Allergies Anyone?

Friday, June 06, 2008 by Bethany

It's either the drippy nose, consecutive sneezes (upwards of 6), or the itchy eyes that gave it away tonight--regardless, my allergies are back. And I'm not loving any bit of it. The sneezing and constant snot is one thing, and likely the only thing I could deal with, but the itchy eyes? Killing. Me. Once you rub them, you can't stop. And then the itch gets progressively worse.

Godspeed and Claritin should help. Key operative word SHOULD. Let's give it a half hour of will power to kick in, and maybe a bit of sleep and by tomorrow I might be a bit less cranky with this weather. I mean, what happened? It went from beautiful 70 degrees and breeze to rain. And more rain. And then the tornado watch. And then rain again. And then to some muggy breezy weather. But I could deal with it. The breeze made it tolerable. And sorta nice at about 9pm tonight.

That is until the dog started barking at some non-existent noise. Which woke the baby. Which triggered the sneezes. Snot. Nose blowing. And then of course the eyes.

Geeze... this is sounding almost like a kid's nursery rhyme... the one about the woman swallowing a fly. Only make it an allergy thing (sorry, my humor is not always so funny. If you are outside my head).

Anyway, allergies are in full force. Head a bit stuffy and out of sorts. And this can mean a couple of things--great writing to come (yes a stuffy head sometimes lets me focus on writing instead of everything else. It's something to do with drowning out the other nonsense) or a fun few days of single-parenting and counting the minutes until The Husband comes bounding through the door.
