Topic: RE: everybody ok? Great Christmas Flood 2009
Good morning and Merry Christmas!

Wow, what a mess yesterday was. We weren't sure we'd be able to get out of our neighborhood, so  Gary took off in the truck to scope things out. He found a route to get us passed all of the mess on I-30.
The kids  couldn't get to the kennel near our house where they were boarding their dogs, so an emergency plan had to go into effect there. FINALLY we got out and headed to Nashville for our get  away weekend. The roads were horrible, the rain hardly ever let up, and our 5 hour trip took us 6 1/2 hours.

BUT, here we are, in bed at the Sheraton Nashville, drinking  a Buck's latte and enjoying the morning. We're headed to Opry Grand Hotel for the day, then bundling up like the Michelin Tire Man for the San Diego Charger/ TN Titan game. What fun!!!!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday.

Topic: everybody ok? Great Christmas Flood 2009
Everybody okay?

I have seen reports that they are now calling this the Great Christmas Flood of 2009. 

It finally stopped raining here earlier today (actually yesterday now since it's past 12 am - so it's technically Chritmas Day).  Now it is lightly snowing outside - just enough to dust the ground.

I can't tell what the radar says is coming - more snow/rain/mix or just cold front. 

We lost power for a few minutes a few times throughout the day, but it's on now. 

I didn't leave the house today, but I've seen pictures of how bad some of the flooding is and heard about it from my family members who tried to go to Little Rock today. 

We were going to go to Texarkana tomorrow to see hubby's granny - but I know they are advising everyone to stay in their homes until things dry up some more.  So who knows what we'll do. 

In any event, we're okay here.  How about everyone else?

Edited to add:

PS  Merry Christmas.

Topic: RE: Thrush
I know that when my kids were babies they got Thrush, if you ask the pharmacy to sell you a bottle of Gentian Violet, it is cheap but messy, you have to dip a qtip in it and rub it all in your mouth and it will stain it purple but it works

No remedies here.  I've never had it or known anyone in my family that has to ask.  Sorry.

I just stopped in to say that I hope you feel better soon.

Yogurt, lots and lots of it. Make sure it has active cultures in it, though. Hope it gets better soon.

Topic: Thrush
My OB called me in diflucan and I took it yesterday, been gargling with sal****er, and perxide/water.  Nothing is helping, and I can't stand this pain!  My tongue is swelling, stings and hurts to eat.  Anyone got any home remedies I can try?  It's really hard to eat right now, it hurts
