All together, we have very broad shoulders, so if any one of our members needs a shoulder to cry on, you can always find one here. We've probably all been near to being there at one time or another. Hugs to you!!

Hugs! I hope you feel better soon!

Okay -- try to stop the cycle. Give each person a paper bag and tell them their used tissues have to be put in that bag. Buy paper plates, glasses and plastic dinnerware and have them toss them in that bag, too. Have them carry the bag out to the garbage. Put a glass of bleach or hydrogen peroxide next to the toothbrushes and have them dip their brush in it BEFORE they brush their teeth. Teach them all to cough or sneeze into their arm pit....LOL sounds funny...but prevents germs on the hands. Those germy hands open doors, turn on lights.....
Good luck!!!!!!

Love this! I have been coating the house in Lysol for the past two weeks and replaced the tooth brushes and added a splash of bleach to the dish water but I had already contracted it. We tell the girls to cough or sneeze into the crook of their arms to make it safer and then to change their clothes. I'm on the mend from the flu, though. It's just the sciatic nerve that's hurting.

Well, I'm feeling much better. After hours of couch time, I finally got the row ripped out so I can re-stitch it in the morning.

My sciatic nerve hasn't acted up in over a year and in that time, I've switched doctors so my new doctor (who wasn't even in today) doesn't have any notes on treating me so my hubby's doctor, who I did end up seeing, prescribed me oxycodone (where I normally take hydrocodone). I didn't realize there was such a difference but I've been loopy for the last hour. To the point where DH told me to step away from the seam ripper. :lol: He was terrified I was going to rip the wrong seam and be frantic in the morning for it or that I would poke holes in the quilt. Feeling a little more like myself now but definitely ready for bed.

Whats a bit of venting among thousands of friends...a remedy for what ails ya..hope you are feeling much better
