Down For The Count

Ah, yes.  The gift that keeps on giving.  We've both picked up a nasty cold from somewhere and we're passing it back and forth. 

Good thing we have no plans or agenda to follow.  Pardon me while I hack up a lung.  Now where is that chicken soup?

  1. Feel better soon and buy gallons of Vicks NyQuil and DayQuil, it was the only thing that helped me!

  8. Don't for get the zinc too. Wash your hands with hot soapy water every time you turn around. If you wash dishes by hand, uses a little purex, if you use a dishwasher, be sure and use the drying cycle.

  12. Terry had it too but I don't think you can pass it over the internet. Lots of rest and more of that chicken soup should do it. Get better!!

  14. Oh I'm so sorry to hear you are both sick. Are these back to school germs passed on to you? You have quite a few health care professionals offering advice so I'll only ask if you've heard about the onion in the jar which turns black since it absorbs all the germs.
