You are an inspiration for movement.

Kind of like mint jelly with lamb. Like Ellen, I think of horehound more like a cough drop than a candy.<br /><br />I like your reminiscences of your grandfather. I too wonder what it would be like to talk to my grandparents as an adult.<br /><br />I've never heard that expression about sweating and perspiring and "glowing"!

I don't sit still easily and I'd rather be doing things that use my body. I think we are engineered for that and we suffer healthwise as a species by not being so. If I sit still too long (for me) I'll start jiggling or foot tapping. it frustrates the dog who just wants to sleep in my lap and I keep standing up and moving around. and sweat. pre-menopause I barely perspired now it rolls off me in the summer. I have to wear a bandana tied around my head and keep one in my pocket for the rest of my face.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-33844888619979250532018-04-18T20:17:13.363-04:002018-04-18T20:17:13.363-04:00I’m so curious to know the book you don’t like rea...I’m so curious to know the book you don’t like reading.
