Cold Spell

We’ve been beset with colds here at the House of Mombian, thanks to the petri dish that is our son’s preschool class. Whenever he comes home with a sniffle, I start popping the vitamin C in the vain hope it will slow the oncoming train bearing down on my sinuses.

Enough strained metaphors; it’s time for this week’s poll:

When I have a cold, my philosophy is:

• Nothing cures the common cold. Best to let my nose run its course.
• Better living through chemistry. OTC meds all the way.
• I'll stick with tea and natural supplements (echinacea, vitamin C, zinc, etc.)
• I like to cover all bases. Some combination of the above two.

   We have been battling strep throat over here courtesy of our son’s preschool. I am on antibiotic number 2 now and am hoping this one at least slows it down a bit….is it summer yet?

   Hey Dana, consider yourself tagged. We invite you to post a 6-word memoir, mention your tagger, and then tag 5 more bloggers and let them know they’ve been invited to do the same. Me, I narrowed my memoir down to three words. Why be verbose.
   Happy blogging!

   I love my neti pot! It gets (amost) everything out so you don’t have to sniffle and blow all day long. Too bad I can’t get my kids (5 & 7 yrs. old) to use it yet.
