YEP, check the inside when something is missing. I'm so glad you have the same experience. <br /><br />I am trying to get better.

Today, I took the antibiotic, felt rotten and hurt and just had to sleep. Then, I got up and ate and threw up in the store. The pharmacist told me to stop taking the doxycycline, that I must be allergic, that he was not aware of this being a problem with anyone. I think he checked it out. So, now I have one huge pain in my stomach. It feels like I have a sore place when the food goes into my stomach. <br /><br />Wow! I have a novel started, so maybe I should do that, too. I would like to hear more but don't want to interrupt your writing. Good luck. I will be pulling for your finishing the novel.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-55378135614236241552013-11-10T18:44:28.420-06:002013-11-10T18:44:28.420-06:00I do hope you get better soon!

My grandmother is currently on antibiotics for bronchitis, too, and they're giving her the diarrhea. <br /><br />You've been sick for way too long now! Your doctor(s) should be brainstorming for a better solution than antibiotics that are just coming back up!<br /><br />I've been doing NaNoWriMo this month, so Saturday's are the days I try to catch up my word count. I write for as long as I can, and then I get up and stretch, refill my water cup, read blogs or play a game, and then repeat the whole process. My plan is to end up with a novel on Nov. 30. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-56340627335539058272013-11-10T08:12:35.319-06:002013-11-10T08:12:35.319-06:00Sue,

I am not flexible to anything more than occasional care to my feet. I have not listened to NPR in ages. I should be ashamed. Tomorrow will be a good day for me. No, I have not seen nor heard a raccoon. The hens did not get out of the pen all of yesterday. That has not happened in month. They were not happy today, at all.
