Winter Cold and Flu Season

[BoomerD]

Bah...everyone in the house is sick this winter. I've been fighting something that resembled strep throat (but thankfully wasn't...I still have my tonsils) and the usual chest congestion/lung fungus that comes with colds.
My wife has the chest congestion crap and generally feels like hell.

My daughter has the chest congestion crap and 2 of the 3 grandkids have been fighting the sore throat stuff I have along with chest congestion, (one also has a nasty case of the pukes.) The third grandchild just has the chest congestion stuff.

It's been a great first week of the semester for me...sick as a dog, don't sleep worth a damn, tired all day. Can barely stay awake in classes...BUT, I go to class every day...gotta share this stuff! 😀

(I figure it's only fair since I usually get it from someone at work or school)

Ah..I had Strep too, right before the semester started. I'm in it with ya, BoomerD.

I'd rather have the flu for 2-3 days than to have Mountain Cedar allergies for two fucking months. I'm dying here.

Been working at a hospital for awhile, thank god they are not publicly traded companies since they are non-profit. I can safely say the most important thing to do is break the habit of touching your nose/face/mouth and wash your hands before you do.

I didn't care at first, and got sick twice in 2 weeks. Enough of that. Hell, I wash my hands before and after I go t the bathroom.

Man, the flu raped the shit out of me last year, but I haven't been sick since. IT would be DISASTROUS if i were to get sick now given the deadlines at work.
