ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great year! I hope that you have a fabulous 2011!
ReplyDeleteIn terms of your stomach pains - ask them to make sure it's not your gall bladder. I had mega pains near my stomach for about two years and they had to do an emergency surgery before my gall bladder exploded... The same thing happened to both my mother and sister... Just saying.
ReplyDeletethanks leelee. i actually have already had them look at my gall bladder and all is fine there....good news for my gall bladder, but not so much for my stomach. haha
