On those days that I was suffering from my tooth abscess (and my husband was home) I took pain medicine, crawled in bed and read as much as I could (and watched/listened to classic movies on other days when the pain was worse). If it wouldn't have been for the pain it would have been like a lovely vacation.Alycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919057159829023714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-13565498261775477922010-05-22T04:26:38.020-07:002010-05-22T04:26:38.020-07:00I can't remember the last time I did that - ho...I can't remember the last time I did that - how sad!
