Bodie State Historic Park P. Box Bridgeport, California Gas pumps in Bodie, California by Carol Highsmith. My name is Valerie. The town was one of the most memorable landscapes I have ever laid my eyes upon.

Near the Standard Mill, there was a shack with a really old washer and these feminine items surrounding it. When I peeped through the window I banged my head on a nail. So at the time, I thought hmm… how nice would be to have a souvenir? I then put the nail in my pocket and went on with the tour. I remember feeling bad about taking it more than a few times but that was over 5 years ago and through all my moving around and college transfers I simply lost the nail.

So, I was just wondering what you think I should do… Valerie, May We went to Bodie it was wonderful to see and we had a great time spent 4 hours there ate lunch had fun.

When we arrived home my husband had a purple piece of glass a blue and a green and a few other glass pieces I was like why did you do that. I was mad but just let it go because I am not that superstitious. The next day Aug 6th my back started hurting me very bad I went to the doc and he said I had a disc slightly outta line prescribed me a valium so I would have a good sleep so that he could give me an adjustment the next day, I took the Valium that night never had taken Valium b4 and I was restless did not sleep all night and woke up with a pounding headache my eyes hurt so bad and my back was even worse, I asked my hubby to stay home from work and take me to the hospital where they gave me a shot Demerol for pain in my butt and told me I had a real bad sinus infection after the E.

I went to my doctor for my back adjustment and told him about the Valium he told me 1 in people have the opposite reaction to what Valium is supposed to do and that he will note in my chart no Valium He decided not to mess with my back because I was in so much pain I was wearing sunglasses inside because of my eyes hurt so bad. So the rest of the day Aug 6 and 7th,8th and 9th I was in bed sick and sore.

On Aug 10th we went to a Reno Aces game in Reno Nv with our kids we stayed half the game because it was very hot so we went home early to go swimming when we got we were getting our suits on and while doing this my 6-year-old son grabbed my oldest sons epi-pen while playing with it he accidentally shot it thru his finger right thru one end to the other so we headed to the hospital again, my son was ok but if the epi-pen had not gone all the way thru he would have lost his finger.
