Thaks for all the tips gang...I have been going over in my mind, things I might have eaten, different from what BigDom ate, and I can think of nothing at all...Usually when I cook his dinner, I just save my portion for later on in the evening, but store it in the fridge...

I think the only thing that I have eaten differently from him, was I ate the last of the cherries, but they were perfectly fine, or so it seemed...I never heard of cherries making anyone sick like this...

So am just giving the old stomach a rest, and other than fluids, I am not going to ingest anything until Sunday...just plenty of various fluids, and taking my meds, and hopefully, whatever this is will just clear up....

I remember a few years back, while still working in the nursing homes, we had a terrible outbreak of flu...it was so odd, because most of the residents received the flu shots, and fully 90 percent of the more thasn 150 residents, came down with massive diarrhea(ugh, such an unpleasant subject)...I will never forget that, as the residents were all so ill, that most of the workers hardly had time to even take lunch time or breaks....

Thankfully, every resident recovered, which was surprising, because bad flu in the senior population, is really a killer...but all the residents recovered in a day or two, and that flu seemed to go through the whole nursing home, wing by wing and then went straight out the door...

And then the workers, nurses, aids, houskeepping, etc, started to come down with it....

I know its not the flu season at all, but somewhere, somehow, I think I was exposed to something...the only thing I can think of is the postal service(Yikes, the hubbys employer)....I say this because, we get lots and lots of postal deliveries, what with my ebay purchases, and the hubby himself does well in his orders from various places...

I did notice the other day, that we had a new postal delivery person, who took some rather long time, figuring out our address from the road where he drives his postal truck....(our house numbers are somewhat hidden by the out of control Rhodie bush).....

Our regular postal guy has been out for a few days, so I asked this new guy whats up?...He said he did not have the particulars on our regular guy, but just that he was sick and had been out of work for a few days...so maybe he had something, and being as he and I have had some package and mail exchanges lately, perhaps I caught something from him....thats really all I can think of....

In any case, I aim to be well and back to normal, with a few days rest...after all, I cannot give up my festivities of pub and restaurant hopping, beer tasting, and chair breaking....
