Is it just me?

I am fighting another cold. Just what is it about this climate that continues to make me sick! Why is it that my husband never gets sick. We eat the same thing, we smell the same air, we live in the same environment, yet only I get sick. He seems to always be healthy. Why I can't remember the last time he had a cold, if ever! So, is it me? or can I blame someone else? I must be a very fragile individual.  Yes...that's it.. I am fragile. I need coddling and loving and care and am not getting it. Oh, I can't really say that because it is not true. I have lots of love and attention. Lots of family and friends and I know they all care for me - in different ways. So, I guess it is me. What can I do to make myself better? Exercise you say? Well, I have tried that but I am not too good at doing that regularly but surely that can't be the only solution. I eat well enough. Maybe a few too many calories now and then but not enough to make me sick. Perhaps I am just fertile ground for bugs. Once they get you....they never let you go. I found I was not sick in Hawaii. Could that be my answer?! Yes, move to Hawaii where the weather is warm. Alas, that is not to be. I have just too much to do here. Oh, perhaps that is the answer. Too much to do. What constitutes 'too much'? My hubby is out all the time doing stuff and he is not sick. I, on the other hand, am out as well....I am thinking this is one of those 'unanswerable questions'. I definitely needed to 'get it off my chest' as I woke again this morning with coughing, sneezing, and flem to spare! As the morning has passed, I find myself feeling a bit better.  Something like the old song about the boy going to summer camp...'wait a minute....it's stopped raining....guys are swimming....guys are sailing...playing baseball....gee that's better....mother, father, kindly disregard this letter!  Ditto!
