Allergies

So I think I figured out why I've been so tired this week. My allergies are horrible here in the winter. Apparently Texas has some cedar trees that bloom in the winter and I get this horrible cough and am stuffy and sneezy alll the time. So I went to the doctor on Monday and they prescribed me a new allergy med. Its Zyrtec mixed with Sudafed and they had me taking 2 every night. I asked my resident pharmicist (my father-in-law) and he said the Sudafed part is probably to blame. So I'm going to cut back to 1 every night and see if that helps. Yay, he's awesome.

Anyway, I'm glad I (hopefully) figured out the problem because I was dragging all week at work. It made the week waaaay too long. And then at night, I would pass out and then wake up like every 2 hours and have a hard time falling back asleep. So, hopefully this works.

I got to talk to Nick today on the phone and open my birthday presents!!! I sure know how to drag out my birthday, ha ha. He got me some awesome, fun stuff. I got: Die Hard 3 (woo!), a shirt & pet bandana from where I went to college (because apparently the dogs and I are full of Army spirit & LMU needs some love too), a mini-herb garden and some more funny books. I was especially amused by "The Best Baby Name Book (in the whole wide world)". Funny boy. That one definitely made me laugh! Obviously we will be having kids at some point, but definitely not any time in the near future. I was just skimming through it and happened to find Rufus in there. I found it hilarious that apparently it Latin for "red-haired". Apparently Nick made a good name choice for our little destroyer.

So glad its the weekend!!!
