I also took my husband's medicine upstairs to him, since he forgot it before.

He's taking typhoid vaccine, which has to be taken every other day for a week.

Why does your husband need typhoid vaccine?   :nerd!:

He travels a lot to other countries and some of them require that your typhoid vaccine is up-to-date.  He's had pretty much every vaccine the travel doctor has including Japanese Encephalitis and Yellow Fever.

Wow! What kind of work does he do?   :orly:

He's a mathematician who develops and manages the development of Computer Aided Design software. 

He went to Israel for a conference just before Christmas and while he was there, he also visited Egypt and Jordan.

That's excellent! I've never been farther from home than upstate New York! Does your husband speak other languages?   :orly:

Very cool. I kind of wish my father had taught us German.   :chin:

It's never too late to learn.  My husband started studying Japanese a few years ago when a Japanese company bought the company he works for.  He bought some learning software and CDs first, then when he had learned what he could from them, he hired a Japanese tutor.  She helped him understand some of the Japanese etiquette as well, so she was very helpful.

Oh, I forgot that my husband grew up speaking Swahili because he lived in Tanzania when he was little, but he has forgotten most of it by now.

Yeah, my father grew up speaking German as well as English because his parents were Austrian immigrants, but he is an only child with little
extended family, and he forgot most of his German before we were born. It's good that there are ways to learn at any age though.  :viking:

Perhaps he'll run into Odeon some day?  Except your husband will be looking for John Lennon.

I don't think they have been in the same place at the same time yet, but I guess it's possible they could run into one another.

I took my meds and some new ones as well.


I am now taking five medications to try and control my massive heart.

I might be one of those people who live hard and die young  (OK, fifty something is NOT young, but I still feel like an indestructible kid, except for my knee and my hip  :lol: ).  I have lived hard and my doc is upping my "old fart" meds after every visit.

My doc is determined to kill me with love.

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Took my meds but technically it was yesterday.

Will take the meds that technically should have been taken yesterday, before bed, not long from now today, still just before bed.

Am drinking white wine though. Purely for winding down reasons, very medicinal.  :orly:
