Woke up a little worse today, but the sore throat is gone, even though I still feel like I'm going to lose my voice. I keep drinking tons of water, which is keeping that from happening, but it's a problem in my line of work, where I can't just get up and pee when I'm with a client! My stomach is definitely off, but this always happens when I have any respiratory thing. Taking Claritin and using nasal rinse and will asses at the end of the day if I am going to head to the Minute Clinic. One of the moms I work with has strep throat, so it's a possibility, even though I don't have any burning sore throat and all of that. I can cut my last person short and go there before I go home, maybe just to give me peace of mind before the blizzard sets in tomorrow. I will be resting until Sunday, when I have a date with the ski trails at Windblown up in NH.

Ugh. Hope you feel better soon and the blizzard isn't too bad!

Yikes Crankin, I just put your location together with the blizzard warnings I've been hearing about! Hope it isn't as bad as forecast, or it is at least moderated in your area! Hope you feel better soon.

My favorite "I feel like crud and I might be coming down with something" tea is Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Echinacea Complete Care. I don't know if it helps anything, but it sure makes an itchy/scratchy throat feel better.

Free time and flexibility are the way to go.

For that 'maybe I'm sick' feeling I'll spike my Sleepytime tea with Jaegermeister.

Can't do the Jaeger -- but perhaps a bit of brandy for me.

Right now the thought of liquor isn't thrilling me. I feel like crap. Heading off to the Minute Clinic in about 45 minutes, as the snow hasn't started yet.
