Woah, this monoku made me feel so many emotions, reflecting the repetition of a gloomy cycle maybe.. Like a whirlwind of vulnerability.. No one should be on the cold gurney, that clasps our liveliness.. A very heartfelt one, dear Kim! Congratulations to you on the beautiful win!

On a gurney is not a place I want to be, Kim. It is necessary sometimes for preventive medicine and diagnostics. Hope you're okay. Take care of yourself my friend. Bill

Preventative, not pleasant, but pleasantly uneventful! Thank you, Bill!

it's funny that you used same old same old, but I could only say it one time or I would be over 17 syllables. when people use that term they often say it as sameo sameo. It's a very popular phrase!

Just a good old colonoscopy…reading about someone’s mishap during the procedure made me anxious plus all that is going on in the world. Prayed for peace. Was glad to get it over with.

I wonder if some people feel like it's comforting like you said. I've been sick in a hospital where I enjoyed being doted on when I had appendicitis. Nice, Kim...:)
