Subject: either way is fine, The Keys or the keys...sm

we Floridians call them The Keys...it's not incorrect, but each key has a name, Key Largo, Key West, Duck Key, etc. I'd give them The Keys but that's just me *lol*


it's 80 degrees here today in S. Florida and gorgeous!!!  Lots of breeze too.

I figure even if they made it up, if I can figure out what it means, and this one's obvious, then everyone else can too. Every single medical word is not in stedman's electronic dictionary. but this one's fine.

You're doing GREAT!!!  I love google but google is WRONG with spelling a lot of times.  I once looked up Spironolactone and google misspelled it....so while google is GREAT for looking up anything, just be careful and double check at a medical site once google comes up with something!!!


Have a great rest-of-the-week!!!
