Can you explain why.......?
 

Hi Guys,

Can anybody explain why.... when I was 20, if I caught a cold I could still go out an dance all night yet now that I am in my 40's.... a silly cold can make me feel like death warmed up!

This week I have been so tired, groggy and yuckkie that I haven't even had the inclination to sew!!!!!!

Oh to be 20 again!

Hugs

I wonder if I'd be smarter the 2nd time around.

Hey, I'd take 40 again. I've also been fighting a cold this week. Hate to tell you but it'll be even harder in 20 years. :)

Old age is no place for the weak, ha ha

I spend alot of time trying not to get sick! I haven't had a bad cold in years but I do remember having the worse colds and flu when I was a child. The older I get the better I feel. Don't have any of the kids around to pass on their ills from school. Do you take vitamins? Try taking some Echinacea a couple of weeks at a time for a few months to build up you immunity. But wait until you're not sick any more to start. At the onset of anything I double down on it for a few days and it seems to knock whatever is trying to get me. I love the more natural remedies.

Ditto on the changes.........big changes........lol

I, too, would take 40 again.....lol

It's not just you :). I just turned 40 a couple weeks ago. This isn't even the worst cold ever, I'm just achy and tired and still have kids to take care of :(
Feel Better!!

Just wait until you get to your mid 60s. 40s was a piece of cake - I got colds ans they lasted about 2 weeks, just like now but, really didn't phase me, now I feel bad for several days.
