Well…this is just so damn weird…after just two days of not having cocktails, my vision is heading back to normal and I have started to taste things again…just had lunch and I could taste the ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, and even the corn…not how it used to be but I’ll really take anything to make it better…so it looks like my days of cocktails are over if I ever want to be normal again…and really, I’m okay with that…just need to make no cocktails the new normal and I think I can…and being able to taste again will be great when we head for Italy in September…the dentist recommended that I get a water pik to work my gums and make them stronger so I ordered one yesterday…a rechargeable portable one that has lots of attachments and three speeds and that is supposed to be here today…and that I can pack with me for the trip…okay, time to read some more…
