Summer Colds

Is there anything as vicious as a summer cold? I suppose, when I have a better perspective, I could come up with a few .......war....famine....pestilence.....drought.......

But right now.....the summer cold tops my list.

We had a lovely weekend. DH sailed and I went to a bridal shower. We both attended a wedding reception. The weather was lovely, and it seemed as though the pall which had hung over us for the month was finally lifting.

Monday, DH went to work, and by the time he came home, his voice was in the basement, with that nasty, croupy sound. I ignored his surliness because he is so rarely rude. I knew it was a sign of just how bad he felt.

Well....now I know how he felt, first hand. Yesterday afternoon, my throat became scratchy. My sinuses started to drain. My voice dropped almost as low as DH's. I'm sick. I feel rotten and life needs to go on. I just want to stay in bed.

Get lots of rest and get better soon!

Oh Kitty, I'm sorry. I know how uncomfortable summer colds can be. Have lots of rest and lots of oranges. And don't worry about the garden - it will still be there when you are better.

oh... nasty, take care and I do hope it goes quickly!
