Staghorn Sumac

Despite all of my boasting of not getting sick because of the healing elixir of Russian Tea, I got a cold on Monday. I'd heard that you have a cold six days: 2 days coming, 2 days staying, 2 days leaving. If that is the case I'm finally on the downhill side. Searched through my bathroom cabinet and found some cold medicine. It had been so long since I last got a cold the medicine had expired but I figured it was still potent enough to keep me from sneezing/snorting through work. A couple of capsules each morning and a box of Kleenex at home has been all I needed so far. Indy and Ori are always near me whenever I sit down. Maybe they sense I could use some sympathy (or my fever makes my lap comfortably warm?). Anyway, should be back to normal by next week.
