      From ohiorican October 14

      I told you my brain cells are dead, my brain interpreted your name as doug, LMAO You live in the part of CA I would only visit for maybe a day, I lived in San Diego went to BIg Bear once, beautiful yes, cold yes, too cold for my fibro old bones. Take it easy and hope you have more good days, suzanna

    • Sorry

      From ohiorican October 14

      Thanks doug for the flowers, they made me smile. I did not realize its been two weeks since I last posted. I have been having a fibro flare since the weather started getting so cold. It is too cold for me, I want to be in California. I read your documentary topic, I am going to have to re-read it because it went right over my head. I think fibro killed my brain cells its called fibro fog. It sounds interesting, and whats up with the whity shit, I am ohiorican, and I live where there is no diversity, racism is alive and well here. Do you know what my name means? Big soft hug, and what about that vacation. suzanna
