Cough up a lung, win a prize!

I am at least up and about. I have a raspy throat and my belly muscles  feel like they did 20 pilates classes in a row... what a workout coughing all night is!  I think I'll be resorting to some form of cough syrup so I can actually sleep..Enough about me.. how about you?

Here in Bisbee:

Gretchen is busy getting ready for the Art Car Gathering this weekend.
Jenna and Larry are gearing up for thier post-wedding weekend.
The Cilch Sisters are rolling in from San Diego in a few days.
Kate P is back from her long journey to the east coast.
Juliette is baking bread.

I moved a daybed into the kitchen. Since I don't yet have my corner booth, it's the next best thing. I can make a cuppa coffee and then take a nap if needed! My energy is pretty low.. can you tell? I move a few things... vacuum a bit.. and then lay down. I am still pretty jacked up.But I'm trying to figure out how to configure the wee living room.Keeping in mind that I'll have to pop out my front window to get my couch in here, I'm looking at possibilities.

I have Sixteen Candles on in the kitchen... one of my fave movies.

I think a hot cup of tea is in order (it's a vessel for gobs of honey...) I need a break. And maybe a nap.

Sorry you are feeling ill, but sometimes this happens after you have put forth so much effort, then the body comes down with a horrid cold, to slow everything down. Get better by the weekend!!!

Pei Pa Koa (www.geocities.jp/ninjiom_hong_kong/index_e.htm ) is one of the few Chinese natural cough remedies that have been scientifically studied. it's something like herb plus honey, and it's sweet, thick and black in color. If you have a cough, look for it! It used to be one of my favourite natural cough remedies.

if your cough persists, seek professional help such as traditional Chinese medicine physicians - I have had very good experiences with them.
