Nighttime is always the hardest when you have a cold or the flu. I currently have a head cold which thankfully is starting to weaken. Still, I spent the weekend tossing blankets on and off. Mimi completely lost patience with me and decided to sleep next to Harry for a change. Even with three pillows, I had problems breathing and kept waking up snorfling and sneezing.
But I realized that I wasn't using all of the tools at my disposal. Last night, I took an Advil cold and sinus caplet (I love me some ibuprofen but taking it on its own for more than a couple of days upsets my stomach) then leisurely drank a pinky finger of whiskey on a couple of ice cubes while finishing up homework.
I slept like a baby.

I'm sure your cold remedy is written in some fine Southern lady's book of medicinal remedies. Of course there'd be no mention of the pill, just the whiskey in a more copious amount. Glad you got some rest and I'm sure Mimi is happy, too.
Take care!
