Week 86

As politically incorrect as it sounds, this week has been like one long version of the Chinese water torture treatment, as my mother would say. And, having grown up with my grandmother, she should know.

What have I learned? That being "happy," "healthy" and just plain "safe" are as good as or better than "rich," "famous," "glamourous" or "powerful."

And I have learned the importance of good dental health.
