A Cough - JUST a cough!

I've had a cough for a few weeks now. I get bronchitis several times a year, so it's no big deal. I'm used to my ribs hurting for several months at a time. And no medication helps.

We needed to get some potato chips (for Tween!) and to stock up on bottled water (our filter doesn't work well) so Tween and I were in Wal-Mart. I coughed into my elbow but still... the looks people were giving me! You'd think I'd personally gone to Mexico, contracted swine flu, come to Colorado and went shopping just to spread it.

It's just a cough, people!

Anyway, I'm staying home for a while. Packing to get the house ready to sell in June. Writing and working on a couple of books. But I'll stay home so people around me will feel safe. I'll pack, write, drink lots of water, make some tea and drink that, ride the exercycle, and maybe, just maybe, I'll take some naps (got 3 hours of sleep last night).

Be well, everyone.

Did you see Letterman the other night? Our Lt. Gov. here in Iowa was announcing the safety of all products pork, when she began a coughing fit and couldn't finish her speech. Letterman found that hilarious. Apparently the other shoppers didn't find your coughing fit as funny. Humorless people. :)
