Did you decorate your place for the holidays?

[Akuyi]

Yeah but I spent most of the time at my parents place and they are way better at decorating than me. XD

[Gingerale]

That must have been fun to go home to!

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Hope you have a lovely last day of 2018!

[Akuyi]

It was more of a test of will. I had invited a friend over for Silvester but then my throat was hurting a LOT and I would have preferred to just to to bed at 6pm. But that would have been rather rude to my guest. So I stayed awake.

And the challenge continued today cause I had to go to work!

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I had to work with a very sore, dry throat thru the holidays and that was not fun. Hope you get better soon...warm salt water rinses...salt helps like a natural antibiotic.

[Akuyi]

Good to know. I still have some salt candies.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

If you just have a sore throat it is probably viral but if you have a fever and get dark green goobers then it may have turned bacterial and in that case you may need antibiotics. A low grade fever is common for viral but not a high fever for days...that could be strep. I feel for you...hope it does not last long for you!

Drink warm herbal tea to soothe the throat, and sips of water throughout the day.

[Watery Star]

Hope you both get well soon.
I woke up with a dry mouth because my nose was all stuffed up.

[galled]

Oh, I hate that! The first swallow in the morning is like swallowing glass!

[Watery Star]

And then my nose starts running and I want to sleep some more. XP
