Even if you start taking them now, it'll probably keep it from becoming as bad as it would without them.

The new Secretary of Commerce has a moustache! Excellent!

I heard him speak today, and he was eloquent in his support of the President and his love of America. He is a great choice!

Hi all.. thanks for Dose Gretchen.. I am sure the daughters got a kick out of her hair do.. they apparently do NOT like her current hair style, calling it the "helmet"...

Dubya was with his daughters this year for their birthday. Last year he not only missed thanksgiving with his wife, daughters & parents , he also missed their 22nd birthday while he was with the GIs.. I am guessing the Men in Iraq would have enjoyed having Jenna & Barbara there with the president .. they would surely make sure the girls had a memorable birthday.

in case anyone missed the Fine Mind Thread yesterday on the Twin's birthday(lots of family pix as well as of girls):

HAPPY BIRTHDAY (23) JENNA & BARBARA BUSH~~28 Nov 04

I have not taken a vitamin since I was a child but I do not get more than one cold a year so I can't be doing to bad.

Mum OK settling in the home well IMHO, dad not too bad did you get my FR mail at the weekend.

**Thanksgiving was ok but I really dread Christmas. We all miss Jan so very much.**

MamaB...I'm sure Jan would have loved the lights, shiny bulbs and other Christmas decorations. By decorating..even just a little bit..you'd be remembering her joy in these merry things. What a gift that would be.

(((MamaB))) Hugs and prayer heavenward during this difficult time

**I think it's neat how PROUD the Pres. looks of whoever he nominates.**

He's a wise leader and I'm sure makes his choices very carefully. He's confident in his choice. :o)

I directed a couple of people who are interested in a regular dose of Barney photos to this thread. They were asking about a Barney ping list, and I don't think there is one. The dose is the best place to come for photos of the First Family and their terriers.

FR seems pretty slow tonight (and my computer is ALWAYS very slow) so I am posting to all of you together!!!

MamaB.. I agree with Mrs. T.. It is hard to go on sometimes when a vital part of your life is no longer there. but she really is there.. the love you share can never disappear. Her spirit will always be with you. always. You do know I hope how many folks here at the Dose think of you often & pray for you.

Snugs, I agree w/ homemom.. for me vitamin C, zinc, enchinea (however you spell it) help with colds. As we get older (ahem, sorry) we don't always knock things off like we used to.. and when we are under stress/tension the immune system get depressed & we get hit harder. You have had alot going on to wreck havoc on your immune system. You earned that cold!!! disgusting stuff that it is.

Will be in & out. this is really molasses. Like I hit reply button.. and I checked watch. 6 minutes for reply screen to reveal itself.
