Guest guest Posted August 5, 2000 Report Share Posted August 5, 2000 Rosemary, I spoke too soon, I'm feeling kind of crappy now. For some reason, I just got a fever of 100.6 and chills. Hope it goes away. I'm going to take another siesta now! You are most certainly shrinking. Oh, I tried a low-fat ritz cracker and it's staying down. Progress!
