1 I don't get migraines anymore because I take a preventative medication every day, 6 little pills
2 My high blood pressure is under control with medication, 1 little pill
3 If the neighbourhood runs out of water, I have enough stored in my body to keep us going for days
4 I have no pimples
5 My permed hair no longer smells burned
6 My allergic reaction to deodorant is healing - and yes, I live in Florida. Stand way back.
7 Tea tree oil is an effective natural deodorant and helps to heal irritated skin (is guess this is a factoid and not a bonafide "10" but whatever)
8 My left leg only goes numb when I sit cross-legged
9 My chiropractor can see me Thursday morning
10 My T is back from vacation this weekfeeling pretty yuck

Sorry you feel yuck. I think it's great to appreciate all the things we take for granted.

Clear Skies true about the tea oil. Melaleuca makes it and all natural products. have to join and spend money each month . I was a member and quit. The lotion clears up ecezama. Now paint your toe nails and get ready to walk tomorrow. If I can ride 7.5miles in l0l heat and bad air quality you can walk. There I got on a lovely lady who is very kind and having a hard time right now. Love Phillipa

Well, I had planned a bitterly ironic and negative 10 that I was going to call The Consolations of St Declan, but someone wiser than I (me? how can you tell? subject? object?) prevailed upon me to reconsider.
But listen....I cracked a joke in a class last night and everyone laughed.
It's a class in learning to teach English (in order that I may abandon the anglosphere) and we were asked to give an example of the Present Continuous, and the example I gave was...
'I am having a dog'.
It helps if you say it with an Indian accent.

This will be my new mantra. I just about fell over laughing when I read it.

Jeez Louise - Present Continuous!!
I guess I know how to speak it, but not WHAT I'm saying!
hugs, Kath
Cool that you're doing that class!!! Where would you like to go if you were to go somewhere non-English speaking?
