Oh So Sleepy

I know I am in trouble when I sit down to write a post and the only thing I can think about is how tired I am.  I guess there is another thing - I feel a sore throat coming on and I have been trying to thwart its progression with mouth wash.  I know it seems odd but really, that is an antiseptic and I have found that gargling it is quite helpful as the battle looms.  I absolutely recommend it over say Hydrogen Peroxide, which I have done on a couple of occasions.  That is a frothy, nasty method of cleaning around the mouth and throat.  I do not recommend it.  The Vick's on the feet is another great way to fight colds.  That tip from my friend Heidi has been very hopeful over the last year. 

Well, really, I am spent.  I am fighting to stay awake here and it isn't going so well.. I can continue to fight and draw out this comfort.  Well,I am done.  Sorry to cut out early but there I am half asleep and starting to get a bit coherent .  I just woke up.  Now it is time for bed.

  1. whoa, forgot about the Vicks on the feet since last years episodes with colds. Might also mention Silver for your throat John... just in case you have forgotten how wonderful it is!
