Jan - I am thinking of you and Belle. I will hold you in my prayers tonight and tomorrow.

Gus: I too love fall. To me it holds the promise of change. Plus the colours, the smells, and the air finally cooling after what are generally miserably hot summers...plus the rain, the rain, the rain...my favourite.

Wild:

to the rest of you would like them. Hoping your days have been, at the very least, manageable.

Well, it's official y'all: my doctor concurs with me that I do in fact have fibro. I don't know why I'm so happy about that. I guess because it's validation that all of this stuff I've been experiencing since I was about 18 (before that actually, but acutely since I was then) is not all in my head. I love my doctor, I absolutely love her to pieces and I am going to be really sad when neither my wife nor I are students here and we have to give her up. (She works out of the university clinic.)

Peaceful dreams, my friends and family.
