August (0 Comments)
I’m allergic to it.
Every August I sneeze, get stuffy and watery and miserable over all.
I have a “thing” about taking medication. I try to avoid it as much as possible. Just slightly insane that way. Therefore, I wait until I am truly feeling terrible before I start taking anything. This year, however, I have taken a more proactive approach. In July when I first noticed stuffiness and sneezing I started taking a generic allergy medicine. I have kept it up plus following some allergy advice from my Cousin. I washed the pillows and have been keeping the sheets washed better. Overall I have been doing better this year. I was thinking it was silly to say that as so much of August was left but then I realized it was the 23rd! Which means we are on the down hill stretch.
I have still had a stuffy nose and a little sneezing but overall it’s been tolerable.
I don’t know if it is the more proactive approach or if something is different this year outside. But I’ll take it!
