Sorry - My halo dimmed and fell off some time last century ...I expect everyone but me to wear a halo

See you at the $2 shop then because that were I will have to go to get a halo
Whisky Tango Foxtrot?
Mine fell off during birth, followed by me peeing on the Mayor who was also the doc (my respect for authority hasn't improved much since then either).

No you grubby pup! I said a Mom hug...Don't think Rach would like that!
You know the sort, nice, soft and reassuring. If you are still concerned, can you blow her a kiss from me instead?

I'm also very thirsty and of course we will both give her hugs

Will load all the photos and blog about it to my website this evening (www.katiepie.webs.com) but here is a quick one of me no longer pretending to be an angel - back to my old true self
A huge thumbs up to Pete and Rach for your Brilliant halos!!! Wish I had another prize for you both. You were priceless, and I couldn't have laughed more. xxx

A quick update for those who have not seen my website...
Life without the halo is hard work. But there is no reward at the end without a little hard work along the way huh? My neck and back give me new meaning of pain each day, but the muscles are gaining strength at a pleasing pace. I am working hard with my physio theropist and do exercises all day. I can now go about half an hour without any brace at all and have a little movement in turning me head again. It excites me greatly! I have two neck braces. One solid one for support whist moving about, and a soft one for sitting still and attempting to sleep with.
Sleep is a luxury I still can not have just yet, but I know that is not far away. I lay in the lazy boy chair each night as the angle of my neck in bed against a pillow is not a fond feeling that I am quite ready for. So whilst I get very little sleep, at least I am comfortable in the lounge beside the fire. I aim to give driving a go in the next couple of weeks. Docs have basically said no, but my physio and I think I can do it as I'm working so hard to get there. I can not do the whole taxi thing to the shops from out in the country much longer, as my ACC runs out very soon. So I need to get back beihnd that wheel much sooner than later and I have do doubt I can do it.
Now this is something I have not posted on facebook, nor mentioned on my website. But I wanted to tell my kiwibiker friends. Many of whome I know will support me with my decision, rather than instantly give me grief as it's not a decision they would make. I have just purchased back my writte off R6 from insurance. The frame, engine, forks etc are all ok. So over the next 4 months I will rebuild it, with the generous help of a mate, with aftermarket parts. I hope to have it ready by November for me to ride down to the Burt Munro on my own. So this is going to be a good project, and a brilliant chance to do some decent learning about bikes and their workings. I have no idea what I am doing, but do know some good mates will offer me their support along the way, advice etc. I'm not afraid to get stuck in and be the helping hand right through and I look forward to getting my much loved beast back on the road, and learning how to ride from scratch again. Not once will I ever rush this process. But, on my own, I will be able to take it at my own pace, focus on all that I need to focus on and get some training whenever I can to assist me.
Also, the job hunt has begun. With only a matter of weeks left of pay, I need to get out there and back into full time work as fast as I can. I am so excited to be returning to normal life slowly, and know the furture is going to be a very exciteing one indeed.
More updates along the way on the website.
Loads of love, Pie.
