Another Sign of Winter...

... my first winter cold is here. Yuck!

I don't normally get sick a lot, but I have definitely caught the head cold that seems to be going around. Normally, when I'm sick, I take off of work, sleep all day and watch daytime television until I get so tired of laying around that I literally force myself to get better!

Unfortunately, right now I am at a critical point in an assignment so I have been dragging myself to work. I am faithfully taking Zicam, and I think the worst is over now. However, why is it when you are sick, all healthy eating/weight loss goals fly out the window?? I am on my second real Coke of the day (yes, the equivalent of a liquid candy bar, but its the only thing that seems to be making me feel better...oh dear!)
Have a good day and stay healthy!

Hope you get well soon!
When I am really sick the only thing that I can get down is ice cold Coke. It's a comfort to me & reminds me of when I was little and my Mom would let me have it when I was sick!

Ugh - hope you feel better soon! And who knows, perhaps the Coke has some hidden cold fighting properties? :)
