Handwashing. It’s one of the most important things that you can do. So simple yet it’s something that I see so many adults fail to do. Remember to wash your hands with the following.
1. When using the restroom. Again, you would think this is something that would be automatically done but I can not count the number of times I leave a bathroom amazed at the adults who I watched leave without visiting the soap and water. Yuck!
2. Before eating. This will help prevent introducing germs, viruses, and bacteria into your body.
3. When sneezing. Common sense, right?
4. After caring for pets.
5. When they are visibly dirty.
6. Before cooking.
7. After taking out the trash or doing other household tasks.
8. Before and after taking care of a scrape or cut.
Again, these are just a few of the times when you need to scrub up. Remember to wash your hands by using soap and rubbing your hands together for at least 20 seconds. Usually this is how long it takes to sing the song “Happy Birthday” to yourself.

Oh my. I am just so stuffy today. I am sure it’s allergy related but it still doesn’t help me feel better. I am taking my medications, like a good patient, lol. I’m drinking a lot of hot tea to help and making sure I get plenty of fluids. It seems like warm compresses help me too so I’ve been doing that off an on as well.
I have thought about trying the nasal irrigation and have tried it a few times but haven’t really had a lot of success with that. I have when I wen tto the doctor’s and had it performed but the ones I’ve tried at home haven’t really worked.

The weather is cold, rainy, and dreary today. With the cooler temperatures and being indoors more, it seems that it is harder to keep everyone healthy. I know that the local schools have sent home a few flyers with information on some of the local bugs that are going around the classrooms.
Here are a few tips to keep everyone healthy.
1. Wash your hands. This seems simple, right? It is amazing though how often this is over looked. Wash before and after meals, after cleaning/playing with your pets, if you sneeze or cough, and if they obviously seem dirty. Now, of course there are more times when you need to wash your hands. These are just a few.
2. Get enough sleep and rest. With all of the multi-tasking we do, it is tempting to push rest to the bottom of the old to do list. But resist!
3. Exercise.
4. Have a balanced diet.
5. Sneeze into a tissue or into your arm. The same goes for coughing. Remember to cover. And remind others to do the same.
6. Stay home if you’re ill. Again, sounds easy enough, right?
I hope these few tips have been helpful to you. Stay healthy everyone!
