    Default Been sick

    Man have I been feeling like crap. Came down with "the bug" that's going around. Seems like everyone I know, home and work has had this cold, cough, headache and general feeling of being wore out.

    I was put on my rear for a few days even missing work. Thank goodness for sick days. Finally, 10 days in I feel human again although a nagging cough still remains.

    Hope y'all are having better luck.

    Same drill here....finally gave up yesterday after 7 days and went to the doctor....hopefully on the mend soon. To make myself feel better I cut off the 7 days of stubble with my Ralf Aust spanish point. You guys stay healthy out there...and if you are not....shave.....you will feel a little better!!

    Sounds like you had the Flu. The worn out part is the clue. it's nasty stuff that lingers.

    I'm pretty sure it was the flu. Had the darn flu shot too, didn't help this year.

    Definitely the flu with those symptoms and it's longevity...feel better. And folks the best way to try to prevent the spread is to wash your hands well and often...

    Flu shot did not do very well this year,I have never had the Flu, nor has my wife.Knock on wood.
    Hand washing is mandatory many times a day,run all your dishes and silverware on a sanitize cycle in the dishwasher.
    Use the wipes they have when using a grocery cart (hundreds push them every day)
    Buy some hand sanitizer at the dollor store,and use it even on a store pull handle.
    The flu can Kill you.Consider a pneumovax shot.

    You are badly mistaken. Those are the unmistakable symptoms of a serious allergy to translucent and black hard Arkansas stones. Brother Wid, I feel for you and will risk contracting the allergy myself, out of the goodness of my heart, cause that is the kind of guy I am

    Send those stones down to me, I'll take the risk for my own health ........

    Glad you're feeling better. I had it a few weeks back and it was very unpleasant.
