I hate to think how hot it is in Oklahoma. Maybe we could get together in Canada. ;) <br /><br />@Shana. I've been told that a lot of this is due to allergies, which is probably true since I've been sick at almost exactly the same times for the past three years or so. I was never allergic to anything but poison ivy before (oh, yes, I have that too) but they say you acquire allergies as you age. Yet another thing to love about getting older!Cheryl Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464377381132807409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-55531975766095433122012-06-29T13:46:06.330-04:002012-06-29T13:46:06.330-04:00Wow!

How do you get croup in summer?

We were certainly packed in like sardines on the way to and from Ireland. It's scary to think how many people pass through Heathrow Airport carrying germs from all over the world.<br /><br />We itinerant authors should form a pack. We could sit in Starbucks discussing aliens, werewolves, vampires, cowboys, dukes, and such. No one would come near us!Cheryl Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464377381132807409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-70318571377876652312012-06-29T11:40:23.988-04:002012-06-29T11:40:23.988-04:00You're right, Donna.

I'm with Terry--stop going home, trying to do two weeks of laundry in a day, catch up on the bills, look after the garden, say hi to Hubs and the cats, write 10,000 words a week, and plan more travel. <br /><br />Just become an itinerant author, roving from conference to conference, making friends with all the cover models and meeting all the other authors who've learned to hang at Starbucks.Grace Burrowesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-2973589152931444572012-06-29T06:31:30.171-04:002012-06-29T06:31:30.171-04:00Sounds like you had lots of fun things to go to, C...Sounds like you had lots of fun things to go to, Cheryl!
