Captn Deb:

You are an amazing gal. Here you are telling us about your pain, but making us laugh at the same time. I esp. love your response when asked about allergies.

Did I mention what a hottie my headache doc is? He fits right in there with Doc McDreamy.

Lots of hugs.

Warning:  I have an embroidery machine and I know how to use it ;)  I kept wondering what I'd ever use this guy for.  I hope it brightens your day and I would love for it to brighten your mailbox.

anissa,

just spoke on the phone with the ailing Captn... gave her a heads up to come take a peek at what you have done (which is fabulous!).... she'll log on sooner than later.  She's hanging tough.
