LOL!! Hope the engine pull goes well Bill. Are you putting a new front cover on(they are spendy), or just fixing the leak? I assume just fixing the leak, but thought I'd ask.

I plan on just resealing the front cover Darin. I will have to inspect it real well when I get it off and make sure it's not cracked or anything.

I've got a little welding to do on the beam this morning. Gotta add a middle support. Once I get that done, I'll clean the shop up and start pulling the engine. I woke up yesterday morning with a terrible cold and felt like crap all day yesterday. Don't feel much better today. Sucks

Get some vitamin C pills. They are cheap and dont hurt you.

I hardly ever get sick, but when any symptoms show at all I make sure to just drink a lot of water and take one of those a day.

Hopefully you start feeling better! Git r Done!

If I feel a little off at all, I start popping multi-vitamins (if I can remember to take the darn things). I haven't been sick in a few years, knock on wood!

Hope you get to feeling better before the gang arrives!

Zinc really works too. I try to stay away from drugs as much as possible, but I'm not above using home remedies and dietary supplements to help my body fight off the junk. Vitamin C is good and Zinc puts a funny taste in your mouth, but it really works to shorten the duration of a cold. I use the lozenges and if you can get past the funny taste and the dry mouth, they really do work. There are nasal sprays and that kind of stuff too if you'd rather go that route.

Heck a saline nasal rinse works really good to bring you some relief too if you get nasal colds like I do, but some people can't get past the feeling of water going up their nose. It really does help though.

I usually keep Emergen-C at the house. I like that stuff...a lot of vitamin c and other vitamins in one dose. I need to get some more...I was sick right before Bill (I'm afraid I may be the culprit for Bill's contraction of this sickness). Like I told him though - sickness help build the immune system! What doesn't kill us makes us stronger! I'm just trying to keep him healthy in the long run. He'll thank me later. LOL!
