Feeling better this morning, headache came back earlier, but seems to be gone now. Still coughing, but the chest doesn't hurt anymore. Used the Winco gift card to buy some groceries today and added a gallon of orange juice to the list. Used to buy one every time I bought a gallon of milk but stopped doing that about a month ago due to the higher cost of OJ. Guess it is time to put some vitamin C in my body. LOL.

BTW, before anyone suggests I caught the cold because I did not have any vitamin C in my system, I used to drink 2 gallons of OJ a week (along with 2 gallons of milk) and I STILL ended up catching a cold. So even if I had been drinking OJ it is still possible to catch a cold.

As for asthma, I have had that since I was a kid. And the worst episode occurred while in the service. I have not had any problems since then, and I would say I don't have it anymore, but am told that it never goes away, so I guess I could get another attack, but have been blessed not to.

Don't much care for Scotch.... Perhaps Bourbon will work?

No snow here, as is to be expected as we are in a valley, but it is raining as I type this.

Got some good news yesterday, HUD will be out to inspect the apt tomorrow at 10:15am. So, God willing, I will be able to move in as soon as the down payment is procured. Going to have to call Perry to see if any progress has been made in that department. Plan on moving in on Monday as I hate paying U-Haul's weekend rates.
