That works? I get cold sores .. damn things.  So how often do we do this?  

Yes it works - been using that method for as long as I can remember. The tea can stay in the fridge for days, and you can use it as much as you want until the cold sore heals. I haven’t had one for awhile, but this remedy works quickly if I remember correctly - like days or less. All depends on how bad the cold sore is.

Well, next time I'll give it a try. Thanks for sharing, Reader.

You’re welcome. It should help.

I don’t know where it started from but, my dad used it, so it was probably a home remedy from his days growing up on a farm when running to the store wasn’t exactly an option. 

Edit: It’s the tannic acid , which is an astringent that has antiviral properties that makes this method work.

Reminds me of this meme... "I rather sleep like a cat."

We do sleep more like cats, I suppose. Lol! The new bed is very comfy.

Morning, all. I've had a few days with less Internet. How's everyone doing?

[kbois]

Good morning everyone!

Well yesterday I  was in a pretty good mood. I only reverted to being angry once when some idiot cut me off. A few well chosen swear words got me over that quickly.

Today I  hope I can brighten @mollyhousemouse 's day. 

Molly, I have to admit that your tag name is at odds with my mental picture of you. Other than a quietness and maybe a little shyness, I  don't picture you as a mouse at all. 

If anything I see you as being like a Golden Retriever. 

Smart. Loyal. Happy. Beautiful. (And just a little goofy. Let's face it, moms have to be a little goofy, it's either our kids making us that way or a coping mechanism 🙂)

That is what I see when I  think of you. 

I hope you have a good day!

 

[rickproehl]

Excuse me Good Sirs and DiC friends.

Good Monday Morning 

i hope your day is positive and productive.

How is your day going

[Mikiesboy]

Nothing too serious today ... maybe a smile for this Monday morning... Have a good day.

It does, because I tried and I tried, but I couldn’t get it. In fact, I think my attempts at the proper pronunciation got worse the more I tried.

The struggle is real. If you want a good chuckle:

I grew up in Mass. The state has some really effed up pronunciations.

My brother lives there, so I’ve been to MA several times. Have to say, not one city/town I visited during my trips down there gave me pronunciation issues. Just lucky, I guess...
