I even have been looking for a container that could hold them all in one place. They seem to migrate all over the cupboard. So sorry you have had a cold. I hope you are feeling better.

That is not to say I'm not restless, anxious, but exactly as you say, I"m grateful that it's a passing thing. (this cough, too? please? ugh)<br /><br />I'm gonna go see what you read.

I had been keeping some for years, thinking the match would show up, but I forced myself to throw them away - actually I put them in the recycling bin. That cold sounds like the same bug Warren and I have had - a virus that not only gives cold symptoms but upsets your digestive tract as well. It's going on 3 weeks, and I'm still not completely over it. I haven't been able to find any gratitude for it, but I do understand what you are saying. Hope yours doesn't last so long. The cold, that is, not the gratitude!Karen Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02290174945984464344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-27987287933629399452011-01-31T10:20:13.397-05:002011-01-31T10:20:13.397-05:00I have those winter shoe life savers too.

I did slip on some ice while using them this morning however. The straight ice is tricky no matter what kind of shoe!<br /><br />Also - on colds, I try to take two tsp. of elderberry syrup throughout winter (though I don't always keep up with this). It really helps with knocking colds out before they become full blown.<br /><br />KarlaSugar Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09493005423891531330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-35538973120902126992011-01-31T10:14:27.738-05:002011-01-31T10:14:27.738-05:00Interesing about those lids, isn't it!?

I periodically go through and match bowls to lids, inevitably find one or the other without a match, discard it, and then the cycle will repeat itself. Makes you wonder if the Borrowers get them along with the socks! <br /><br />Your cold/flu sounds very similar to what I had a few weeks ago. Started out with a bad stomack flu and then progressed to cold symptoms with chest congestion and cough. Unfortunately, the cough was the last thing to go, just this week. <br /><br />Hope you are feeling better!jet1960https://www.blogger.com/profile/15745911621562105192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-32417443840709130952011-01-30T23:04:02.017-05:002011-01-30T23:04:02.017-05:00Oh Jeanie.

I have avoided colds so far this winter, knock on wood, but last weekend my daughter was kind enough to share the stomach flu with me. Yikes and yuck! Don't need to visit that again.<br /><br />And half of your lids are in Linda's pantry and the other half are in mine. Someone needs to invent something!!!<br /><br />I am waiting for the big storm predicted to blow in, Tuesday. I can't wait! There is nothing like extreme weather for excitement. I love the sound of the wind, the crystals hitting the windows, and the quiet afterward, when the snow muffles all sounds and cars can't get down the streets. And the best part of all, school is canceled! <br /><br />haha.

Aren't they a pain?<br /><br />No disease or condition ever is exactly like another, but I have a cousin who lives with asthma and bronchitis and a whole variety of associated symptoms, and it is hard - for her and everyone around her. When she begins her uncontrollable coughing, we all want to DO something for her - and we can't. But like you, she's in the midst of a winter cold right now - and that's all it is. I hope you heal up as rapidly as she seems to be - more citrus, girl!<br /><br />And I love those white tulips!shoreacreshttp://shoreacres.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-76535719952882727912011-01-30T01:12:53.909-05:002011-01-30T01:12:53.909-05:00Those pesky old colds (and coughs!) can last way t...Those pesky old colds (and coughs!) can last way too long.
