Just ran across this old poem while looking for another and thought it was funny.

I do remember that cold.

I'm fine now though, I lived.;)

I've got a summer cold. It's the worst one yet. I had pneumonia once for sure, But worse colds I forget. My sinus hurts, my throat hurts, My stomach is upset. Can't go to work, I sleep all day, I blow my nose and fret. My ears are plugged,Can't hear a thing. I have no appetite. They say the worst s over now, And healing is in sight. Soon I'll be all better, And I'll be hail and strong. Just be patient, wait awhile. I hope I live that long.

Anyone who's ever had a bad cold will relate to this, Judy. I know I shouldn't laugh at another's illness, but I did have to giggle. Hope you're not really down with a bug now. Sending a Soup mail. Great work! Hugs, Carolyn
