Time to escape to the Pines!!! I hear the conga line is just getting fired up.
 
Wednesday hello, on a gray, foggy, wet, chilly, dreary day ... but that's just outdoors. Monday (Columbus Day) wasn't scheduled as a holiday at my office, but they're going to close anyway ... Yay!

I have to work on Monday, but these Massachusetts laws require me to get paid time and a half for working it. So it will be worth it. cheesy
 
This is so not my day!!!! I took 2 Tylenol two hours ago and my temperature right now is 99.6. I don't know how I am going to go to school tomorrow. I missed class yesterday and today, I really can't afford to miss any more than that in one week. I have a quiz on Friday too. Ugh!!!

Enough complaining from me - time to catch up!


oh jennifer, bless your heart. is there any way you could get to a doc? me, my daughter, & hubby all had this stuff last month & it sounds just like what you have. we all had to have antibiotics. i'm not trying to be pessimistic but maybe it's not only a cold doll! take care!


Good evening, MMC!

I have to start work soon, but wanted to wish all of you a Happy Pinesday first.

MERRY dreams!

If this doesn't get better over the weekend, I think I will have my mom take me to the doctor on Monday. I have only had it since Sunday night so that means it is only three days to now. Sometimes my colds last me around ten days or so. I think I will know by then if it is getting worse or improving. Hopefully I won't need antibiotics! I am glad all three of you are better from last month. I hate how illnesses spread through families!! Thanks for your kind comments and you only expressed concern, not pessimism :]

On a side note - does anyone know if it is normal to get a swollen lymph node with colds?
 
You got it, my friend. And thanks.
(And 9:00 will be just fine!)

You're welcome, Crown. It will be an honour to fill-in for the first time since 2010!
 
Hey Brent I just adore FL, hope you have great weather!!! And Good Luck on you up coming tournament, we will root for you, and the 24th isn't that far off now!!!

Thank you, Lauriebear. I'm really looking forward to it. I am sure it will be a wonderful trip! Your support is much appreciated.
 
will you have to pay for the trip to Florida? i hope it gives you time to enjoy yourself!

Unfortunately, we have to pay for all our tournaments ourselves. The flight is $330 (round trip), plus accommodations and everything could set me back a little bit, but it will be a great time. I can do nothing but look forward to it!
 
I have never been to Sarasota but I have been to the FL gulf coast (Destin on the panhandle and Tampa) and it's beautiful! You will have a great time!!!

Glad to hear it. All these words of encouragement are making me more excited to countdown the days!
 
As much as I love the black and orange for now, I love the red and green much more. I would take that any day! The temperatures there sound pretty comfy for October! I hope that you enjoy yourself and be careful! Everyone needs a little fun here and there - Florida will be excellent! Don't work too hard, have a good day!

Nothing beats the red and green. It brings a great smile to my face. The temperatures are very comfortable. I really enjoy this weather, although Florida will be a nice warm change for one final time this year. I'll try not too work too hard! You too!! :)
 
Is there a big parade for the Canadian Thanksgiving?

Not at all, really. There may be small town parades, but nothing big.

Hey! I will be going to FL the same day as you, LOL! I hope we have nice weather with minimal rain!!! You never know with FL!

:% sweet dreams!

:-x


Good night, merry!! Hope you & your family are doing well. What's new?
Sweet dreams to you!!! xo
 
I'm probably catching up with this too late ... but here goes anyway. If your supermarket has a pharmacy, ask the pharmacist what OTC cough medicine he/she would recommend, and describe the kind of coughing you've been doing. From experience, I can also recommend hot tea (or even hot water) with honey and lemon juice, several times a day. It's very soothing and helps with the coughing for a while. And keep well hydrated. Drink a lot of water throughout the day.

If the cough is "left over" from a cold, sometimes the congestion is mostly gone, but the air passages are irritated from the coughing, and it's a vicious circle: the more you cough, the more irritation, and the more coughing. In that case, a suppressant might be best. (Just been there in recent weeks!)

I actually picked up a medicine that had a suppressant and an expectorant in it, so we'll see how this goes. I COMPLETELY forgot to pick up honey at the store, I'm so upset! I didn't realize this til I read this post, so maybe I'll stop at the store tomorrow and get some. Thanks for all the great advice!

Thank you so much!! I am so sorry to hear that you are still sick. I hope that is not what I am coming down with. Drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest. Hugs right back at you!


Thank you so much!! I use Delsym when I have a cough and it absolutely works like a charm. It doesn't taste bad at all either - I am a weirdo and quite enjoy the taste. Woo hoo for Project Runway and Chopped - love those shows! Chopped is so interesting. My dad likes Project Runway too, LOL. I hope you are feeling better tonight. I am sure of who I am voting for too, but I might turn on a few minutes of the debate. Honestly, I am not huge with politics. Do wear your dress!!

I have gone through so many liquids the last week and a half...juices, teas, water, you name it! Nothing is seeming to work. Hopefully something will soon! I have never heard of Delsym...what is it, exactly? I LOVE Chopped! I got into it because of my mom (she loves pretty much anything on the Food Network!) and even though I'm no cook, I love watching it! Maybe one day I'll be that creative. =) Who do you like on Project Runway this season? I am hoping for a Melissa/Christopher/Dmitry finale!
