Here’s a comment from Annette,

All of you get some elderberry syrup and start taking it. It’s kind of expensive but it really works for keeping colds down to a few days and keeping it at bay for Lori. I’m sure Whole Foods has it or the drug store. It really does work. Hope everything works out.
Well I didn’t get that but Lori did get a Z Pak which we both split. We’ll get another one today so we can finish out the doses. I felt like puking yesterday morning so I ended up skipping Vail and today I’m all stuffed and congested and just can’t do 7 1/2 to 8 hours in the car today, so no Aspen. On top of that it’s supposed to snow pretty good in the mountains today and tomorrow. Hopefully it’ll be letting up by Friday morning. I don’t know how Lori is feeling as she’s still in bed. We’re just praying she doesn’t have a fever as that’ll put a big stop to the surgery.
I was on with the insurance company for over an hour yesterday trying to figure out bills and charges from my surgery in May. I pointed out several inconsistencies to the nice young girl who kept saying “hmm, that’s a good question”. Not real comforting when they can’t tell you whether a certain bill is real or not meaning should they pay or me. One was for $100 for a bed pan and I never stayed in a hospital bed at all! In any case she said she’ll get back to me by the end of the week. Wait till the misses surgery is over, I’m sure we’ll have a bunch of stuff to review then too.
It’s going to be cold and snowy tomorrow but we’re hoping it clears out Friday am when we hit the road. We’re just going to have to chance it as we can’t go tomorrow night as it’ll be snowing hard for sure. Mojo says he’s looking forward to the snow, you know how those Alaskan Malamutes are, always wanting snowy cold weather. Right now though, he’s lying by my feet all stretched out.
Ty has a basketball game tonight that neither of us feel like taking him to but we’ll have to rally. I still can’t believe I picked up this cold, what timing. Oh well, what are you going to do, not like the World is going to stop because I have a cold, just have to pick myself up and move on. I’ll just keep that 5 foot barrier between Lori and I.
Take care and God Bless
