Damn summer colds!! Mood
Monday, June 29, 2009 | A General Update story

I hate summer solds!  Thank pharmaceutical companies for Benadryl.  But when I take it, I do nothing but sleep.  I probably wouldn't be awake now but 2 of my nephews stopped by to borrow some of Bear's tools.

 

Well, Mom, my niece and I are gonna "get away from it all" the first of August.  We have a Grand Canyon Railway package booked for the 3rd - 5th.  We stay at the Railway Hotel in Williams, AZ the first night and then the Maswik Lodge at the canyon the second night.  We won't be back to Williams until late on the 5th so we have booked a room for the night and then we will take the scenic route back home...driving through Prescott, AZ.....one of my mother's favorite places.  I'm looking forward to getting away for a while and hoping to leave the dragon at home.  

 

Bear has actually been much more sympathetic and helping towards me lately and its made things here at home much easier.  I think it must be his new meds....he still has a ways to go yet but we are making progress.

 

Well...'bout to fall asleep again.  If the dragon is around, I can't stay awake long enough to even tell.

    Don't take that med that comes with a nasal swab, Zicam! Some users have lost their sense of taste/smell.

    Have a wonderful trip when you do go. How nice to enjoy that with your mom. Glad to hear that except for the dreaded cold you are feeling better. Agree with oldmanbear - Zicam does do that. It happened to my daughter but thank God it came back. For some people it doesn't. How can they put t his shit on the market and get away with it. I think the old natural remedies my Italian grandmother did are the best. Take care and have a good week. So fun to hear from you.

    Have a great trip - leave the cold behind! It sounds like a great time - wish I could be there with you! Enjoy the time with your mom - another thing I wish I could do.
