HI VERA.

I WAS GOING TO WORK ON THE HOUSE A BIT TODAY, BUT PRIMARILY HAD A

REPORT TO WRITE.

GOT NEITHER DONE.

MANAGED TO GET A BIT OF REORGANIZING DONE - AND FIXED LUNCH FOR

FAMILY.

THEN - WHAM!

SOME WOULD SAY I HAVE PAF. I DON'T KNOW. I JUST KNOW THAT MY GUT

BECAME UNCOMFORTABLE - THEN TOTALLY DEBILITATING. I ATE NOTHING

(EXCEPT A FEW VERY SMALL MORSELS TO MAKE SURE THE SEASONING WAS

CORRECT) BUT SURE PUKED UP THE ACID. I WAS IN A WORLD OF HURT.

MESSED ME UP ALL AFTERNOON. I WAS EVEN... CRYING. I MEAN - I WAS

HURTING BIG TIME. BUT... NOT SURE THIS WAS DUE TO WORKING ON HOUSE

YESTERDAY (AND I'D HARDLY CALL THAT WORKING - AS I WOULD DO A LITTLE -

THEN REST A LOT - THEN DO A LITTLE - THEN REST A LOT... SO... YES,

I DID REST. DIDN'T USE TO DO THAT - BUT JUST CAN'T GO AND GO

ANYMORE - BODY WON'T LET ME :-)

ANYWAY, NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED WITH GUT. FINALLY FELL ASLEEP AFTER A

COUPLE OF HOURS. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN TIRED - BUT WASN'T TIRED AT ALL

TODAY. IF I WAS TIRED - I WOULD HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP WHEN I FIRST

STARTED GETTING BAD.

TONIGHT - BACK TO NORMAL. THAT'S CERTAINLY NOT " HEALTHY " - BUT IT'S

A WHOLE LOT BETTER THAN I WAS EARLIER TODAY. I CAN HANDLE THIS. I'M

NOT TOO PROUD TO ADMIT THAT I COULD NOT HANDLE HOW I FELT EARLIER.

ALL AROUND HERE KNEW IT TOO - EVEN OUR PESKY HAIRLESS DOG :-)

HEY - CAN YOU SEE THE FIRE TONIGHT? HEARD IT'S NOT TOO FAR FROM

YOU. SOUNDS LIKE YOU LIVE A BIT OUT THERE IF YOU'VE GOT COYOTES. WE

HAVE MAINLY WILD DOGS OUT HERE. PACKS OF 'EM. WORSE THAN ANYTHING -

AS THEY'RE TRUE SURVIVORS - CRUEL TO THE HILT. OF COURSE, THOSE

COYOTES ARE PRETTY NASTY THEMSELVES - LURING OUT MALES TO MATE THEIR

FEMALES FROM THE FARMS HERE - THEN NAILING THEM AS A PACK. DOGS JUST

DON'T STAND A CHANCE.

WELL, GOTTA GO. NOW I'LL GET TO TRY TO EXPLAIN WHY I HAVE NOT GOT

THOSE REPORTS DONE. OH WELL - BECOMING A PRO NOW. USUALLY IT'S JUST

MY BODY THAT STOPS ME - BUT NOW MY COMPUTER IS DOWN TOO. AT LEAST

I'VE GOT MY WIFE'S MACHINE TO ALLOW ME TO KEEP IN TOUCH :-)

ALL FOR NOW.

CATCHA LATER - SURROGATE MOM :-)
