I left work early

9 years ago

Eyes are watering, nose running, throat scratchy. I experienced a miracle as well. When I stopped at the walk in clinic there was not a soul ahead of me. I got a shot in the butt, and some RX's to fill. Stopped at Walgreens, and got me some Dayquil, nitequil, halls cough drops, and then the grocer for honey and tea. I just turned on the mattress warmer, so when I finish my tea, I am off to bed where I can play in the net and be comfy. I think I will look at homes in Florida. I hate cold weather !!

Sounds like a good plan to me. How soon do you have to go back to work?

Hey, Terry. Don't know about a place in Bhm but I goto a place here in Prattville that is always honest and does good repairs. If coming this way, take the first exit, hwy 31 into town. Go through the main intersection, Walgreens on your left and Exon and McDonald's on your right. Just a little ways and Steve's repair is on your right. You'll see the lawn tractors parked out front. Even the girls at the desk know what they're talking about. They all are real helpful. Lynn

I like the outlining of your bed with rocks and it sounds like you will have a nice rich bed for those seedlings. Your lucky to have so many pods. I've got only 2 pods from crosses I did this year but that is okay. I'm running out of space for new seedling beds or should I say, I'm not willing to create another seedling bed LOL. Still have 4 trays of seedlings to get in the ground. Nice seedling pic. Julia

Can I use Bona traffic left-over from previous work?

Not to worry, Annie. The hardener just needs to be in a flowing condition and not gelled. If it will flow, you should be fine. I have mixed small amounts to do an occasional molding, saddle or other wood item and it's been fine. Try to mix it at the recommended ratio...i.e. one part hardener to ten parts Traffic.

I found the heat resistant fabric at a few places on-line for about $7/yard. It is called therma-flec. We talked in class that Joanna's sells some but it is quilted. The pattern calls for 2 layers of batting, so you could probably use the stuff from Joann's and just one more layer of batting. You can find the pattern on-line. It is made by sisters' common thread and it comes with the heat fabric. You can google iron tote pattern and find it, too. Robbi

When ever I want to go back. It's just a job to pay for the inflated cost of our insurance. I help out a friend in their business doing books, running errands and making deliveries.

Hope you feel better soon. I tell you....if I lived in a cold climate, I would definitely look for a home in Florida, or Louisiana, or the Texas Gulf Coast...where I already live. We have had some unseasonably warm temps the past few days. Turning a little colder now. So many people have complained about them, but not me. I feel like every warm day we have is one less day that will be cold between now and spring. Bring on the warm!

It sounds like you have everything planned for a nice warm nap. I hope you wake up feeling better, that the prescriptions will begin to kick in quickly.

We have an unusually cold weather front approaching this weekend that is supposed to hang around several days. I'm dreading it (days below freezing, hardly ever happens here), I don't like cold. Or dark. Is it March yet? I'm feeling clumsy in my winter coat ;0) What a whiny baby I must appear to be in my coastal Z8 when so many of you are really experiencing winter.

Be well soon....

I hope you feel better tomorrow, or at least soon after. I could not hang around in Florida on my budget.... I hate the cold too, but lately it has been so nice here in Oklahoma... I know, I will make it.

Good luck.

I hopped into the sauna with a menthol/eucalyptus bath bomb, and wow, that was nice. I am not sleepy, but just lying here playing now.

A mattress warmer? Tell me more! (I love my little cairn terrier, but she's not much of a warmer-upper!)

We had one of those bugs going around here. Started the same way. It took about 2 weeks to feel better but the darn cough just lingers on and on. Take care get lots of rest and fluids and take vitamins to keep yourself in balance. I would love that sauna!

I am with you Marilyn! I'm enjoying the weather. Had the Ac on till today.

Good luck kicking the bug.

I've just come down with pretty much the same thing - lots of sneezing, runny nose, scratchy throat and a cough. Think I must have contracted something Christmas day as the family dinner was large and included a number of the hosts' friends as well and these things seem to pop up with me when I encounter a crowd of people.

Had an early night last night, took some ibuprofen and slept late. Feel much better this morning than I did yesterday afternoon and evening but not planning a busy day. IME, a lot of rest and fluids is what's called for to beat it quickly!!

I've had the "crud" for almost two weeks. I'll feel better and then I over do it and get to feeling bad again. My husband has been fighting it for THREE weeks. He's almost 100% now.

I am still not much better, but a least I'm warm and comfortable. Tobey is boiling a chicken and will make us some home made noodles to go with it. I'll feel better for a short while then wham, back in the bed. I guess is will run it's course in time.
