sore on lip

[Guest guest]

Hi Sara,

What I also remember about France is it getting dark really late at

night. 10:30-11:00 at night and it's still light outside. I couldn't

sleep those first few nights. That was in Paris. Is it anything like

that where you are? Also I watch QVC a lot (shopping channel) a lot,

and they tape shows from Vicenza, Italy, selling jewelry. Is that far

from you?

I highly recommend Oral-B electric toothbrushes. I got one free from

my OD when I first began treatment, and I bought one for myself to

use at work. It really is a godsend, because I tend to be heavy

handed with a manual toothbrush, and the electric one really does do

all the work for me.

Are there any national holidays in Italy that you celebrate?

I'll be posting a profile shot of myself. I'm calling it Joanne,

profile.

You know what, I have a sore on my lip, corresponding with where I

got the bone scraped down/stitches. Is it a canker sore or a cold

sore? I don't get cold sores or fever blisters, so I'm wondering.
