//begin rant//

Ugh. I'm sick and I hate being sick (stuffy nose, dizzy, dazed etc; etc; etc. And I think its my little brothers fault, he is always bringing home colds for one reason or another. I never get colds...and I am blaming him.

The only good thing about being sick is that you feel so darned good when it's all over. I hope that will be a comfort to you.

I hate being sick.

I used to catch a cold about once or twice a year. A case of bronchitis would normally accompany the cold about once per year, too (I really should quit smoking). But since I have been taking multivitamis on a consistent & regular basis, I find that I have not been sick since. I'm a firm believer in the benefits of multivitamins.

I hate being sick too. I would imagine the most of us have the same feeling. Imagine if you liked being ill, that would be a twist to life.

I hate being sick.

I used to get colds a lot, in spite of taking multivitimins. When I got married, my wife said I don't need to take vitimin supplements as she dosen't and she rarely gets sick. So I quit. And guess what? After eating her healthful, low sugar, low fat cooking, I don't get sick very often either. Other things that help include getting a lot of fluid (coffee and beer excluded from counting for that) and decent sleep. Well I drink coffee and get about avg 6 hrs sleep per night. Not so good. I do, I guess, cheat, though on the vitimin thing as every evening I drink about 28 oz of orange juice!

I hate being sick.

Day 4 of being sick here, I am calling sick into work tonight, went the last two nights (after doing a full day of school) and I just dont want to do it again tonight. The ride home is brutal with my head bobbing up and down prying my watering eyes open so I can see the road...and then having oncoming traffic once in a while (I work in the styx no lights on part of the way home) the glare from the headlights nearly kills me.

So anyway, I'll either be cleaning up around here a lil' (always makes me feel better when stuff isn't old and stuffy in my room, let in some outside air etc on here or sleepin.

ps. I live at home, and my mother is shoving vitamins and medicine down my throat. I refuse to take anything normally, but I've been a little delarious so I am just listening because I cant handle argueing atm.

I have a nasty tasting and smelling beverage for you, but it kept my father from even catching a cold for three plus years. A tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, hot water, and all the honey you can handle, usually a coupla tablespoons does it. For some reason, that weird cocktail fend off the bad germs and will pick you right up. Only thing is you gotta do it every day religiously. I'm gonna start that, too, with winter coming on and my new weight loss plan courtesy of Theo...
