Ena, I would do away with our TV if I could, but I find I spend less and less time watching TV than ever before. With Starchoice, we select the stations that we actually watch, like the Dachshunds Channel, Discover Dachshunds, Deja Dachshunds, and CNN's 24 hour Dachshund Report.
That's what I get for having Express Vu. We don't get any of the good channels... I'm surprised with those channels the doxies even let you turn the TV off.
Glad to hear that people are getting some needed sleep.
Carex - by the time I was six months pregnant with the twins - I was so big that strangers thought I was overdue. I looked like a 5 ft pineapple with legs and arms. I could literally and safely put a dinner plate on my tummy. They teased me that my stomach entered a room first and the rest of me followed.
I can laugh now but..................
Bhil, when my brother-in-law was a VP for Shaw Communications and StarChoice, we were given the dish and a couple of receivers, but we have to pay for the various channels we watch. I don't watch these speciality channels, in that I would rather watch the Discovery Channel, the History Channel and Deja Vue instead. Most of my TV viewing is actually CBC news.

Sinc, some Cold FX or Echinacea would be helpful. Or, this might be a job for the Doxie Emergency Team. Chicken soup shall be at your doorstep by 9AM your time.

Dr. G., I will rely on the soup as many over the counter fixes conflict with my heart meds. There are very few things I can take on the advice of my doctor, one of them being Cold FX, not to mention Echinacea.
One form of Benylen is OK and the wife being a nurse knows what I can and can't take.

Sinc, we have some soup enroute to you as you read this. Look outside your front door at 9AM your time to see the adult doxies ready to deliver your Jewish chicken soup and other goodies to help bring you back to health.

Sinc, one measure of rye whiskey, one measure of hot water, one-third measure of honey - mix well. Add more rye whiskey to taste. Drink while snuggling with a doxie or a nurse or a hot water bottle (whichever is handy).
There will be little change in your cold symptoms but you will no longer care. An added bonus, after you had enough colds, you can meet all those new friends at the AA meetings
I'm touching wood. I haven't had a cold for a long time. I can't drink the whiskey, and can't take most of the cold stuff either - it messes up my mind - not a pretty sight!
On the home front, I'm progressing in my list making toward a new year and new life.
