Jay, that's absolutely brilliant! <br /><br />My God, I wonder we could do if we weren't worried all the time.<br /><br />Didn't mean to frighten you about that other business. But I think you make an excellent observation about the modern diet. <br /><br />There are some many chemicals in our food and so little regard for the potential consequences. It's quite scary. <br />Rob Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04741955202727936194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214458.post-35597470888414555572013-02-09T08:41:09.863-08:002013-02-09T08:41:09.863-08:00Good grief - don't frighten me like that!!
...Good grief - don't frighten me like that!! <br /><br />I'm so glad to hear that it is 'only' a hiatus hernia (as we call it over here). Trust me, I SO know the feeling .. the pain, the fear, the numbness - pain in the back, even. The wondering if/when to call for help. <br /><br />I'm beginning to think our diet has an awful lot to do with this 'modern' disease. So many people are being diagnosed with acid reflux with or without the hernia, it <i>has</i> to be something we're doing wrong.<br /><br />"Life is a very short story indeed and allowing our emotions to get the better of us will only bring it to an abrupt and pointless end."<br /><br />And ain't THAT the truth? I have privately designated 2013 'the year of not worrying'. I am such a fretter that it's difficult sometimes, but actually, it seems to be working; if I start to panic over something, and I remind myself that 2013 is the Year of Not Worrying, somehow it calms me down a bit.Jay at The Depp Effecthttp://www.thedeppeffect.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214458.post-62741030725462136282013-02-09T08:08:21.377-08:002013-02-09T08:08:21.377-08:00Thanks so much for your concern, Ron.

It's very comforting to know there's somebody out there who's thinking about me.<br /><br />As far as Nemo, we're digging out now and the airports have already reopened.<br /><br />Like any other blizzard, I could have gladly skipped it, but it wouldn't be winter without at least one snowstorm.<br /><br />Take care, buddy!Rob Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04741955202727936194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214458.post-43023119914823777642013-02-09T07:55:46.433-08:002013-02-09T07:55:46.433-08:00Once again, Rob, awesomely written post!
You had ...Once again, Rob, awesomely written post!<br /><br />You had me scared there for the first part because I was REALLY worried what you were going to say. But when I read that you were okay, I relaxed - whew! Hey, I would have been concerned if I had experienced those symptoms as well because it did sound like a heart attack. And good for you for not Googling heart attack because I've done that with other things and it scared the crap out of me.<br /><br />I'm also glad to hear that you guys in NY and NJ didn't get hit as hard as expected with Nemo. I was very concerned about that. We only got rain and winds here in Philly, but nothing severe.<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend, buddy!<br /><br />Again, great post. I always love the way you concluded your stories.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.com
