Subject: QOTD for Thursday, October 13, 2022

I’m sorry, I wasn’t feeling well last night and forgot to post.

The following quote is from Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 3, “Rustic, Rural, and Very Romantic.” Copyright 2021 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“‘Sometimes it’s hard to know what to say, how to talk to each other, when you haven’t seen a person in a long time—especially when it’s a person who’s important to you. It takes a bit of time to feel comfortable again; easier if there’s a job at hand. Let me look at your throat, will you?’
‘You don’t feel comfortable talking to me yet?’ he asked lightly.
‘Oh, yes,’ I assured him. ‘Doctors never have trouble in talking to people. You start by telling them to take off their clothes, and that breaks the ice. By the time you’ve done poking them and peering into their orifices, the conversation is usually fairly animated, if not necessarily relaxed.’”

[> Would someone remind me who Claire is examining here that she hasn't seen in a while? She certainly is never hesitant when it comes to poking, prodding, or peering! -- DianaH, Thu, October 13 2022, 8:59:15

[> She and Roger have a very special loving, respectful relationship. Imagine Claire as your MIL?!? I don’t know who’d be worse - she or Jenny - neither one minces words or opinions. Lol -- Kathy in PA, Thu, October 13 2022, 12:06:11
