Can you believe...

... just a few days before my vacation I catch a cold.  A serious cold and I'm miserable.  Today I made a cold & flu shot.  Juice of one lemon, 1-inch piece fresh ginger, and a pinch of ground pepper.  

The lemon has a high concentrate of vitamin C, ginger helps build the immune system, and the pepper adds quite a kick and helped clear my nose.

Instead of the lemon juice I quartered a whole Meyer lemon.  Interesting!  We'll see how this helps. I do not want to be sick over the first have of my time away.

I Capa, I felt immensely better after drinking this.  I added ice and had a nice glass of Cold & Flu Icee.  It has a kick.  I gave one to my son (who caught the same crud) and he is sounding and feeling better today.  If a person is really sick you could do two a day to knock it down quicker.

I'm feeling better.  Thank you everyone.  I'll keep posted.  My daughter loaned me her laptop.  I have so much stuff packed it looks like I'm moving out permanently!  LOL  If I could take my spinning wheel I would!!!

I hope you feel better because that Sounds good. Keep us posted! I'll add this one to my to do list because I'm not big on taking meds of any kind, so I normally just suffer.... Really, have fun and take care!

Today, I woke up with a puffy eyelid.  But I am feeling a bit better.  My suitcase is packed and my husband asked, "I thought you didn't leave until Tuesday?"  To which I replied, "I don't but I want to be ready."  Poor, poor man.  ;o)

Good golly Miss Molly..how are you feeling? Swish swish! Awaaay you go on your lovely hiatus!

I think that Vit. C shot is helping.  I'm making another for tonight and see how I feel tomorrow.
