Week 16

My allergies are killing me. They are amplified 10x their usual effect. Fortunately they have been sticking to issues with my nose and sinuses. The worst thing for me is itchy eyes, and that isn't happening. Obviously, I can't really take any thing, but I did pick up a Neti Pot. Essentially, it flushes out your sinuses. I've been using before bed so I can actually fall asleep. How long the effects seem to last have varied. Sometimes I wake in the middle of the night and get get right back to sleep and sometimes it takes hours to get back to sleep, because I feel I can barely breathe. There is much information that says allergies are more severe during pregnancy, so at least there is one symptom :)

I went to pack away the winter clothes for the season, although this means I need to unpack the summer clothes, many of which I'm guessing won't fit when June rolls around. I'm not complaining, just noting.

I recently watched Supersize Me, which I absolutely loved and recommend to everyone - especially the special feature interview with the author of Fast Food Nation.

It's been pretty cool here, but thankfully, no snow. I'm anxious to get back to the 70's.
