It seems I’m not really still ill from my cold, just suffering from godawful hayfever. This has been a wildly successful spring for many flowing plants (the tulips are doing particularly well this year), but the result, while pleasant on the eye, is awful on the sinuses. I’ve been coughing and snorting such that I’m surprised WHO hasn’t tackled me, Monsters, Inc. style, and locked me away in isolation.
Ah, well — if it weren’t keeping Margie up at nights, I wouldn’t worry as much about it. As it is, I’ll probably get introduced into the joy of BreathRite strips tonight. Wonderful.
Tell me about it. Florida is even worse: the growing season never ends. I can’t live without my antihistamines.
Well this is a worse attack of hayfever than I’ve had in quite some time. I’ve been snorting Beconase like crazy.
Honey, locally produced honey. Rice’s (from Greeley) does fine. About three tablespoons a day for a fast start, one per day to maintain. Use a squeeze bottle and you can bypass most of your taste buds. (It gets old.) Cut my allergies, which used to be vile, by 90-95% and my allergy medicine intake (aside from the honey) by 99%.
“Oh, honey …?”
