In Greek it is the last, or the end.

In wolves it is bottom of the pack - opposite alpha.

In other words, I guess, the doormat. On second thoughts she was nothing like me at all, complete opposite in fact .

Thanks everyone for your efforts!

This may not be the right thread, but I have a question.

Is it "Starve a cold and feed a fever" or "Feed a cold and starve a fever"?

TIA

Starve a fever, feed a cold.

For you? Feel better soon!

If I lived near you I'd make you some of my super duper special chicken soup. It always cures what ails you. My kids call me to make it for them when they are sick. Sometime I think they're tricking me though.

I hope you feel better soon. I know I'm tired of this cold that won't go away and it seems you've been feeling it for a while too. I think we could both use a good batch of soup.

I keep telling my DH that all I need is a good hour long massage and my congestion would break up and I'd be a whole new woman. He's not buying it. RB. lol

Mine wouldn't do that much. I did try to get the boy to make me home made soup. He put the chicken in the pot with the seasonings and turned it on to cook and forgot about it. I had fallen asleep. It was so burned we had to throw the pot away. Sometimes I wonder if they do that stuff on purpose so I won't ask them to do it again. I think next time I make some I will freeze a bunch so I will have it.

I think the massage is an excellent idea. Can he be bribed?

Believe me, I tried. What do you think that "whole new woman" crap meant?

I remember you talking about him burning the pot. I also remember someone eating your can of soup. I love having sons...don't you? Bless their hearts.

Ooooh...gotcha. I had to work today and then came home to a couple extra babies who were hungry and wanting attention. I had my hair done by a three year old stylist and then had to go back out to the store to buy toilet paper because we were out for some reason and it was -30 degrees when I went. I am tired needless to say so I didn't pick up on that real quick like I shoulda. Maybe you could try a different bribe. Mine does not do massages so I just pay someone when I want one.

Uh...yeah...sure. I have five if someone wants one who didn't get one (sons, that is). You know me...always willing to share.

Only the truth. How about one of these? I think all their wives/girlfriends would agree at the moment.



This is 2, 3 and 4 of 5. Trust me ... they have not been assimilated.

WOW, my family always said it is Feed a Fever and Starve a Cold, which I remember from the FF. It was to burn itself out by hot soup, tea, bundle under quilts, etc... I was raised under watchful care by grandma types who made me a hardier child than today's crop of allergy riddled kids who get tubes in their ears, not allowed outdoors much to fully develop immune systems. My cousin has two lovely granddaus both born 2005. The healthy one is on the go, the sickly one has worried parents who keep her away from fresh air and she's balky about being over protected now.

My motto is feed everything if you are hungry and get lots of sleep.

What Sea said. Bee, it's a fallacy to feed one and starve the other. What you need to do is get rest, drink lots of liquids, and eat enough to fight off whatever ails you.

I think it actually goes; feed a cold '(in order to)' starve a fever...
At least that's what we were taught at our nutrition class.

btw, those boys are adorable!

Beek get yourself some gatorade too and start downing that. It builds up your electrlytes. Also take some Tylenol every 4hrs. Rub yourself down with some Vicks. And if none of that works get some castor oil to clean yourself and the nasties out.
