Shut Up
There I go, getting myself in trouble.....again.
I done cursed myself. I don't know when I'll learn, but I just seem to be a bit slow on the up take here.
You see - I've been running my mouth lately. (THERE'S a surprise!) I've been letting everyone know - I Don't Get Sick. Oh, I'll get an occasional migrane. Or some stomach issues but colds, flus and such? Not really.
Until now. I don't know what it is, but something is kickin' my ass. Scratchy throat - so bad that I'll occassionally lose my voice (which is always a favorite), achy, sniffly. Yep - I know the signs.
So I'm planning on a run to Walgreens during lunch to stock up on all that "Stop The Sickness" stuff, and a good solid nights sleep is on the agenda for tonite.
But damn - you'd think I'd learn to just stop talking!!!!
Posted by Tammi at August 22, 2006 09:13 AM | TrackBackWhen my throat gets scratchy, I mix up some lemon juice and honey. About 3 tsp of honey and 3 dashes of lemon juice. Maybe more or less for both depending on your tastes. Helps relieve the scratchiness and the pain associated with it.
