    We had snow at work, but rain here at home . Hoping that the spasms are on their way out and that you will be feeling more comfortable. Good to hear you have good friends to help you out , as I am sure you do when you can.

    Morning Beanie, hope you got some sleep and you're standing a little taller today. :) What's the weather like where you are? We've had snow, not much but it looks pretty..... only because I don't have to drive in it. :D Have a good day. xx
