Everything is blooming in Dallas, including my nose! The dust is blowing in from Canada and mingling with the rain-soaked mold, mildew and budding flowers - to all of which I have acquired allergic reactions. I don't know why I haven't lost a significant amount of weight just from blowing my nose over the last two days.
I never used to be allergic to anything - except wool (itchy, itchy) - but now spring brings a new period of first, drippy nose, multiple sneezing and watery eyes. This is followed by a couple (I hope only a couple) of nights of waking up to uncontrolled coughing.
Remedies include bourbon, honey, lemon in hot water, Nyquil, Sudafed (the good kind you have to sign for), hot salty water to gargle, hot tea with lemon, Hall's lemon cough drops, lemon drops and my new cure - Lemoncello (sort of a liquid lemon drop with vodka).
I'm counting on a good night's sleep tonight!
Pandemics and time away and stuff.

Certainly mixing the bourbon, Nyquil and lemoncello would produce a good night's rest. And maybe a headache.
I am off to take some nyquil right now... wish I had the lemoncello thing, that sounds good!
