SHE SAID......I HAVE BEEN INFECTED



Dawn Boyle


As per Wikipedia.....

The common cold (also known as nasopharyngitis, rhinopharyngitis, acute coryza, or a cold) is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory system which affects primarily the nose. Symptoms include a cough, sore throat, runny nose, and fever which usually resolve in seven to ten days, with some symptoms lasting up to three weeks. Well over 200 viruses are implicated in the cause of the common cold; the rhinoviruses are the most common.

Limbs were down, rumor of a possible tree around the block, per the rumor mill in my house aka, my kids. My backyard patio furniture was scattered around like it was intentionally thrown in every direction. Wait rewind....why in the middle of January is the furniture still out? Wasn't it put away for Hurricane Irene??? I will have to get to the bottom of that with my husband....I mean, I have been told that I am in charge of keeping up the inside of the house because he tends to the outside...I guess it must be stressful writing out that check to Leo's Landscaping...hmmm. Anyway back to my story. As I attempted to secure the full glass doors that were slamming against the sides of my house I felt it...
