Being Sick is no fun!

So being sick is no fun for me as i am sure it is for no one!!! this is unlike me and i am going for another follow up on monday afternoon. i do hope to make it and not sit in urgent care over the weekend. im looking forward to church tomorrow, afternoon softball practice for my daughter and birthday party for my son. i can't wait to relish in some reading, blogging and pinning while waiting. so my sweet and caring husband made me a home remedy for my coughing spell last night; i know his heart was in the right right place but he nearly sent me to the ER. anyone have any home remedies that help with coughing and congestion? honey lemon and a shot of clear expensive stuff was not good for me. im sure under other circumstances that may have been fun...but not lately.
