Summer Cold Ugh!!!!!!!!!!
« on: August 08, 2007, 08:40:25 pm »
I woke up this morning coughing and sneezing and had a fever and have felt like shit all day. Of all times of the year to get a cold it has to happen in the summer months. >:(

I went down this weekend to visit with Lisa and she got sick on Saturday. Well mine took longer to get to me.

I went to the grocery store this evening and bought orange juice and have just been sitting here coughing and sneezing every since. My head feels like a bowling ball. :'(

Wishing you a speedy recovery Mr. Jerry. Those summer ones seem meaner than those during winter months, don't they.
Hugs between wheezes and sneezes,

Hi Jerry, Summer colds suck. I tried the Zicam nasal gel to work very well for at least shortening the length of a cold. It's over the counter at any drug store.  feel better.

Jerry,

Must be going around. Ed is upstairs, coughing, hacking and sneezing. I felt it coming on on work last night. Now I got a sore throat, and I'm sneezing. Time for some alka-seltzer cold medication.

 This stuff always seems to kick ass for me, and work really well!!

I swear y'all, I really tried not to breathe on him! We yelled our conversation between two rooms because I didn't want to be all up in Jerry's face.
I was sick as a dog on Sunday, as a matter of fact, I recall asking Jer to shoot me on multiple occasions...but Jerry just laughed and laughed. ;)
Chicken soup and popsicles(and plenty of OJ)
No kisses for you til your not sick anymore.  -> only this kind  :-*
