Marie, Maybe you should have had a little of the vodka and you might not have hurt yourself when you fell. You know God takes care of people who drink. Glad you didn't break the bottle or your leg. Pat

Marie, I am so sorry to hear that you fell and that on top of having back spasms and being on meds. Will pray that you are back in the swing within the next couple of days. When they put me on crutches I pole vaulted and broke a crutch the first day. My first name is KLUTZ!!! LOL My husband pulled the crutch together with those plastic tie things, because he knew I would just break a new crutch. Have to say he was right. I wish God would give us a little more agility as we grow older. I did have to laugh about the Soma.....Coma. Sounds like something my kids would tell me. Spent the day looking for CD's for my mother. Try finding the Mills Brothers and the Ink Spots in the stores today. Finally, found a couple and one 1940-1944 hits. I had a headache when I got home. Young people go into the stores and turn everything on as loud as can be. And, sorry, but I am not a fan of some of this modern so-called music. Pat

Hi, Can I jump in. When I get pink eye they gave me Boric Acid. The doctors still do. I cannot take sulfa drug antibiotics. I also had it for a sty. Bosch & Lomb makes it. It is a prescription however. I remember my grandmother giving me Lydia Pinkum pills for female problems. It worked really good. She got it from the pharmacist behind his counter (not a prescription) now you have to order it on the internet. Times have changed.

Doris - Hope your sore throat is history when you read this - are you gargling with salt water - Back in the 1980's I had a sore throat and wanted to gargle with salt water and a little drop of iodine - had none - went to drug store and I was told NO!! - they answered me as if I was Lucretia Borgia ---same thing when I wanted to buy Boric Acid another time for a sty eye wash -----No more of that stuff over the counter - wonder if we can get that GI Gin - Hydro Turpin something it was called (real name) Marie G

Oh my, another poor baby for the list. I hope you recover so you can go to work tomorrow. Sounds like you blew the holiday pounds I think you gained two today. Ah, but didn't it taste so good.

Diesel, Well you're right, but I paid $5.00 and won $1.00 and took another ticket and lost that soooooo = didley . Stop showing off with your math.

Norma annd Diesel, >   Hi ! > I,m asking  Santa to ge me a metal detector ( magnetomer ) that can also work under water. a new one is 500.00 bucks or so, bu a good used one is fine. lotsof bottles down  here, but I was never interested eugh to g in search of, Right now anything that would eventually  produce money would be nice..selling what I would find to     a serious collector. lots  of artifacts dowwn here, but burried by silt...We would need a god hurrican.where the sea vomits up some of her tresures..disgussing, but sounds poetic.

All joking aside, that sounds like a lot of fun. Now if you've been a good girl, Santa just might leave you one. I already have a metal detector, but it doesn't work under water. We have a few State Parks around us, and there's always someone out there every night just before closing working the beaches like a bunch of hound dogs. I found a watch this year near the kid's play ground, but it doesn't keep good time. I'm going to turn it in to the lost & found next trip there. Them cheep Kids couldn't lose a good working one.

I've managed to avoid hurting myself since the fall off my bike back in October, when I bruised my knee to the point where I had a 5 x 4 x 1-inch swelling on it.

Norma, We have Direct TV but have a hard time getting the Giant games. We have to have an antenna to get it because Direct TV is not allowed to give it to us. Something about being able to pick it up with antenna it is against some law to get it from satellite. Just another gimmick. It was fine until 9-11.
