We haven’t had any interesting or at least blogworthy conversations around here lately.
The cedar pollen — you already know is about to kill me and will have me complaining for the next few months. Yesterday Vince kept commenting about my four hour nap.
Me: You know I’m going to sleep a lot while taking antihistamines and allergy meds til the cedar pollen is gone!
Vince: That’s ok . . so long as you’re awake enough to cook.
Really, Vince? He hopes I survive long enough so he has a full belly!
Last night we were going to go to bed early but it was close to midnight. It’s kinda hard to go to bed early when your nap lasted til 8 p.m. Yesterday when there were guys doing some work in our bedroom, the only meds I take are thyroid meds and I had one bottle with just a couple of pills in it and a full bottle on the nightstand so, not knowing the guys, I stuck the pills under my pillow so as not to tempt anyone with prescription bottles right by where they were working. It ended up Vince stayed in there and talked to them while they were working but we got in bed and I hadn’t remembered that my pills were under the pillow. Vince was already asleep, I was tossing and turning and wrestling with my pillow and one of the bottles rolled off and crashed to the floor. It’s a wood floor and it sounded loud in the quiet room. Vince kinda jumped but didn’t say anything. About half an hour later, the second bottle fell and woke us both up. At some point, my Vicks Vapo Rub rolled off and we both started giggling. Vince said “How much more cr*p do you have under that pillow??” That’s it . . it’s all fallen out now.
I feel like I need a nap today but it’s best I stay awake and try to sleep tonight.

I am having the same problems with the cedar!! But I have been taking the Sinus Mucinex because the Cedar Fever stuff does not work on me. I bought the daytime and nighttime liquid. I slept so good last night! I did not wake up until 10 am!!

At least the rain will knock the pollen down for a few days . . I hope!
