Haven't checked in in a while. At times figure "what's the use?" Career dead, marriage may just as well be, see no future... > Live for my kids(teens now) ,can't wait til they don't need me anymore....
Hi Truivia! Hey, you're not interrupting At All ! It's about medication and you're addressing such:) Besides in casual conversation don't people veer off main topic to something related? Sure they...
