Jilli, whenever you wander by, I have to thank you for the recommendation of the mushroom complex supplement for immunity. I've been taking it for 2 months...and also haven't had a cold for 2 months. Now, correlation is not causation; I know that well.
That said, I was pretty much sick with some sort of respiratory nastiness starting at the end of October right on through late December, when it became The Pleurisy, and eventually got better in January...only to be followed by a cold Valentine's Day weekend. So I was sick basically from the end of October to late February, with a small reprieve in January.
But I started taking the mushroom complex in mid-February, and other than a few days where I felt like I might be fighting something, I have been fairly dang healthy (migraines notwithstanding.)
I'm going to take it for another 2 months (because 1 bottle lasts for 2 months) and then re-evaluate how I feel. At that point I may stop taking it until the fall.
Utterly unrelatedly, how funky is the house we're staying in for vacation this year? [link] We are going to be SO easy to spot from the beach!
Hmm. Can you repeat the name of the mushroom supplement, please?
Taxes are done and e-filed. Getting refund. Yay.
Nora, gmail or yahoo? Will check again in the morning.
I am melatonin, three prunes, and my nighttime vitamins.
gmail. Let me know if you don't see it, and I'll resend. They were local job boards I thought you might be interested in.
We filed our taxes. Didn't pay them, but we filed them. That's a start, right?
Hmm. Can you repeat the name of the mushroom supplement, please?
It's Fungi Perfecti Host Defense MyCommunity (I kept reading the name as "My" [space] "Community," and I'm sure that's one way to read it, but suddenly one day I realized it was also "Myco" [as in mushroom] "Mmunity" [as in immunity]. It just made me giggle, since I'm such a wordnerd.)
That link is to VitaCost, which is a site I like very much (also the best price on Mycommunity due to the free shipping), but other sites have it as well. Amazon's is about $1.50 less, and I believe it does qualify for Super Saver shipping with them (which, I guess, would actually make *Amazon's* price the best, duh). I just tend to use VitaCost for my supplements as well as a handful of gluten-free staples like a specific pasta I love and gluten-free flour.
t edit
According to my brother, who has a fairly respectable background in medicinal foods, when taking a mushroom supplement, it's important to make sure to drink enough water, since it can dehydrate you. I can't find any confirmation to that claim, but it never hurts to be hydrated.

Whoo, x-post with Teppy!
Teppy, I'm glad it seems to have helped! I've been making sure to take it lately, because Pete has been down with a cold which I REALLY do not have time for right now.
I might be willing to say, "I am Cheeseburger" if it would get me one, but "I am Rainbow"? Um, you are Piss Off.
The dishes are all affirmations like "I Am Effervescent" and "I Am Radiant" and "I Am Beautiful."
Oh, lord. I don't think I could be serious at that restaurant.
I WOULD, however, like to take a bunch of therapist friends I know there, after a shitload of margaritas...
