Time of the year for sickness and eating.

Fall Sickness and over eating It has been one heck of a month for me. It started out fine enough with a little sickness that was not keeping me down. It was the common cold feeling for the first week of the month. It is now the last week of the month and the family has been sick for the whole month.
