Terribly disappointing trip to the Allergy Specialist today. Was hoping to find myself facing the business end of a sharp, pointy, hollow stick loaded with toxins designed to irritate my immune system, thus training it to ignore said toxins.
Alas! The Physician's Assistant (PA) had other ideas. She is still hoping that I will find relief utilizing the Ipratropium Bromide nasal spray, and the other stuff (whose name escapes me), which is a pill.
Naturally, these medications are the type which require long exposure to become effective, so we won't know for a couple weeks whether they are working or not.
We started the Fire Safety Merit Badge tonight at Scouts, which was a lot of fun. The boys and I all sat in the church library and talked about preventing and controlling fires while all the "old" guys sat out in the gym and told old "war" stories.
It was much more fun in the library!
Next up, I have to schedule a trip to the Fire Station. I hope they let me sit in the cab of the truck and turn on the siren!!
Meanwhile, my brain is aching, my arm is tingling from a pinched nerve, my sinuses are dried out, and, looking at the incredible number of over-the-counter medications which currently grace the pantry, it appears I could open my own pharmacuetical outlet store.

Sorry about your allergies, but am hoping this plan will give you some relief.
And why did this just show up on my screen today?
