Some beautiful sunshine this morning. I am looking forward to my Tgiving trip later this week, although am concerned because I have a bit of a cold, the sore throat has morphed into a bit of cough. I have phlegm in my throat. I hope I can cough it up, because I need to be over this for my trip to go off as planned. I really would not want my parents to get this cold. It could be dangerous for them and my dad especially if he gets some sort of cold it never really seems to go away. It could turn into pneumonia etc. I had planned to stay at Sis's house, but if I am still coughing..I really can't do that. Her house isn't big and I would have to share the half bath with M and D. I would stay in friend's motel room as an alternative. What's up with you today?

@rakski Hopefully, I will stop coughing soon. I think I got a lot of phlegm out.

I understand your concern having a cold and going to a gathering.
Eat some chicken soup, I swear by chicken soup, it always puts me in a much better way.
Try your hardest to stay away from the cold OTC medications, they only mask it and do not allow it to run its course.
We are having a quiet day today.
I should run the vacuum since I won't be home tomorrow to do it.

@snowy22315 I don't like honey in my coffee, but I have granola bars with honey in them.
I hope that you have some fresh fruit in the fridge, that will work.
One of my brother-in-laws has a glass of fresh lemon juice in water every morning, and he claims that is what keeps him healthy.

Hope you get better in time for your trip. I used to have coughing problems - and bronchitis every winter no fail. I swear by a zap of good quality apple cider vinegar in your water daily . . . the coughing issues have gone away and I never get bronchitis now. We also drink honey-lemon with warm water for sore throats.

I take apple cider vinegar in gummy form, but I just ran out of it. I can't stand the taste of it to drink. Perhaps if I diluted it enough..I could drink it.

The plan is to be gone on Weds and Thus. We will head back here on Friday. I think I need a Vitamin C infusion! Maybe I should try to get some kind of cough syrup with expectorant.

Sore throat is really annoying and frustrating to have. I have difficulty swallowing food when I have sore throat. I can understand your pain
