darn it - i seem to have another cold. i have the worst immune system ever. i just got a call today from my naturopath dr saying that the blood test results were normal, so no thyroid problems, iron deficiencies, or gluten intolerance. if my nose is still completely stuffed tonight as it is right now, i'm to try the wet sock therapy - take a thin layer of socks (cotton) and wet them; put on a layer of wool socks over them; go to bed & try to sleep. i don't understand how it works exactly - something about the blood circulating to the feet to warm them up clears up congestion - but i'm willing to try it as i'm unable to take things like nyquil. yay. what fun.
we had more trick-or-treaters this year. almost ran out of candy, which is good so we don't have much extra. j & i enjoyed a couple rib eye steaks that we've had in the freezer for awhile, and enjoyed a bottle of wine left over from our wedding. we watched the movie "the prizewinner of defiance, ohio". wonderful movie, but somewhat depressing. reminds me of how lucky i am to find someone like j. makes me very thankful for my life, despite the many colds. :)
