I'm so sorry that you fell and were in so much pain!
I'm glad that the Advil is helping and you are feeling better now... it really did sound like you cracked a rib. If the pain comes back, or you have any problems breathing, please go get an x-ray

Congratulations on getting your billing done!
I know how much you hate doing that stuff, and 3 hours is a long time to hunker down and have to do anything!

That's a good price for all that meat. Will you be freezing any of it? It sounds like you will be cooking up a storm!

I make roux's all the time. I always do it in a separate pan in case I f- up so I can fix it because I never measure anything. They usually turn out fine, but there have been times when I end up having a ton of sauce because I have had to correct it so much, and too much sauce can ruin a dish.
