Well with a slight chest cough this last saturday and sunday, i woke up monday unable to speak without coughing, tue morning was even worse and got me to call into work along with today, fever of 100.5-7* and not eating anything but water and pills, ugh, what a way to lose weight, today's the Dr's appt as i am feeling part way human and might get called in for the rest of the week off, hate to show up to work and have them infected, i work at a prison and alot of yards are shut down due to this. Anyone else go through this yet?? Good luck in not catching it.

no pic to give, just posted one of Abbi not too long ago, Radar is yet to arrive due to flippin weather issues, going back to stormy weather and im sure not going to show my ugly mug looking like this. Just glad critters don't get our sicknesses, I amoungst alot of you would be in a world of hurt and those asked to take care of them for us who may not like the idea.

i havent seen to much of anything this year, allthough i heard about 60% of people the got the flu shot still got the flu... lol i guess they missed this year, wrong strand!!

i did get a a bit of a cold but it didnt last, so that and this crazy dry winter air is doing a job on my nose bleeds, other than that ive been able to stay pretty healthy.

lol i use saline 4 or 5 times a day plus afrin when needed. i have a humidifier going plus i use aquaphore (its kinda like vasoleen), and i still get a pretty good bleed 3 or 4 times a week, just had one on monday at work and another again this afternoon.

ive been getting bad nose bleeds since i was a little kid, cant do anything about it. ive gone to the emergency room twice because of them, and ive been coterized at LEAST 5 times now. im about to go in for it again soon, that usually at the very least slows them down for about a year, but thats all.

I work outside, so I've had one bug or another pretty much constantly since it got cold out. Bah! Nothing too bad yet, though. Feel better!
