Deja Vu! I could have sworn I read this already and responded.

You take care of yourself. I've heard boils can be caused by too much sock man eye candy time!

Joann-Glad to hear you've got everything cleared up. Sounds really painful. I used to get those when I was a kid. I've had a typing/spelling problem lately too. Sometimes I come across a post of mine with all the mistakes and I think--wow, people must really think I'm stupid. Anyway--glad to see you back and healthy again. forgot to tell you where Dennis got his apartment. Ya know those apartments on Storrow drive where the sign reads "If you lived here, you'd be home by now"--well that is where he will be. Not as convenient as Harbour Towers--but it will be good.

i am glad you atre doing better. I was joking yesterday about getting all those forwarded things from you but never a note. My aunt had one of those under her arm when my mom died. It was about half the size of a baseball and right in her bra line. it was puirple, black, red. You name it. It was draining a little. I was scared to death it was a cancer come thru the skin and she wouldn't go to the doc about it until after moms funeral. She had to have all the antibotics and he lanced it and all. I know what you are talking about the smell it is the worst thing in the world. Well, almost. Hope you feel better soon.
