3. Southpaw, get some Vitamin C, quick!
No good joke here, just health advice, rapido!

Vitamin C, Zinc, Echinacea( Ha-spell check said 'Euthanasia' )
Airborne tablets- they fizz in water-

get 'em and take em ASAP.

Never mind that you will burp and other things
just do it- you will be so happy you did.

I am doing just that as we speak- I'm on my second 1000 mg of
Vitamin C. I subbed for a teacher who has a very bad cold.

You may nip this one in the bud.

Good luck!!

:hug:

ps- you're stressed, Dude- try to relax and forget about the 'maybe' stuff.

14. Whiskey, lemon, and honey...a hot toddy
Always works for me...and I never get sick. Very disappointing, because I would like to drink a nice hot toddy. My mom always treated us with that and it never failed.

Hey bud. hope you feel better.

I think I got sick because I didn't go workout 2 days in a row!

Or hell, probably just stress?

24. Hey, I am a big believer in stress and its effects
Edited on Fri Dec-22-06 10:04 PM by cwydro
I think that is what does in most of us Merkins. We all need to chill and enjoy life and not take ourselves so seriously. That said, I know what you are going through, so that advice may not be on target.

I hope you can take joy in your family through this season...and then you can deal with the new year as it comes. Have faith brother. You gots plenty of friends here, right?

I got some things going on, but I will go out for my run tomorrow...and I know I'll feel better afterwards.

26. Stress Is A Killer
and I could tell you all about how it kills

and I'm damned terrible at eliminating it in my life

hell I have given presentations to groups of different kinds on "stress management"

so much irony in life..

I know you are as addicted to the Africacam as I am...keep me posted on that...for some reason I keep losing the link.

What grapefruit flavor are you speaking of? I love grapefruit.

30. pink grapefruit airborne
It's that fizzy tablet that stops a cold in its tracks. There are other flavors, but I like the pink grapefruit.
