Best layed plans of mice and men

Well started the blog and promtly got sick. So now that I am back toward being on my feet I plan to blog.

However having the flu didnt let me off the hook on trying to be self sufficency. I did the home remidies and the worked as well as the over the counter meds on everything except the drainage.

I managed to save money by not going to the doc (had the flu before so know the symptoms), decided not to use the over the counter or pescription caugh meds. (broke down and baught 1 each day and nigh quil rip offs at the dollar store.) Used food I had stored including the hot pepper, ginger and other things I needed for home remidies.

Estemated savings aprox 1000.00 (sence I didnt have the money it isnt saving in the bank, but savings from being in dept that much just from the flu.)

Also I am an adult, if your kid is sick I recomend the doc sence this flu hits kids worse. and doc may have something to tell you. (I recomend anyone get any medical attention you think you need. )
