    Good Morning, everyone.  I have a referral to an Allergist sitting on my desk, I just forget because other doctor appointments take precedence.  Guess I should follow up.

    I have thought about that for gardening for sure.  I usually feel totally yucky by an hour after starting outdoor work.  I hate the painting masks, they stink!

    Okay, I just heard duct tape is good for just about everything.

    Hi all.  I'm about ready to try the duct tape - anything that might get me through this allergy season.  I've been wiped out for a few days.  WD40, Hmmmmmmm, maybe if I rub it all over my neck?  Do you get the feeling I might be desperate! 

    Night all.  (see, don't even have strength to name you all but you know who you are, right?)

    Good morning.  DH and I have been down with the flu for the last day.  Can someone come over and help me make the bed again?  Our tossing and turning has left a pile of sheets and blankets in the center of the bed but nothing tucked in.  Neither of us has been out of bed for more than a minute or two in the last 22 hours.

    Meece...I left homemade chicken soup at your door last night.

    Just rest. Ill tuck you in tonight.

    Patoo...How are you feeling today?

    I got up for a while but just crawled into bed again.  The soup hit the spot.  Thank you, Seyla.  If I didn't know better, the back pain feels like a kidney infection.  I will keep my distance for the next day or two so nobody else gets this bug.

    My turn to leave the soup tonight Meece.  And how about some nice warm, homemade, buttermilk rolls to go with it.  Don't let it get cold.

    Can't make the bed though because you and hubby won't stay out of it long enough for me to get around the other side. 

    Seyla, thanks for asking.  Nose still running but I still go out for my walks and that doesn't help.  Today and tomorrow the pollen count is elevated.  Maybe I should put on a mask.

    I am looking forward to your soup and biscuits, Patoo.  Just woke from another nap, but DH and I fixed the bed before I jumped back in it.

    DH just came in to tell me we have to go into town in a couple hours. Yuk!

    Meece, Patoo and Meece DH - take it easy!!!  I managed to get the bed dressed while DH went to the 'little boys room' :-)).

    I think some nice old fashioned rice pudding should help so I'll leave it in the oven on a very low heat but eat it before it dries out (and before any of the others realise it's there although it is a large one!!).  And we have a tangerine red lemonade drink here that is only available locally and when I was a child (and I have carried it into adulthood) it was a cure all - so I'm going to leave a thermos jug full of hot "Tanora" out for you too. And for those of you who would just like to try it I'll leave a few cans there for you. 

    Our airspace has been made a 'no fly zone' so I'm really sorry I just can't pop over to visit for the time being!!!!

    Have a good night everyone!!

    Ainm, I LOVE rice pudding!  Mmm warm rice pudding sounds just perfect.  The Tanora sounds deliscious, too.  My tummy is actually grumbling right now.  Guess I need to put something in it.  On our way home yesterday we stopped and got a couple of 2-liter 7-ups, which is another cure all from childhood.  I don't like it at any other time.

    Good night Ainm, Thanks.

    Good night everyone!

    Meece I left the soup and biscuits for you and your DH.  Enjoy and feel better.

    Night Seyla.  Night JO.  Night Joni.  Night Barb_K.  Sweet dreams Ainm.
