Happy to hear that. How different?
2:33 am

i found an ar4 which wasn't covered by the size i was cutting. double the size.
2:34 am
Lizlin

Happy that's working. My day was OK. MADE
2:34 am
grannyrose

but the sweats have started again..* sigh * did i tell you my next infusion is next tuesday?
2:34 am
Lizlin

Made challah, went to gym, emailed an old uni friend. Usual stuff.
2:35 am
Lizlin

Grrrr! No, happy that it's soon. Hoping for another good outcome.
2:35 am
Lizlin

Grrrr was for the sweats.
2:36 am
grannyrose

have been thinking on that space. have you a display cabinet for pretty china, crystal, silver?
2:37 am
Lizlin

No - on both counts! But we also thought about something similar. I guess we'll know it when we see it.
2:40 am
Lizlin

Both counts meaning we don't really have the type of stuff to display. Thinking possibly of something tall, with fronds or similar.

hootowl

guess I came in at the right time....That funny feeling may be a sign you are allergic to something. I have problems with Rye in all forms! Been so long I can't remember which is which. If you get dizzy on a sip, you're allergic and should switch to something else.,,I went to bourbon!
5:59 pm
