where you can find me right now...


Sorry for the radio silence. 

 I have been sick with a bad spring head cold these last two days and man is this a whopper. Congestion, coughing, headache, sinuses going nuts. I tested negative for the flu and for strep. 

 Yay! 

 I still feel horrid. 
my view for the day...

What remedies do you use in your household for a bad cold or upper respiratory fun?? I would love to know. 

 Looking forward to being back soon, when I can breathe and walk more than ten steps without coughing up a lung.

    Ooh Mary I hope you feel better soon! The picture of your feet showed that you have green walls. We were thinking of doing that in our new house, and since you have such great style, it made me feel like we are making a good choice. Now I'm off to stalk past posts with an eye for that living room design ;)

      Thanks Tara. We have had green walls for seven years and this summer we will be going to blue walls. I have loved the green but I am ready for a change. Green is a lovely color choice though, goes with so much.

    Hoping you feel better soon. I drink lots and lots of hot, black tea and eats eucalypus/mint or lemon drops. If it's very bad we inhale hot chamomliie vapours, blah! but it helps.

    Essential oils! I use DoTerra brand - On Guard and Breathe. They are the best.

    Well Mary, for me it has to be Irish Whiskey (Jameson's) with a squeezed lemon and a spoon of honey and topped up with boiling water. And a couple of paracetamol if the hot toddy doesn't bring sleep! Hope you are feeling a bit better.

    I came down with head and chest stuff last week. I started taking DoTerra On Guard Plus and Mucinex. I was pretty sick for two days, but back to running by day four. Hope you feel better soon. Looking forward to meeting you this Saturday! :)
