Pollen Alert! Pollen Alert!
May. 28th, 2012 05:09 pmI saw the wind yesterday; it was yellow.
The pines are getting all horny about a month early around here. There is a coating of yellowy-green powder on everything, outdoors and in, which leads to sinus headaches for the husband, sniffles for the kid and outdoors avoidance for me.
Granted, a big part of the outdoors avoidance on my part is due to the sunburn I got on Saturday. It was a littler worse than I thought it was.
( My back, let me show you it )
It started peeling yesterday, and is still on the prickly side. Ah well. Good thing is? I didn't get sick from it! That three hour nap on Saturday afternoon was the brunt of it. In fact, I've had a load of energy since, so either I just got up to speed on my vitamin D or I'm doing way better than I thought I was. Yay!
But, yeah. Productive weekend has been really productive. The walkway is one brick from being finished (I bet it will be finished by the time I post this; Geoff is awesome), the kitchen is cleaner than it has been in ages, the laundry is all done except for what we're wearing, my bedroom is clean, and I even cooked. Willingly. And this morning I woke up feeling awake and chipper! Granted it was after ten hours of sleep, but still!
And Geoff gave Page a buzz cut. Poor kid should be much more comfortable now where heat is concerned. His front tooth that's just on the verge of erupting, however, I can't help him with (besides giving him frozen teething toys). I think the next two weeks might be difficult ones for Page. :-(
So. As of tomorrow I have three days to study for my English Comp exam, and five days to prepare for the portraiture lesson I'm giving at the church. So, I think it will be a busy week. However, I think I may actually be up for it.
