Chrissy, pain meds back into the country

[Guest guest]

I rang customs, and as long as I have a letter detailing why I am

carrying them, they will let me take them..and I must return back to

the USA with them, and can use the same letter to bring them back. I

need 3 copies of the letter, and a copy of the prescription, and all

meds must be in their original containers...the Actiq are a pain

because the box is so big..could be so good if I could just take

them out..perhaps I shall scatter them in the bottom of my carryon

luggage (in a neat little pile) and just flatten the box so I still

have the pharmacy prescription on them.

My brother has his surgery on the 23rd June. He is starting to get

worried about it. I spoke to his fiance the yesterday, and she said

he woke up in the middle of the night with a panic attack about it.

The poor guy, he used to work in a bank, as I did, and it was

unfortunate that he was the teller at the time of both holdups, that

they held the gun to him demanding the money. The second time, they

actually made him walk outside so they could get away. After that

the bank put him in a department so he didn't have to face the

general public, but it has left him with panic attacks. It's bad

luck to have that happen once, but the odds of having that happen

twice must surely be as rare as winning the lottery.

Gosh, it just seems not quite real that i'm getting to go back home

for a few weeks...*cath is secretly wanting to jump up and down for

joy *LOL*

has been on a plane before. We flew up to Canada 18 months

ago. She was fine on the plane, she slept the whole way from

Knoxville to Pittsburgh, then stood on my lap singing Wiggles songs

from Pittsburgh to Toronto...and she slept most of the way back, but

then she was 18 months old..things might be much different now *L*

My doctor did say she wouldn't disagree with me giving a cold

& flu chew to help her sleep if I needed to...especially since she

herself just had a baby and can understand how it might be

beneficial *L*...the antihistamine in it knocked emily out for a few

hours when she had to take them for her cold & flu a few weeks back.

I was going to send you a postcard from there...and I have a digital

camera, so will be able to send you some pics by email also,

although that will not be done until I get back...

Well, time for me to try and look for that post on here again, and

then deep clean a room in this house..decided if I thoroughly clean

out one room a day, the house will be immaculate by the time I

leave..except for emily pulling it apart again *L*

Bye for now,
