Darning socks may keep your mind off those troubles. A Pharmacist told me once no amount of cough syrup helps so he suggested to drink plenty of water even if it's an age-old remedy.<br /><br /><a href="http://ushealthworksca.livejournal.com/8440.html" rel="nofollow">Leonardo @ U.S. HealthWorks Medical Group</a>Leonardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11489867691820225671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518483258174186283.post-21467613644947212092016-04-04T00:24:11.710-04:002016-04-04T00:24:11.710-04:00I am so behind reading blogs - I hope you are feel...I am so behind reading blogs - I hope you are feeling a bit better by now.

I had severe bronchitis in the fall and it took 3 dr visits, high powered meds and added breathing treatments to get me over it. They warned me the cough would hang on the longest and it was spot on. 6 weeks at least. Just takes a while for the lungs to clear out. And I love the scrappy socks you are doing. I do have a question: when you are using multiple leftover yarns, how do you join the ends throughout the socks? I'm knitting a triangle shawl now and have that issue. Just wondering how others do it. Your socks really do ROCK!

It is no fun I know. Your Frankensocks are fabulous. All those Fabel yarn socks look wonderful together too. I am making room in my drawer for leftover pieces of my socks, but it will be a long time before there is enough for a pair. Hope you have a wonderful Easter with your family.

I had it about a month ago and you are so right - it feels like the insides are being coughed up. <br />Are the first pair of socks made from scraps of previous socks?
