Someone took the
Luffa's. They look like a cucumber so maybe they thought they'd help and pick them for me. I can't imagine anyone stealing them. So... I can't see if they turned into a sponge or not. I had two hidden under the pumpkin leaves but they were too small before the leaves became frost bitten. None left. I'm
disappointed. Next year I'll grow them on the balcony.
I finished a pair of shoes this weekend. I'll post before and after next time.
I was very sick on Monday. Working a trade show in Chicago and caught Gastroenteritis. Something I ate or drank invaded my system and on Monday at 4:00pm everything inside of me
erupted. My co workers called 911 and I was transported by ambulance to Northwestern
Hospital. Man was that a horrible experience that I never want to happen again. The Doctor in the ER said I had a violent
episode and that it could happen to anyone. It was gone after they pumped me full of liquids. I don't want to go into details. Just look up the word for symptoms.
I stayed home from work for 3 days and felt almost normal on Friday. Just couldn't shake the memory. It's over. When ever I travel in the future, I will drink only bottled water and take a bunch of cliff bars. If any of the meals look iffy, eat a cliff bar instead.
