Day 251: Ret et Tina

This is just a lame attempt at trying to imitate and take inspiration from Pandorasbox by myrtepeert. I faved a few of her works. It's so awesome! Go check it out!

 

Anyway. So I got this idea in my head when I wanted to incorporate one of my recent sufferings as of late. No, not the stress (calmed down, thanks to prayers).

But I've been suffering badly of Hay Fever. It's the time of the year whereby flowers pollinate like there's no tomorrow. And to those without this curse, think the flowers smell gorgeous, however, to me, every time I breath is a painful experience.

 

It's either the blocked sinuses. Or the blood-shot red swollen eyes. Oh and let's not forget the ten-at-a-time-sneezes one makes. And the constant need to blow one's nose.

But sometimes I'm glad I have it. Mainly for "cover up", when I just so happened to be crying, but don't want to make it out like I am. So there's an excuse, and I generally shift the blame onto my hay fever problem when my eyes are mightily swollen and bloodshot, and my nose is sniffy with snot. Oh yes.

But other than that, I hate having this curse.

 

Sleeping is a nightmare too (when trying to). The nose plays up. And in the morning too, vision is more blurred. And the nose plays up again too.

 

Blergh. The current antihistamines I'm using are rubbish. So I might just invest in some nasal spray (something I've rejected for a long long time, but might just have to resort to trying it out). And the ever-so-lush-and-refreshing-eye drops (which is an ok thing this year, as it's the first summer I've not worn contact lenses... so that's cool).

 

Or another option is to leave the green UK for a place where flowers don't pollinate like it's the end of the world. Oh yes. That sounds like a nice idea :)
