The life of an OCP librarian

As a general rule, I don’t get sick. And, my husband hasn’t gotten too sick in recent years either. But, apparently having a baby changes all that! With maybe a day or two exception, at least one member of my extended family has been sick for about 6 weeks or so now, which has required lots of schedule juggling, medicines, vitamins, herbs, and homeopathic remedies. In the process of trying to figure out what remedies will help to cure each ailment, I have discovered a new OCP trait I possess. I like to know exactly which remedy(ies) will solve a problem and take that and only that. My husband, on the other hand opens up the herb cabinet, takes everything he can find, and then waits to see what happens. His Mom has a similar philosophy. I suppose there is nothing wrong with either choice–it’s just yet another way I happen to be different!
