welcome back, you need to go on a holiday lol

All we have had here in texas is rain, rain and did i tell you about the rain lol

heading to pensacola in August, depending on shhhhhh the H word lol

Well glad you made it back although it sounds like the journey from hell. Try a bath with loads of epsom salts. Very good for removing inflammation and swelling. Hope you feel better soon and can holiday at home. grin
