OK Cyclelops....... I just might have you beat on the pill swallowing act. I swear I never try to take pills in public because I "look a fool." I am a closet pill swallower. I try to time my doses so NO-ONE has to / or can watch. Here is the routine....I put the pills in my mouth (of course, one at a time) take a drink, bend low at the knees and the POP-UP real quick as tho gravity is gonna help get those pills to where they need to be. I am sure it is comical none the less. Funny thing is that I go through periods where I can swallow just fine and then all of a sudden it is as tho my esophagus has a stricture and nothing passes. I am constantly choking. What a mess...only thing I can do is laugh cuz otherwise I would spend my day crying!! Out to the garden to see what the Lord has blessed us with today!! Take care everyone.
