So far I only have two sets of exercises. I am told it has something to do with the position the surgeon places the entry point for surgery. Marianna, this is an old project.

First round I learned to draw courtesy of "Drawing From the Right Side of the Brain." Conrad even posted some of my attempts. Other surgeries resulted in knitted dishcloths - I was my own little factory. Guess what everyone received for Christmas? Have they got you walking on a treadmill? I hope so - makes a huge difference with the muscle memory. :) Nothing like a creative project to speed the healing.

I got a headache trying to read it! I guess he doesn't want the world to know his secret ingredient. Grannymar, go to Conrad’s post and give him some advice on posting recipes.

It will pass and soon I will be back to normal. Nick - Two surprises in store for next week. Steph - I thought you were quiet today. Baino _ Some people think I am plain daft! :D Magpie - I knew you would keep me right about the shell. I was way too tired last night to check it out.

As a symbol of fertility, it can be see in The Birth of Venus of Botticelli and pre-dates the Christian use.
