One of the great things about social media is you can easily see what illnesses are spreading in your area. The past week or so, I have seen countless updates about a stomach bug here in Florida. A couple of weeks a go, a nasty cold virus swept through our house twice.
Cold weather (well not today because Florida weather is bipolar) and heated air are a breeding ground for all sorts of nasty bugs.
Five Tips for Staying Healthy During Flu Season Great tips for preventing the flu or cold.
DIY Disinfectant Dusting Spray A dusting spray that is also a disinfectant? I may be whipping up a batch this weekend.
Homemade Vicks VapoRub VapoRub is a must have when sick. I will be trying this recipe soon. Homemade is almost always better.
Day by Day Bite by Bite Health Series A healthy body can fight off viruses much more effectively.
A game plan for getting more rest — not getting enough sleep lowers your bodies ability to fight off viruses and bacteria.
Parenting to motivate your kids — Staying healthy and germ free is a family affair. I am working towards motivating my kids to work with me rather than constantly nagging. I may have to check out this book after reading this great review.
My thanks to our featured bloggers for linking up last week!

Thank you so much for the feature! I’ve also been down with a cold this last week and a half. Good news is that we can finally see something greenish, poking through the melting snow. I forget what it’s called though since I haven’s seen it since November……
