Cough, Round 237


Ugh. It's back. The cough. It's driven H to sleep in the baby's room, driven me to sleepless nights and I've driven myself to the doctor's office to plead for some codeine relief. Nothing works.

And on the nothing works front, we awoke to some veery interesting noises coming from our heating unit this morning. Short answer is that sucker is slowly dying. To the tune of lots of dough, since the builders in the early 80s in their infinite wisdom wedged a large heating system into a tight closet, leaving no room for said units to become obsolete and need to be replaced by bigger/different sized things. Such is the way my Thursday is going. This day can't end soon enough.

Okay, this may sound crazy, but a lot a people swear by it. (I don't know if you have ever tried this or not.) At bedtime, rub Vicks VapoRub on the soles of your feet and put on socks. Many people say that cuts out the cough. It's worth a try, right?

Hope you find some relief. :)
