I found the video quite intense to watch for I was waiting for the big boom! That post made me laugh. Personally I love thunder and lightening which is good because we get lots of wild storms here.

I'm wishing you a full recovery asap! Especially relief from pain, which can be all encompassing. Chronic pain is no fun, and unless you have experienced it, it's hard to understand what a person experiencing bad pain is enduring. <br /><br />I like the idea of pinot noir. I'd have to double dose though, because I can't take aspirin. Sometimes playing compelling music loudly over and over has helped me. My Dad swore by a good slug of Scotch and diving under a thick pile of blankets. My first husband, who was a quadriplegic, swore by marijuana. It was the only thing that could stop his pain when it flared. Take care, my friend.<br /> Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-40549318762421967782018-05-26T15:13:42.028-07:002018-05-26T15:13:42.028-07:00Thanks dear Susan.

I'm using aspirin and pinot noir now. However, corner tobacco store owner was setting up a display of marijuana recently and sadly told me I couldn't get any with an insurance copay. So I'll stick with aspirin.Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-71451045165837347282018-05-26T13:29:11.895-07:002018-05-26T13:29:11.895-07:00Hang in there, dude.
