Considering my new social status as a Nap Master, I have been enhancing my skills today.
Actually, that’s bullshit. My dodgy belly returned overnight and I have been napping to avoid the cramps.
Now, I am worried. The first round I put down to food, something that ate me didn’t agree with me. But, as my food yesterday was completely different, I am reviewing the situation. I may well have picked up some kind of intestinal/stomach infection/bacteria that is resident and set to do me harm.
I have a new class this evening, a new group of six students, and while the last thing I feel like doing is giving a three hour class, I must bite the bullet.
I was disturbed today. Well, I am disturbed most days, but today a little more twisted than usual.
It is a prime example of why the world hates Americans, at least the government and security forces. The CIA was using a polio vaccination programme as an undercover spying network in Pakistan. This is despicable. There is no wonder that the Taliban got wind of it and were assassinating innocent health workers. These agencies will stoop at nothing to gain their aims; in this case Bin Ladin. I don’t care who the target was, involving a health programme and innocent people is really scraping the bottom of the moral barrel.
As I am not feeling a 100, I am going to take my leave for the day, instead of wracking my brains for a new topic.
Please forgive me…
Later.
I can empathise, my IBS has been giving me hell for a couple of days, it isn’t that is it? I also suffer from IVS, Irritable Vowel Syndrome, but only when trying to write blog posts! Hope you’re feeling better soon 🙂

>Shana, IBS IVS… I just suffer from I = irritable. Do these things start suddenly? I have often got my vowels twisted when writing. 🙂

IBS is weird, I haven’t had any problems for ages, now it’s flared up and this time I can’t work out the trigger, the last time it was potatoes of all things, but it’s stress related too. Twisted vowels are more than enough to give you cramp!!

Still don’t know what IBS is, if I wasn’t so lazy, I’d google it. The only common denominator between the two is red meat…. OMG, I hope not! Shana, you’re scaring me. 🙂

>Yvonne, yesterday I was about 50% today perked up to 90%, so on the mend.
Screw tops… as the judge said “they should be returned from whence they came!” referring to Hell. Or was he talking about hanged criminals… If I had realised the bottle had a screw cap, I would have cropped the image rather than sully my blog. I seem to remember that you were a fan of them, we will agree to differ. 🙂

I also suffer from IBS, however mine is mostly stress and not what I eat, so bring on the meat! 🍔 Usually a nice glass of wine helps calm the nerves before my meal. 🍷

>Andrew, I promise I won’t kick the bucket over this irritation. It was once said by a friend that I have cast iron guts. On the mend.
