Coffee anyone ?

College is wrecking your poor immune system! Are you on 1000 iu of vitamin C a day? Hand sanitizer in the pockets? Non-antibacterial soap; anti bacterial soap kills the good bacteria on your skin that helps fight off germs.

I always say coffee, but I actually only drink Apple cider. Got the sanitizer in the backpack.

Plus a couple of multi vitamins, zinc and selenium.

I wish with those, but zinc got me sick a few years ago from not eating food soon enough with taking zinc.

Yes, obligatory You seem to be using that "S" word a lot lately. I hope you aren't burning your candle on both ends and in the middle. You'll never get better if you burn out.

I hope not, I feel like it has only been my two college horse shows that I have been sick around. There are a couple things going around here, and I think I am catching some of what goes around.

As I understand it, supposedly most college kids have health issues because of their diet. Not enough fruits and veggies... heavy on the prepackaged and highly preserved foods.



I have 1 kid in college, and his diet is great... but then he is odd.

30 minute wait to get oil changed in truck. I have no idea when it got changed last. Thought it might be a good idea.
Took me and neighbor Ron dang nigh all day to load trailer with used tin and lumber. I backed the truck up and made sure a generous amount went in my truck for Ron. I come to town to fill up, get oil change and a full order of the best onion rings in Texas! When I get back, Ron will help me hitch up the trailer. We’ll check and air up tires and I’ll be ready to leave out in the morning.

I was actually wondering about that one. But I actually would say that I do better then most. I actually eat at the cafeteria for 3 meals almost every day.

Is there healthy food at the cafeteria?

Good fresh salads? Fruits to choose from?

And do they have good food? WAY back when I was in college the cafeteria wasn't likely much different than chow at the army mess hall. Click forward 40+ years and the cafeterias at the DD's schools is GOOD STUFF! CHOICES, like LOTS of choices! Of course DD2 particularly is picky picky picky and didn't eat most of it. Her loss.

Things are ok on that, not the most impressive.

I would say that its mediocre, I have heard many other places have many more options and a better cafeteria, but I go to a medium sized school in a small town, so this is probably what we should expect.

Good morning y'all. Trailer is loaded and hitched, truck is full of fuel. No onion rings yesterday, I forgot they are closed on Mondays. When I got back home, neighbor Ron had mowed the yard for me! When it gets daylight, I'll feed/water/hay sheep and feed dogs. I'll be back tomorrow evening, so animals don't go hungry. Going to get some painting done!

Good morning. Been keeping busy too. Getting ready for winter, we had snow over the weekend. Going to grind some rabbit meat today, get it vaccum packed into the freezer. That's after school and riding lessons.

DD2's school was 1,200 ish in a city of 37,000. DD1 is at a school of 2,400ish in a town of 5,400.

No onion rings yesterday, I forgot they are closed on Mondays.

Very unfortunate, your taste buds were all dressed up and in the end had nowhere to go!
