I dunno. I could ask.

If you do get some lemons, put some distilled water in a glass, a small half glass full, then squeeze half a lemon in there, and a bit of baking soda (1/4 tsp). It'll fizz up like a volcano ^_^

That's the fun part, but do this over a sink. Then drink it down. It will open up your breathing passages and boost yer immune system.

Praying, my friend (((hug)))

Deuteronomy 28:13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:
My son, hearken to my words, for they are life to those who find them and health to all there flesh. Proverbs 4:20-23

God gave us an immune system for a reason. We get sick.

This morning I was thinking about you guys, Brinny and W2L, and I realized I know almost nothing about you guys.
Then earlier today I was in a thread talking about online fellowship. This only reinforced what I had been thinking about. I consider the 2 of you to be friends, but I don't even know your names.
And I don't know how much you know about me, unless you had read all my posts, then you might.
So a little about me.
I was born just over 54 years ago.
I live in Wyoming, Michigan (a suburb of Grand Rapids).
I have traveled very little. The only time I left the USA was when I went to Toronto on a church bike ride.
4oo some miles on a bicycle. I was in a lot better shape in my 20's.
After I got out of prison (if you haven't heard this before, I will tell it again) I had a hard time keeping a job, they would let me go as soon as upper management found out I was a registered sex offender.
A couple years ago I got an opportunity to start my own business. So now I make keys. My website is
www.beachslock.com
I don't make a lot of money there, but then again I do not need a lot. My house is paid for, my vehicle is paid for.
My Mom did that for me while I was in prison.
f you have questions, I have answers.

I was given this song around August or September of 2012.
They told me I would get out of prison sometime in September or maybe October.
October came and went.
Then they told me I would be out by Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving came and went.
They told me I would be home in time for Christmas. Christmas came and went.
Then they finally gave me a sure date. Jan 8th of 2013.
I left prison on Jan 9th.
Note the line in this song, I thought we were going home today.

Hi Doug and W2L. Although i don't give out personal information online, i consider both of you my friends and brothers in Christ. It's been a real refuge here, in this thread, where i can bring my weary self (cuz it's been very discouraging for me lately).

And we're all sinners, saved by the inexplicable grace and mercy of God. ALL of us. It is written that those who are forgiven for much are forever thankful to the God Who made it possible to even BE forgiven, and have a deep love in their hearts for this God. (I can't remember which verse that is).

That's a powerful song Doug, especially the lyrics.

Amen.
