Dave:  What did Kathi's doctor have to say about her extended cough?? She should have gone in sooner would be my first guess!  Hope she can get something that will work and give some better relief.  


Serbs make up a drink that usually works. 

Put some cane sugar in the bottom of a sturdy deep pot. Turn on the heat and stir. 

Soon it will start to melt and turn brownish. 

That's when you take some Plum Brandy and pour it slowly over the brown sugar.

It will crackle and after stirring for awhile it will melt.

You can sprinkle some fresh Lemon Rind in the mixture, but just a tad. 

Sip on that and let it run down your throat as you drink it. Rewarm if it gets cold.

Jumping in bed under the covers and sweating it out helps the cough, cold and any aches.


They make this same Traditional Drink at Serbian X-mas and pass it around as folks walk in your door for the celebration. Mellows folks out a tad. Ha Ha.



CHILLY here at 1:30 A.M.  I opened the back door to the deck and only my head went out. It was 68F with a 53 WIND CHILL.  It's been overly windy all day and evening.


The Concert for the Old Michigan Central Station was really good. I'm not one that loved all of the new style music, but some of the groups were fantastic. Eminem but the program together as far as getting all the big starts like Diana Ross @ 80 yrs old to come out in front of 50,000 people on a really high stage. She looked and sang great. The woman still has it together. Even a few things to make the crowd laugh. Kudo's to her.


Jack Henry put all his effort into doing a great job.


And there were others..... I just don't know them by name or song.  :emoticon 0122 itwasntme:

Eminem came out with his latest album song. Don't ask me what he was saying, but I heard the word DETROIT in it a lot of times.  He's originally from Detroit. Lived here with his wife and kids and then they split and she stayed in the house right down the street in a gated area from a choir member. 


Seems like everyone standing was jumping up and down and singing along and having a RIP ROARING TIME. 


I have a few pictures, but they don't seem to transfer from the iPhone to the Laptop for some reason.


Out of here for now or I'll be bumping into Dave or Lee!  Ha Ha  Nite all.  Love the chill in the room with the window open. Not suppose to get much higher that 60-62 tomorrow.
