I'm glad everyone likes my Fractured Fairy Tale

Tru - you are the only person I know that needs to take a "get well" vacation after a short vacation. You could always go for the "unemployment vacation". I was on that after I retired and got $512 a week for something like 35 weeks. Company set up my "early retirement" as a layoff, so I could collect. Not too bad for sitting back and doing nothing. Didn't even have to go anywhere ... it was all done thru the Internet.

Bruised ribs can be a real PITA. I cracked a rib about 5 years ago, and it hurt so much that I could not get into bed. Slept in a Lazy-Boy chair for a couple/three weeks. One thing that did help was wearing and old vest from a suit that was very tight. Prevented a lot of pain when I tried to take a deep breath, or laughed or God forbid ... sneezed.

Ron - forecast for next 6 days is sunny with hi temps between 75 and 82°F. I'll take it. I actually watered my garden yesterday. After the proverbial deluge of rain during July and the first half of August, we have not had any appreciable rain for the last few weeks. But the tomatoes taste great, and the cukes are the best I've grown in years.
