Me too! Or rather we buy each other any gifts any more!

This reminds me of the time when Jim and I
were first married and I wanted a bathrobe. So he went out and bought
me a gold lame jump suite........remember those?? Needless to say, we returned to the store and I did get my fluffy bathrobe.

Oh, all husbands must go thru that stage... when we were first married Ray kept buying me clothes that I thought would look great on a hooker! Spandex, sparkly, shiny... you get it!

OMG........how I remember those days.

Do you realize that now you will not be sitting in front of us on the flight? Guess you and Sheila will just have to get the welcome ready for us.

We had an email from our TA that she was mailing our docs today--

See Nancy, now you and Ken might get some sleep on the flight.

ohhhhh it $uck$ to have the flu, but I can not imagine being on a trip

A frozen Mojito,brenda????????? Now that sounds really good.................Im gonna ask about that this weekend........

ohno Jul.........hope you dont catch it..........

Oh Julie, I don't know if taking Air Borne would help by it is a immune system support, maybe worth a try. Hope your husband feels better soon. Jen hope your mother is better soon as well.

Speaking of Air Borne, when Jim had his doctor's visit at the end of February, I asked him to ask about Air Borne, since I had forgotten during my visit (yes, we both go to the same doctor).

She basically told him not to waste his money. If you are going to get sick on a flight/trip, you are going to get sick. You can take all the precautions, but sometimes that just isn't enough.

The thing she said was to try and be healthy before you leave and not be run downed. If your immune system is running on low power, there is nothing that will help it.

I use Saline nasal spray every night and it really helps.

Oh well they scrape that suggestion

I just wonder if doctor's could sometimes be wrong about OTC medication.

It certainly wouldn't hurt to try it.

IME U.S. doctors are reluctant to accept herbal or alternative remedies. My brother tried in vain to talk me out of seeing a chiropractor and he scoffs at the idea that my dog benefits from acupuncture. I'm pretty down on Western medicine for that reason. It's so, well, arrogant.

Hi everyone,

Wow! I'm on vacation for a couple of weeks and it takes 12 hours to catch up.

Jul - Hope your mum is doing well.

Nancy - Hope SIL is coping well. How is DD holding up?

Now for the good news

Patti - That's wonderful. Are you flying into BA a couple of days early? It was my favorite city in S America - very European.

Diane - Loved the chapel - it'll be a lovely occasion.

Airborne is controversial.....some totally believe in it and some don't.......i feel like if it works for ya then do it..........I use it occasionally, started using Zicam and emergenC........so far so goood , when everyone around me are dropping like flies.....

Hi Jean #2-- it takes 12 hrs to catch up on us?? Do hope that your vacation was good--details, please

SIL-thanks for asking, he has completed the two rounds of chemo, still three more weeks of radiation. Spring break is over so he is back to teaching, we are all so pleased that he is tolerating all of this so well, just really tired and does sleep most of the five hour round trip each day.
DD is also doing great, gaining weight and a nice tummy

Hey there Twitch........how are you. Did you have a nice vacation?

Yes we are leaving home on April 9th arriving BA on the 10th after about 20 hours of traveling. But we will have the 11th and then even though we board on the 12th the ship does not depart until the 13th. And I agree, we just loved BA when we were there last year and hope to see more of it this time around. It sure beats going back to Brazil!

Gosh, now that I think of it, I wonder if they knew we were coming and making sure that we make the ship if we have flight problems like last March.

Oh, I forgot about Zicam. Son swears by it and he's the one who refuses to use nasal spray.

Whatever works, use it, no matter what the doctor says. My doctor doesn't like the way I am losing weight. Tough bananas, it's my body and I know how it reacts to food.
