I have a family thing tomorrow and while my spastic colon faded many years ago, it may get a kick start tomorrow.

I finally had to leave when the shooting stomach pains got too sharp to ignore. And, I'll be back there, tomorrow. I am always very happy when I can sit back, on Christmas night, and congratulate myself for both suriving the visit and NOT getting disowned.
