gavisk - 2010-01-21 2:55 PM You new bike owners are making some of us REAL jealous. I'm scheming in ways I'm quite sure my wife would not appreciate (e.g., sell some climbing gear. Sell the scooter. Sell the cat. Sell plasma. Even, God forbid, sell one of my other bikes!).

Trin2bfast - 2010-01-21 1:46 PM Ha Ha... Emma, been there and lived off of that...  case of Top Raman, several cans of speghetti O's, and PB&J!  Gotta do, what ya gotta do!  (oh yeah... and beer!)  that always seem to find its way into the limited budget...it served two purposes (liquid bread (food group) & hydration....well kinda!)

gavisk - 2010-01-21 2:30 PM Also, Emma, I've been meaning to ask what you study at Clemson. I have some good friends who teach in the Math Dept. there.

jezzieswims - 2010-01-21 9:54 PM Wow ... bike porn and trash talk in the same day ... I wish wasn't out all day.

Training volume is getting back up there and I'm working through the cough.

I've got a chesty cough (insert jokes and comments here) but want to get in the pool. Any advice about swimming with a cough? Should I hold out until I get the coughing under control? I'd rather not drown and I usually stay out of the water when I have a cough but this thing has been around forever.

I love the trash talk going on.... good times.

You will all be happy to know Keri is in a much better mood, the pitty party is OVER.  I don't usually take curves that hard but it just seemed like a lot was going on at once.  Anyway.... the girls and I had a great time at a literature based homeschool coop today then off to HEB/Central Market before a picnic in this perfect weather!  Gotta love it! 

I'm starting to wonder if I could pull off the Gateway Oly.  I mean if JP can do it   Maybe, just maybe I could pull it off.  It's a thought.  Are they still planning on taking people off shore and kicking them off the boat to start?

bzgl40 - 2010-01-22 7:27 AM Personally I would stay out of the pool if I was sick.  I don't know if it is the clorine or what but it aggrivates anything I have so I just wait it out instead of making it worse and being out even longer.  Have you been to the dr about your cough?  Normally I wouldn't say that but if it isn't going away might not be a simple thing and you might need meds.

Newtons1st - 2010-01-21 9:26 PM With strategic attire he might not have even noticed the bike. Nice plan!!

Houstonrider - 2010-01-21 10:22 PM We left that for the resident pervert...... YOU!!!!!!!

In regards to Gateway...... if you do the OLY I will personally change my schedule to make sure I ride the bike route with you to make sure you ARE ready. Kemah is right in my backyard.

Can you tell I have a date with my wife tonight?   5 kids means it doesn't happen often.

5Hr energy + dinner @ McCormick & Schmick's + movie +

When are you coughing?  Last fall I had a cough but I didn't cough at all when I was exercising, I'd start coughing when I stopped.  If you are coughing during exercise it's not worth it.

Are you taking something for the cough?

I'm likely the resident crunchy Mama here - other than some poison Ken occasionally insists on bringing in the house we practice homeopathy.
Some things to consider looking into - Emergen'C - this will boost your immune system and is great for you, I swear by this stuff.  Elderberry Extract Syrup with zinc - also an immune booster and great for a cough.  We also take probiotics when not feeling 100% - my favorite brand for adults is Pearl, they are tiny and easy to take and come in packaging similar to sinus meds.  All of this can be found at Whole Foods, Trader Joes or Vitamin Shoppe.

We try not to use cough suppressants during the day as getting out what the cough is trying to get out is important.  When we supress things like cough and fever they tend to last longer.  We save cough suppressants for night time when the cough is keeping us up and keeping us from sleep.

I hope you feel better soon.  A bad cough can be so exhausting and such a pain in the butt.
