Here we are, 30 December, only a day and two hours from 2008.
And I am sick.
Since the age of 12 (I think), I have enjoyed an annual lung infection.
Enjoyed is too strong a word - endured perhaps.
Oh the fits of cough in the middle of the night…oh the restless sleep.
And the phlegm. Greenish-yellow phlegm. Thick, disgusting, vile, putrid, and malevolent.
Anyway, Happy almost New Year!!!

thank you my dearest doug.
david is keeping me stocked up with softgels that contain acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, and phenylephrine HCL.

Yes, get better and rest. That includes typing so many big words
Happy New Year

Have you heard of Emergen-C? It’s a powder you add to water for a super boost of Vitamin C and other stuff. I’ve been taking a dose every morning, and when my best friend Susan started taking it, her strepth throat cleared up in a day (you can take up to four doses a day).
It might not help, but then again, it might.

I have heard of that, and the Airborne stuff too - there are some folks who work for me who take it year-round just to ward off any nasties that might come their way.
I’m a firm believer in the power of Vitamin-C, after having read a Reader’s Digest article, when I was younger, about a guy in Russia (I think) who was suffering from some unknown disease and doctors could do nothing for him. Strange nodules formed all over his body - they thought it might have been from long-term exposure to diesel train fumes - so this man, wise in the ways of science, flooded his body with Vitamin-C for days and days, and cured himself.

If you want, I can send a box your way. I’m a firm believer now. The stress of traveling back and forth every week (among other things) has caused me to have serious eczema three times in the last few months, even though I haven’t had it for years. Yet since I’ve been taking Emergen-C every day, I haven’t gotten any cold or flu-like symptoms at all (knock on wood) and I love the raspberry flavor (didn’t much care for the lemon-lime or the cranberry, though).
