last night I dug out the Vicks…

been struggling with this cold since about Tuesday and was trying to figure out what to try…

really wanted a hot toddy, but the alcohol and honey are not really on the list of things to put into my body nowadays…

brought back such dear memories of my beloved… 

when he’d get a cold he would slather his chest with Vicks VapoRub, wrap a worn sock around his neck and head to bed…

the entire bedroom would reek… but he always claimed it worked for him…it was something his family had done for years, lol…

I only put it under my nose, although I couldn’t even tell it was there, because I couldn’t smell anything…

tonight I may put a bit more on and see how I feel in the morning…

sure do miss my beloved…
