2:00 AM to 4:00 am. As I sit here trying to keep my legs higher than m y heart, , that time frame around here can make my head come up with some pretty different ideas which last night/ morning to be exact ----got going on the expression that a kid has “ants in their pants.” .. which to take one of the more generous interpretations might mean they were basically ADHD in modern terminology but then having listened to Ted Robertson on the Ted lecture ---- how children just have to move and how they should be offering dance and motion to children along with reading writing and arithmetic ----I got going on the what happen the child basically has some problem with an itch---- literally an itch... I don't know of any doctor specializing in itch there are doctors who specialize in skin and things like that but as far as the itch is concerned--- of which I do know a little ---most skin doctors try to apply your problem to the knowledge they already have ----- having been through a bunch of departments at mass general and Leahy-- the two big hospital giants in Boston-- there is no “itch “ specialist
From the itch--- my head wandered to genealogy---I do believe strongly in traits being passed between generations---my large scientific study of that is that I have a birthmark behind my knee.. my sister has a similar birthmark.. and so does Janine.. I didn't bother trying to research other relatives although this daily doggy goes to many so I may get response to it if anybody else has that same birthmark--- love to hear ------- because at the tender age of about 10 years old I was fascinated by my grandmother for two reasons at least---one she put on a super chicken dinner with unbelievable gravy that I remember to this day... and two she always wore a proper farm woman’s dress / with apron....with stockings which invariably had a small piece of toilet paper blotting up a very small drop of blood.. on her lower legs. I wondered if they itched... my legs sticking up in the air, itch.

FYI----Likewise there is no physician or department in the Boston area I could find which deals with the effects of being electrocuted... however I'm happy to report there is a small developing group in Chicago which would be thrilled to study electrocution cases. and they might even offer to put you up for a week while they poke and probe.—I opted not to...
The package delivery system around here has taken a hit literally--- because our purple doghouse which is where deliveries are left---- had to be knocked over and moved out of the way about two weeks ago because of too many cars parked in that area when Janine had to turn that big RV trailer to get it backed into place... so that once leveled and hooked up we can once again have an extra accommodation for visiting CPS or by now GW’s. that purple doghouse did have a number 37 on it.. but the poor Amazon drivers can only stand there and look at the guesthouse #67 and the main house # 42 .. it is bewildering for those who do not think of numbers as “shapes to be artistically displayed.”
How odd...
