I've got one nasty cold.  Coughing, sneezing, blowing my nose, wiping my eyes...it sure hit fast and hard. I ended up staying awake until about 8:30am or so, but that means I got to make my phone call that I missed yesterday.  I won't know until next week (hopefully Monday) whether or not I will be job shadowing or not.  She's aiming to set up something for the end of next week...so *keep fingers crossed*.  I think it will be good for me to be working again...or at the very least to try it. I finished off some of the painted penny magnets, and have painted more penny's to make into magnets.  I'm quite happy with them.  I'll try to remember to take pictures of them soon. I'm cutting back on the drinking.  Partly because I barely have any less, partly because I know I have to.  I did have a glass of cranberry juice mixed with fireball whisky.  Oddly it helps the coughing...it kind of seems to work like cough syrup.   I'm kind of tired so I'm going to go relax for a bit and take it easy.  Then try to have a good night sleep.

Thought i\'d pay my respects in return by responding to your journal entries :)...Thanks for your support...As for your not feeling well, that sucks. I know when I had this nasty cough that just wouldn\'t go away, it kept me up for hours...IT\'s done worse on my vocal chords, adding on to my strikes against me, like age, on being the next American Idol . But enought about me...drink some vinegar water...ewww, I know, sounds awful. Or if that doesn\'t suit you, some hot tea, not sure if with honey will help but who knows....And wean off the alcohol if you can...Gotta stay sober for the moments you get the inspiration to write again :) ***Lots of Luv***

It sounds like you\'re doing great. Awesome job getting back out there for work and making a step towards not drinking as much! I\'ll be keeping my fingers crossed for the job shadowing!

Get some fresh lemons and make lemonade or put it in hot tea with honey, both will help your cold, there is nothing like fresh vitamin C!
