So glad the week ultimately went well, Seska. It's a nerve-wracking enough situation when the relationship conforms to expected norms; when you step outside that box, be it cultural or societal or whatever, it just adds to the stress-factor. I remember being petrified at meeting Lewis' family because they were Jewish and I wasn't and had no intention of converting, nor did he want/expect me to. Worked out okay in the end, but it was initially rather scary for me.
The back's much better, thanks. Looks like it was a very temporary tweak, thank goodness. Waking up with a sandpaper throat on the other hand... Gah. So not what I needed.
Seska, I'm glad there has been improvement with the almost-in-laws.
Geez, Barb, if it's not one thing, it's another. Get better soon.

Tell me about it. It's rather annoying for someone like me who rarely gets sick, but it just seems that the first half of this year has been all about putting my body systems back together. Bored now.
Falling over my own feet and injuring myself, that's another thing... Every time Jasmine tries to jump on the bed and misses (because she's a bit of a clod) Lewis says, "She really IS your dog, isn't she?"
I know I said I was going to make an appointment for a physical, but I want to change clinics, and now I can't tell who is best to see.
I have been improving everyday. But I know I should stay home Tuesday. It is a big day at work -- and I know I can't do it. But they will be way shorthanded. But I can't go in. I've been up an hour and it is time for a nap.
Aw beth, take care of youself. They'll be short-handed and it'll suck, but ultimately, they'll survive.
Ok I officially told work I wasn't going in tomorrow.
Now to stop feeling so guilty
beth, stop feeling guilty at all. I bailed on work today just because I need sleep (and peace and quiet)...you've been sick, and they will be OK.
The rest of y'all, take care of yourselves also!
Beth, stop feelin guilty. You need to take care of you.
I've been on hold with BofA for 80 minutes. Anybody got a good joke, story, anecdote, youtube vid?..
