I managed to stave one off. How, you might ask, with Airborne and Zicam. Believe it or not, if you take this stuff at the first signs of a cold it will go away. At least it has for me on at least three occasions since my daughters talked me in to using it. Soar throat on Friday. Gone by Saturday. Hope you feel better.
Mr. C, I usually have luck using something with th unfortunate spelling "Kold Kare" - it's got Chinese & Ayurvdic herbs and other good shit. I just waited too late to start it this time, I guess.
Mark, I appreciate that! I had to put socks on this weekend, too, for the first time since May, I think.
Well intellisniffles, you keep slipping and sliding by me on my rollin' blog thingie, so it could be that you are sniffleless by now.
Nevertheless, I agree with Ol'B, except, you don't necessarily need the book...or the brown paper bag...although I have known an occasional sniffler who needed two bottles...and two brown bags. But that is another remedy...and different malady.

ReplyDeleteI will say "Bless you" twice. After that I figure it's not working. I have a cold too, but I can cure mine by putting both socks on.
ReplyDeleteTake a glass of wine and a good book to bed...make that a bottle of wine.

jj, I haven't touched your rolling blog thingie -- wan't me!
DeletePretty much sniffle-less now, but still Flemish. I may still take some preventative vino just to get me through flu season, tho.
