Waving the White Flag

I firmly believe that positive thinking can keep me healthy. Repeating that I am not sick and taking all the meds usually does the trick.

I knew this was coming. I have battled allergies and sinus infections for as long as I have memories. I tried allergy shots but the side effects weren’t worth whatever solution was supposed to happen.

So again, I knew this was coming but could not stop it.

We have been so busy lately and then the ragweed monster came to fight. It started with a little congestion and morphed in to a cough. I kept pushing - as I do - and took OTC meds to contain it. A few weeks later and I am on round 2 of prednisone and have an appointment with the allergist on Friday.

I am tired. Exhausted. I am coughing still and my voice is downright scary. I could deal with those things but I have become grumpy and snappy. I draw the line there.

I am not an unhappy human. I like hugs and smiles and people. But today I was grumpy and snappy and realize that I need to get myself well.

So, off to bed I go and hopefully rest helps. Hopefully the meds help. And hopefully I am 100% again soon.

See ya on the roads...when I feel better.
