This post comes to you courtesy of Fireball cinnamon whiskey.
I almost didn’t write a What’s Working for me Wednesday post because I developed a sore throat rather suddenly today. This is not just a sore throat either. It’s extreme pain and affecting my right ear as well.I cannot get an appointment at the local medical centre until 12:45pm on Friday.
I forced down about 6 spoonfuls of homemade chicken and leek soup then had to give up. It was far too painful to continue. I’m not worried about this factor. I embrace every opportunity to forgo food because it’s not very often that I do. Oh man, I’m in pain.
Thank goodness I had a brand new bottle of Fireball on the shelf. If you have not had the chance to try this fine alcohol from Canada, I urge you to do so. I’ve had 4 small shots so far this evening. Purely for medicinal reasons, I assure you. The following photos tell a story but please do not think it’s the whiskey making me wince and grimace; it’s the pain from swallowing anything. Believe you me, I feel much better since partaking in the shots. And it won’t stop at 4. I will go on…….
Fireball is what is working for me this Wednesday!!

Up and running around the dining room…yes in my jammies!
Please help me…

Why do I have so much saliva to swallow?
Going back for round 2
So, what’s working for you this Wednesday? Ummmm, excuse me I have, ummmm things to shoot, I mean drink do. I have important things to do.

I really hope you feel better soon, but in the meantime, medicinal whisky is allowed. Bye the way – actually getting a post up here today is real dedication to your craft 🙂

Turns out it’s tonsillitis!!! I spent all morning at the medical centre and am now on dreaded anti-biotics!! I feel like crap and have just now found the energy to check emails (it’s after 5pm).

I have the same issue. Nothing works but my co workers said to try Fireball. Your post will give me the strength to hammer some down. I need relief. Andrew Long Beach, CA

Hi Andrew!
The fireball was a fun test but I did have to go on anti-biotics for severe tonsillitis! Fireball is great though…in moderation, of course! Thanks for stopping by Kai Chronicles.
