I have been stricken with the creeping gomboo and since the first twinge have been treating myself with Zicam.
That seems to have made some difference, but has caused the gomboo to creep rather than rage. It has quietly come very slowly, one symptom at a time. Fortunately, the malaise has not stopped me from functioning. (It's a Taylor thing: "Get up and get going and you'll feel better.") In fact, on Friday evening we joined Hank and Colette and their local children for dinner at P712. It was, as always, delicious.
Sunday I was well enough to go to church and teach the 3rd J.S. lesson and well enough to make Sunday dinner.
On Saturday morning, Katy awoke with a raging case of the same junk and had to cancel all her plans for temple and an outing with the Hastings, which made her very sad. (Emily has been stricken as well.) We three gathered around the fire and began a Lord of the Rings marathon which continued into Sunday evening and will probably finish today.
Kris is feeling edgy because, so far, she has escaped the nastiness but is rather sure it will catch her at some point. This hasn't been a very festive way to spend a holiday weekend, but at least we didn't have to be anywhere. Thank heavens for Robitussin and Ibuprofen!
Here's hoping you all are well.

Way to muscle through the sikness!Feel better soon!
Here's to a speedy recovery and here is to me not getting whatever you guys have!
Gute Besserung! What could be more festive than a LOTR marathon?
I started to get Jamie's flu last week (flu lasts a few days tops in Jamie's cast iron system). I lay in bed for three days and pumped about 3 gallons of water a day through my system. I never got sick, but I'm still not better. I would say though, that a slow, gentle sickness is better than the knock-down, drag-out version.
I've been using Zicam since Anna introduced me a year ago. Don't whether it works, but I haven't had any lingering colds! Hope you get feeling better soon.
