nice. And thus the only place I have a connection in the entire house is right here in bed.

So do come gather round. See how I balance my tea on a plate and have myself comfortably equipped with a pretty tin of shortbread. Notice how I have at hand, the essentials of life in bed: namely a mobile phone, a copy of Australian Vogue Living (Where, oh where, oh where is the British Edition??) and a picture of Matthew McConaughey. Feel free to bring me grapes.   

Happiness you see is relative. And the fact that I am probably developing bed sores as we speak is something I am trying not to dwell on.

A person can get used to all manner of discomfort in the pursuit of a pretty blog.

Y’all have a nice day now.

    Bedblogging is probably going to be the next hot trend, if your picture is anything to go by! x

    Does your area have DSL? We live in an area with tons of big old trees too and it often hampers our tv reception but the satelite for the computer has been wonderful. Well, ok, except when I've crashed my computer (only a few times). But you're far more computer literate than me so I'm sure you have investigated all the options =) Blogging from bed sounds fun but my husbands office is actually in our sleeping porch and though we both work from home, I'm not sure we could work in the same room all day. =) Blessings..

    I couldn't work the internet without broadband or some similar fast connection, dial up is just too slow!

    I’m an Aussie so I’m allowed to say this – you poor thing having to read AUS Vogue!
    Give me UK Vogue any day and I don’t even bother to read magazines anymore!!
