a tale of tails, tenacity, and tedium, as told by me, usually barefoot and bellowing

This N That


Not sure if this can be read but Andrew is doing the musical pre-show for the ICARE fund raiser.  Just for your viewing pleasure I have enlarged it so you may read that below.  Not one bit proud of this self-taught guitar-playing grandson am I?  It's blurry but the bottom name is his.

The itching has finally ended I am glad to tell you.  I have NEVER itched like that in my life.  I tried to blame every varmit I could think of but shoulda blamed myself.  With all the things I  used on my body, it's a wonder there was not some giant chemical explosion.  I even thought about horse wormer...Ivermetin...killing my pests from the inside out.  Turns out the only pest was me.  Allegra cured it all.  I treated myself for lice, looked for fleas, ticks, chiggers...could find nothing except a stressed out ole lady who needed some Allegra.  Who would've thought stress could trigger that???

Me, stressed????  Never!

Wishing you an itch-free music filled weekend.

Sounds like an allergy and if Allegra tood care of it then I'd say Dr. Teresa is right.

Yay on Andrew. I love it that he's working hard for his passion.

Glad to hear the itching has stopped. I have heard that stress can do that. Sorry you confirmed it.

Congratulations to Andrew!

You have every right to be proud. :o)

I'm sure my eczema is stress related. The more stress, the bigger the itch.

Andrew will do great. It will be another wonderful performance for you to be proud of. Wish him all the best from me.

That child (um..young man) is like your own and you have every single right to be bursting with pride about him! Yep, every right in the world! Brag all you want..shout it from the roof tops!

I just went through an itching thing...not sure what they gave me but it took TWO doses. I think I picked something up from one of those garage sales..now we clean our hands as soon as we get in the car! Lesson learned.

Glad to hear the itching has lessened - sometimes one never finds out what caused the thing to begin with. Glad the Allegra worked for you.
I would be proud of Andrew too. Perhaps you might do a video of him performing and feature it one day. Congrats to him and for such a great cause too. He has a heart like yours.
Happy Day :)
