@much2say I need to cut my fresh pineapple. I have consumed a lot of beverages today. Thyme tea, water with lemon, orange juice, along with the coffee for the day too.I think a gargle with salt water is in order.

@GardenGerty We drink water with a zip of organic apple cider vinegar in it when we have a sore throat. My son had a sore throat the other day and drank honey/water all day . . . he claims the sore throat was gone by the end of the day.

I think it often starts with pollen and such with the season changing.

@GardenGerty It is raining today, so there are no pollen in the air.

Last year I had cold symptoms for six weeks straight, then started drinking tea made of thyme leaves. It is morning now. I had forgotten that thyme tea is so helpful, so after my first cup of coffee that is what I will drink.

@just4him Now I am just stuffy. Dratted cold. Not near so bad as what you were going through, though.

@GardenGerty That's good to hear. It's always good to do something different on the weekend.

I may have the same thing the student has. That is how it usually goes. I think the relaxing change of scenery is good medicine, though.

Swimming is great exercise. I get a lot of exercise with my job anyway.

You are having the weather I am having here in Kansas. We are far away from any coasts so no hurricane activity. I had to water all of my plants outdoors last night as we have not had rain in a while. The dryness and the dust and pollen make us feel bad.

I make tea from thyme leaves. I do eat ginger on many foods and sometimes ginger tea, sometimes chai.

Well, the sore throat went away but I do have cold symptoms. I will live. It will be okay. Going to work tomorrow will distract me.

@trayonthomas I did not learn to swim until I was a student in college. We were required to take a phys. ed. class every semester. I chose to take swimming. I am an okay swimmer. I really enjoy the water. You could possibly contact a YMCA or the American Red Cross to learn about adult lessons.
