Oh, how I love the season of new growth…you know, spring and all its glory. New grass, bright new leaves, new flowers, new plants, baby animals. I can even deal with the return of the bees and wasps right now. Come summer I’ll be swatting and spraying, but right now it’s all good.
Except for one little thing. The sneezing, snorting, watering eyes, plugged ears and that ever so lovely annoying hacking unproductive cough, cough, cough. The one that usually makes me say to myself, “Wow, Denise, quick smoke another one.”
Obviously, the dh had enough of being kept awake all night because he called from work with orders to “call the doctor”. Uh, ok…why? Hey, the coughing hadn’t kept me awake, so what do I know? But since my head is throbbing and I can’t hear over the massive seashells in my ears, it’s apparent the OD of benadryl ain’t working.
Well silly me. There’s a new flavor-of-the-month bug going around and the doc had seen 20 of us with it today alone. Swell. Even more swell was the high temp and the oddly low bp. So, now with a major deadline looming I’m sucking down Zithromax and swilling spiked cough syrup. Oh, yeah, I’m betting this book is going to go through revision h*ll and then some. It’ll be fun, I’m sure.
Then again, that could be the drugs talking.
Oh, here’s a scary thought…maybe the drugs will write a better story…
Uh, hmmm—I should go now.
I do hope you’re enjoying whatever season is upon you. And I hope if you suffer from allergies that they aren’t wiping you out.
Until next time, take care and be well.
Denise Lynn
