    Good for you!!! Lends another meaning to the term "catnap".

    I'm not a napper, but this morning I had to get up at 4 am to drive to court in Fresno (the nicest US District courthouse I have EVER been in), 3 1/2 hours each way, one handed, and my busted up arm is just aching right now. No time to nap as I have to get some more work done, but I will be going to bed VERY early tonight.

    V- I had a very bad cold starting the day after Christmas. My sore throat lasted a little over 2 weeks. That cold totally kicked me in my you know what. I too slept quite a bit. So I can empathize with you. Hope you are feeling better and can get out and ride.

    I'm planning on about 60 miles tomorrow with some friends. It was the headache I think that really got me. Lots of Advil Cold and Sinus has helped.

    I am lucky, I usually don't get headaches. Hope you had a great ride.

    V - Hope you're feeling better! I've had a cold/throat since xmas, it's been up and down. I've been drinking throat coat tea for my throat and it helps ease the misery. I'm currenly on my second round of antibiotics (fingers crossed that this will take care of it).

    Keep napping, drink some warm tea, read a good book, do a little exercise, eat some cookies and repeat.

    I rarely get sick, but when I do, it's almost always because I'm under stress and have not been getting enough sleep.

    Getting adequate sleep is often overlooked as we try to do everything. I noticed the OP gets up at 4am...While we are all different, I could never do that unless I went to bed at 8pm at the latest.
