I've felt a cold coming on for a couple of days, and it finally hit full force yesterday. Scott wrote about a rhino virus that had invaded his head. I think that he must have sneezed in Texas and sent that rhino virus all the way here. So today I have a sore throat and cough with a stuffy head.
Anyway, I'm going to try the best recipe that I know: chicken soup. Then, I'm going to go back to bed. I have a lot of bloggers to catch up with. I hope to do that soon. Just know that I'm thinking about you and hope that all is going well in your lives. And that you don't have any rhinos in your head!
I'm grateful today that:
- I drove without any accidents, although I saw a lot of them along the way
- I can stay home and get some TLC
- Work will still be there when I return and there won't be earth-shattering consequences
- Chicken soup was invented as a natural cold elixir
- The bedroom has a nice fireplace in it and a warm comforter on the bed
- I'm content and happy in my life on this day.

ReplyDeleteHope you feel better quick. Glad you had a good trip. jeNN
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry Syd for your 'discomfort'. My mother always called WHATEVER bothered anyone else...discomfort. I once had a heart attack in her presence, and she said I was in 'discomfort'!
ReplyDeleteBut, WOW...if she had a hang-nail, it was to bed, and be waited upon, by us four servants (us four children).
Guess I need a mini 4th step with my mother as the topic???!!!
Now, a c o l d ...that is SICKNESS, for me. You feel terrible, but you KNOW you're going to live. Dang it!
Feel better, as we miss you.
ReplyDeleteSyd, if I did not already post a comment here, I sure hope your recovery from that cold, is lots quicker than "other" recoveries...
ReplyDelete...and I sure don't know what I meant by that statement. I'm sleepy again.
sick, content and happy, you are a miracle of nature! get well soon. and enjoy the chicken soup. it looks delicious enough to eat, even without a cold.
ReplyDeleteStay there..in the bed.
ReplyDeletePut some Vicks on the bottom of your feet, then put on some socks.
DO IT SYD.
This thing is 3 days coming, 3 days staying and 3 weeks of coughing to follow.
Sleep.
That soup looks good.
ReplyDeleteMy rhino is still with me, but seems to be waning. Take care and feel better soon.
I am glad you made it home safely!
ReplyDeleteI had the plague (better known as upper-resp. infection) a few weeks ago and had my husband's home made italian wedding soup (better known to me as miracle in a bowl) so I know what you mean when you talk about home made chicken soup.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!!!
A fireplace in the bedroom? Ooooohhhh, how nice!
