Moaning and a'groaning

I haven't had an ear ache since I was a kid,,, until now,,, and it's wrecking havoc on my beauty sleep. I have bags under my eyes big enough to pack all my clothes in and I'm a tad bit cranky (or maybe that stronger word would better describe it).

James's Uncle died early Sunday morning so I've been visiting with his aunt today and plan to go back tomorrow. She's 61 years old and she told me today that she's never spent a night alone in her whole life. I feel so bad for her.

I think I'm gonna hit the hay now. Hope everyone had a great Monday.

My condolences to you and your family.

Ear infections are awful. I hope you're starting to feel better.

I've only had an earache once, and it was a double. It was not nice.

The last time my ears bothered me, I had an inner ear virus. Man, was I dizzy! I hope that's not what's happening to you. I'm guessing not, since you were able to sit up and post!

I'm sorry to hear about James' uncle. I can sympathise with the earache! Hope it's better now.

Oh man an ear ache. :( I'm sorry for your family's loss Brenda. Dealing with a death just sucks all the way around.

I haven't had an earache since I was a little kid, but I still remember how much it sucked. Sorry, hon.

I hope you feel better soon!

As for labeling in school, they might do it (which I doubt the school says formally, its more like the kids know), but that doesn't mean you have to be a self-fufilling prophecy.

All my life I've been made to feel stupid, my joy comes in proving these people WRONG!

I hope you're feeling better real soon, Brenda. Hugs to all who are mourning, too.

Prayers for both of you ladies. I hope your ear is better by now and I know you are providing comfort for the one grieving.

Get some antibiotics for that ear. Ear aches hurt like hell.

Sorry to hear James Uncle passed away...and so young. It was nice of you to spend sometime with his wife. It will be very lonely for her.

I'm sorry to hear the sad news, Brenda. My heart goes out to his wife.

Have you managed to find some relief from the ear ache?
