Thanks Charlie, thought I was pretty much over it, but several trips to the loo this morning tells me otherwise.

Yeah, what Racer said. It's no fun going through being gone through, but it's the only way to get rid of whatever it is you need to rid yourself of.

Ok, that statement should come with a footnote. I have had evil lurking within that needed a bit of help by antibiotics in addition, but those trips were still required. Right now I think Charlie is a more probable subject of such ailments than you are, though.

Just see to it that you don't get dehydrated and you will pull through eventually.

Thanks for the encouragement guys!
Sorry to hear about your situation Eddie, hope you have a fast recovery.

I think it's viral, Mrs Bob has an issue too, she barfed a few times very early Monday morning and felt bad for a couple of days.
I only barfed once, the other end has been my problem.
One of our mistakes was feeling well enough by yesterday evening for a small meal of bbq and sides, I even had a couple of bourbons on the rocks. She has had a queasy stomach today.
Too soon for all that I'm sure. Chicken broth on the menu tonight.

We got some snow last night and my new-old snowblower didn't fail me....choke, two squirts on the primer, one pull....vroom! Did our lane way and other half we share with the neighbour beside...and two neighbors beside us. Fun FUn FUN!

All this talk of being sickly.

Racer got a chest cold a week and a half ago.

It has finally stopped kicking his ass.

Still some throat soreness and coughing, but on the mend.

There, I said it.

Time for a soothing shot of scotch.

Sipped smoothly.

For medicinal purposes of course.

And your driveways and yards buried.

Build a terrain park and get those freestyle skis out.

Sweet.

I'm sipping some of Mrs Bob's sparkling apple water.
Since it's carbonated, I put a pinch of salt in to un-carbonate it.
Pretty tasty, reminds me of being a kid and eating green (unripe) apples with salt.
Along with a piece of toast it's helping stop my hunger pangs.

eddie1960 · 02-21-2019, 05:49 PM

wow i havent had applea w salt since i was a kid

Racer X 69 · 02-21-2019, 05:56 PM - **1 Like**

I don't add salt to anything.

Otherwise the doctor will threaten me with blood pressure drugs when he finds my blood pressure too high.

Besides, bacon has enough salt for me and all of you combined.
