Teeth So THEN

The adults out of a demonstration of utter maturity and a desire for restoration of youth took up..........

RUGBY!.... followed by yet another healthy discussion of aches and pains.

Har Har dee Har Har Har,
Not pen and Paper,
Quill, ink, and paper,
no, clay tablet and stylus [can you imagine, neither Apple, nor any competitor invented the stylus]
Hah!
C'est moi,

Default Just back from vacation

Had a great time....much needed respite from living in this world of pain that we can get so caught up in! Beautiful waves rolling in, warm days with balmy breezes...but I did notice something interesting. When I started this thread on barometric pressure, I didn't stop to also consider how the heat/cold affects my pain. While there I often had to go in the A/C to cool off, or jump in the cold pool and I noticed almost an auto. drop in all-over pain. I did notice that my cervical pain increased with the higher temps. and also my fingers/wrists felt rather sore and swollen. So no moving there permanently

I didn't have any problems with my eye pressure while there, even though my dr. gave me meds. to take in case the pressure in the plane cabin got to me, but never had to touch the stuff.

I'm awful sleepy now as I was just so excited to be living "normal" for a week that didn't get much sleep...so, off to bed...and tomorrow the unpacking begins .

Why is is that no matter what you take, even it if's never worn, it smells of "beach"???

One terrific blessing on the way there and back...we got upgraded to first class for free! Was the beginning and end of a great vacation!

Heart Bee You Tea Full

THAT is how I characterize your wondrous vacation Fiona!

Yup, the only thing to do with vacation clothes is donate them and return with empty luggage. Less to carry. Charity is able to help others. Go to TJ Min and purchase more clothing for minimal cost and live life without the unpacking!

Barometric pressure, weather, such do not affect the situation I live. Hurt happens. Gout is interesting, and I am so glad my lower legs are numb as Doc said, lest I really feel its pinch. I pray your eye will be well.

Glad you experienced first class. Cool , movie STARS. Yup, we will see you on the silver screen before you know it.
Uh Huh,
Yup,
Before you know it,
Mark56zzzzzz

Thumbs Up First-Class Indeed!

Well you CERTAINLY deserve first class my friend!
I'm so happy for you to have been able to get away. Sounds like it went off without a hitch.
You're tired of course, but it's the 'good' kind of tired.

Take it easy and rest up
Rae

Default Welcome back

Sounds like you had a fantastic holiday Fiona. Bet you feel refreshed if somewhat tired.

Good luck with the unpacking and laundry

Jackie
