Dear Universe:

[donkey_hokey]

Please stop cluttering my path with cold and flu bugs.

Between missing work last week, and taking a couple of (pre-approved) days off next week, I really need to be focussed and productive for work this week.

I'm sure there must be a lesson in here somewhere; I'm just can't quite figure out what it is.

Yr faithful servant,

Sick

[wicky_42]

I don't usually get sick. And when I was teaching and surrounded by sneezing, sniffling, coughing and hacking throughout the winter, I was almost never sick. Is the exposure to germs so constant that the resistance to them is bolstered?

All I know is that I had a short-term cold this fall, after two years of retirement. I find that if I can fend off a cold within the first couple of days; it really does go away.

Take care. I hope adjust is right and you are just going through a 5 year cycle.
