Oh that's hardly anything.

You'd be more likely to fall into your own fanny.

But all the same don't die.

Laughing out loud
I can suck myself inside out. It is great for hiding out at parties. I look like a cactus plant, but pink.

Following a century of being a family of apparent binge drinkers, one of my ancestors opened the 'Orbell Temperance Hotel and Coffee Rooms' in Sudbury. It's now a pub. Rolling eyes

Here are a couple of news reports of champion family drinkers...

February 2nd 1864 - Charles Moss Orbell, a farmer of Brook Hall, Foxearth, was charged with being drunk and riotous in Cross Street, Sudbury, in the early hours of the 15th. On several previous occasions he has been charged with being drunk and disorderly. Superintendent Sachs and Sgt Chambers said they saw defendant knocking on the door of a house beside the Bull Inn in Church Street in the early hours of the morning, they told him it was a private house but he carried on. He was very drunk and on passing through Ballingdon he went to a house where many young people were at a party, the young ladies were very much frightened and sent for the police. The magistrates said they would have committed him to prison but as his mother was very ill he would be fined 50s.

August 25th 1874 - At an inquest on Oliver Orbell aged 24 it was found he died from intemperate living, he was lodging at the George Inn, Sudbury, and lived on a private income.

Is wide awake an bored.

My son is having an operation on his kidney today. We won't know exactly what the problem is until they have opened him up. We only know that he has one kidney that is too large and an odd shape and one that is very small and has some kind of blockage in it.

Eeeeeek. Might know some more by late this evening or some time tomorrow.
At least methods, surgery and treatment are much better now than they were 28 years ago when my husband had to have a kidney removed. His didn't work at all and he is still here and living a normal life so don't despair Andie, wait until you know more before you start worrying. Good luck with all those tests. Hug

Thanks Loops! Hug

Lol! No I have my hand on my eye.

Eep, how does it get passed between people? They don't tend to rub eyes.

Oh, when people touch their eyes then touch stuff I suppose...?
