yuck!




when is this weather going to finally break?!?!?!

i don't know about anyone else but we have been sharing our germs all winter at my house, one gets a cold or the flu and slowly it makes it's way through the other 5 of us...now this is getting RIDICULOUS!!! it is the end of march and 2 of our daughters and myself have the flu...AGAIN!!!!

i am through with taking prescriptions, everytime the baby has the sniffles the peditircian is prescribing steroids, whats that all about?!?! remind me to use some vapo rub, the humidifier and prescribe lots of snuggeling (maybe some tylenol to make her comfortable)

today i went to the naturopath and he suggested zinc, echinacea with goldenseal and vitamin c...(not orange juice due to the high sugar content)for myself as well as the kids...what a novel idea, using herbs and vitamins and minerals instead of chemically altered prescriptions!!! believe me, i have NOTHING against prescriptions or drug companies, there is a time and place for them, just not with EVERY ILLNESS!!!

if you don't have a health food store in your area check out puritans pride or even drugstore.com
