I didn’t have to watch the allergy report on the news this morning. My nose informed me moments after my eyes opened … there’s something in the air. I have been sneezing my brains out all day. It’s mold spores, of course. My nose, it hates the mold spores like nothing else.

Now on the one hand, the fact my sinuses and lungs are open enough to react to something in the air enough to cause sneezing is a good thing, considering I had quite a little infection going on in my nasal passages last week. Also, the sneezing and coughing is a good thing right now, because it’s helping clear out the last of that gunk. On the other hand, having just had a sinus infection and my immune system taking a beating for it, I am in a bad position right now. It wouldn’t take much for the infection, which I doubt is 100% cleared up yet, to flare up again. I won’t be able to kick it by myself a second time so soon without seeing a doctor. So I’ll be spraying things up my nose and taking pills and keeping my fingers crossed. As long as I am still sneezing, it’s all good. When I stop sneezing, because I can’t freaking sneeze, that’s when the problems start.

I actually feel pretty good today. Not great. Still not 100% at all, but pretty damn good. It feels good to feel good!

Since I am nattering on about my health, I might as well give you an update on my poor busted toe. It’s getting better! I have continued to do physical therapy on it to try to regain full movement, and it seems to be working. Stretching, flexing, bending, and making the poor thing work out against its will sucks, as any physical therapy after an injury does. It hurts. Thank goodness it’s just a toe. I can work it until it bothers me, and then I can put on shoes and ignore it. But it’s coming along, which makes me happy. I have always had really flexible and agile toes, and while it would be easier and less annoying to just let the thing heal however it wants to heal, even if that means it gets stiff and non-flexible, I’ve discovered that if one toe on my foot won’t bend, none of them will. Very strange, and I won’t have it. I like using my monkey feet to pick things up off the floor. Saves my poor back.

And other than that, I don’t have anything to report. I’m a little low energy today, and I don’t seem to be getting much of anything done. To be honest, there isn’t much to get done, though you know there’s always some housework I could be doing. I’m feeling lazy though and a little woozy in the head from the allergy pill, so it’s likely I will continue to not get much done today.

I’m sure I’ll make up for it at a later date. I always do.
