Well THAT's good! (I think!) How are you feeling today? Are your sinuses all clear? No more rashes?
Maybe next month....not long at any rate.
Howdy Alice!
Please keep me!! :o)
I haven't been over here much this week because I had a lot of duties elsewhere on FR...next week should be lighter I'm thinking.
Stop by when you can. We know you have duties at the canteen, and for the troops.
What are you up to today? I'm splitting my attention among FR, the kids, and sending out press releases.....and recovering from the bat incident.
no more rashes, sinuses suck. That's why I couldn't go back to sleep at 2:30...I broke down and used some nose spray and it took forever for my sinuses to clear. And now they ache.
It's very cold outside, and I'm going to make some tea and dream about the shoreline at Key West.
I'll have to check and see how long it lasts. I haven't been to it since the '80's, when the Scottish Games were a part of it, but it still draws massive crowds.
Dat's where I was -- I didn't wanna say cause I didn't know if that was cool or not!!
I had the monday thread and helped with the Thursday one and I'm playing music on Friday night/Saturday! :o)
I am having sinus attack too -- yesterday it went from 72 degrees to to 45 degrees in about an hour...and kept dropping!
Don't worry, Star! Unless you request otherwise, once you are on my ping list, you're there to stay!
And it's OK if you aren't here "every day." We don't mark you Tardy or Absent!
*hugs*
LOL -- I like it's been forever since I caught up with you guys...
I've also been biting off my fingertips not to rip someone a new one all week. LOL There is someone who is going to be NAILED whenever I get the all clear from a friend!
I found that simple Ocean spray (saline solution) was excellent for my sinuses, and wasn't addictive, or had side effects.
Now, I seem to get sinus headaches when low fronts come in. Odd....
It was 15 at sunrise today.
But I've been in weather like you said before. I have had to go out and buy a sweatshirt or something because it came in during mid day and I forgot to check the weather and didn't bring in anything warmer.
I have been to the festival many times. They hold it here in Topanga Canyon, which is perfect for it.
It's VERY cool! El BUMP-0 to you and the canteen.
Sometimes the saline helps, and other times my sinuses are too swollen for it to do much good. That's what keeps me awake: blockage due to swollen sinuses or infected sinuses.
I seldom use the spray. I have bad rebound with it, and I am only using 1/2 the dose. Tonight I will have to take sudafed, I guess...and I need to remember to use the Flonase. It does help with the swelling.
They actually now have a Renaissance Village which is here all year round, but is overgrown during the Festival. I may try to go this year. Maybe. It will depend on whether I can find someone to tag along with me. Or not.
(I loved Topanga Canyon. It felt almost like "home.")
That's sucky. I hate that. My sinus infections got so bad at work (environmental disaster, that place) that I was put on Augmentin, and even that didn't help...*sigh*
Now, I seldom have problems. Even with allergies.
Augmentin gave me an allergy reaction just this side of anaphalactic shock...
I'm trying to decide if I need to go back to the dr. Probably know by Monday.
