Blather, rinse, repeat

HA! Like an old oak table!!! I just watched the whole four series again a couple of months ago and that's still one of my favorite lines. Funny about getting the ideas in the tub. Well not funny, but I get it. Only trouble is, all my genius happens at about 30,000 feet, and by the time I've gotten busses/cabs/ferries/car rides/etc. home and do the whole greeting of the pets and making sure they're all okay, even if I wrote notes I am somehow lacking the alchemy of the moment. What's that all about? You'll get it right though, I have faith. I hope you post pics of your fish when you get them. Remember the ones I had in Southold? I loved those fish. Hope Sano is feeling better soon. I had a bad reaction to something on new fabric once myself. They put all kinds of weird stuff on, and you don't always think of washing it when it's not something that goes directly against the skin. I've had a few ointments for such things because in the last decade I developed hyper reactive skin after a chemical burn I had, and started getting hives at the drop of a hat. No idea if it will help Sano, but the best two things I found for myself were calendula or an ointment that Bachs makes which is just a spreadable Rescue Remedy. Both really soothed the skin and the anxiety that goes with itchy, painful hives & rashes. TMI? Sorry... I promise not to ramble on about my digestive issues next! :-)
