  • I be 'illin

    Go fing figure....I make it all winter without getting sick once, and what happens to me when the end of April rolls around? I get a cold.

    Was just incessant sneezing, runny nose and a sore throat at work today. Now the body aches are setting in.

    If anybody needs me, I'll be sucking on cough drops like they're Jolly Ranchers, and popping Dayquil to fall asleep.

    Didn't you say you had a few days off from work in a row as well? If so, double bugger.

      Oh no. Today was the first of at least six in a row.

          Awww ffers homemade soup and quilts::

          I always thought it was funny that I get strep/the flu in June. I think it's because my body knows I have no time to be sick any other time.

          I hope you feel better soon, Irv!

            Stay home in bed, suck up the chicken soap and OJ, tylenol for aches and pains/fever and with any luck you'll be over the worst in a couple of days and still be able to enjoy some of your time off.

            So sorry to hear you're not feeling well!

                I had one in early April. Was weird. It made me jittery and jumpy. Never had that happen with a cold or a raised temp before.

                Hope you feel better soon! Have some chicken-mushroom soup!

                      I think mom has the same cold (or maybe it's a cold combined with allergies); her job won't let her take time off though (and she's working around food). She never gets colds either.

                        And now the chills. Yippee.

                        If anybody needs me, I'll be trembling uncontrollably.

                        I better not have to call in sick and use a day of vacation.

                          Awww I had it a month ago. You'll feel better after 2 days, but take a week to recover. Have some of Panacaea's "chicken soap". LOL did no one else see that?

                            Is OK, I've ironed out the creases we left.

                              At least you could sneeze over the SC's.
