Until I started reading your blog and Walt's I didn't know what it would be like to live in France. I had subscribed to other blogs in France. Nothing compares to your blog. Nothing. You have helped me "see" parts of France, feel like I am right there. Without my even asking you have covered an entire range of topics of life outside the States. I fully and completely appreciate every bit of your efforts in doing so. Love the pictures too! I seldom go to bed without first reading the days post on your blog.

Of course you feel better in the morning -- you've just spent however many hours doing nothing. It's all the mischief that you get up to during the day that saps your energy and intensifies the symptoms. I do hope you take it easy for the next few days and have a happy, happy holiday.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14017788096350527796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-45962817636969292292011-12-23T15:34:53.032+01:002011-12-23T15:34:53.032+01:00Here's to health coming on you soon.

You should only use it a few days, but it REALLY helps with the symptoms (and that seems, honestly, to end up helping shorten the cold itself).<br /><br />I hope your Christmas is a nice one!<br /><br />Merry Christmas to everyone else here :))<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-69958277447063707062011-12-23T15:15:24.004+01:002011-12-23T15:15:24.004+01:00I am 100% with Cheryl[Hi Cheryl!].

Usually, when I get a cold it's because I've flown to the U.S. or spent a day or two in Paris. But now I've had two since summer.

I have been taking advantage of being on vacation (since yesterday!) to catch up with blogs a bit.<br /><br />Speaking of "crud," did I ever tell you -- I probably did -- that I was sick pretty much all of the time during the winter when we lived in Tours? Apparently the area has the most ear, nose and throat problems in France.<br /><br />Of little consolation, but for your information!<br /><br />Merry Christmas!Betty Carlsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155852272383173880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-80295618156836182712011-12-23T09:25:48.576+01:002011-12-23T09:25:48.576+01:00We will miss you!
