So, I went to the doctor (ick) which I hate to do, because I am one of those folks with no insurance. The State covers my kids &#8211; but since I am not under 18, over 65 or pregnant, I am not coverable. This would be why I am on such intimate terms with DayQuil! But anyway, dealing with this sinus crap for so long has sapped my will to live. So &#8211; to the doc.<\/p>\n<p>Where for just $86, she told me &#8220;Your sinuses are clogged.&#8221; Why THANK YOU DOC! I didn&#8217;t know that! So we come up with a course of treatment to kick it in the ass. She called in the scripts, and I headed across the street &#8211; where we discovered that the AWESOME STUFF &#8211; that, while costing 50 bucks it would make me feel better TOMORROW after just ONE DOSE &#8211; unfortunately falls under the category of &#8220;peninicillin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Crap.<\/p>\n<p>I have this pesky alergy, you see&#8230; So it was to phase two, which only cost 14 bucks for TWO scripts. Much cheaper. The fun part &#8211; one says take with milk. The other says &#8211; yo! easy on the dairy bitch! Which makes for much fun. And also, don&#8217;t take vitamins. I&#8217;ve recently started taking a daily, and well, it said to wait 2 hours after taking the meds or ew &#8211; sick to the tummy! So I waited for FOUR HOURS. Then took my vitamin.<\/p>\n<p>And promptly felt FAINT and as if i was totally gonna THROW UP. I managed not too, cuz um, ew. So my blossoming habit of taking a daily vitimin is now on the back burner. Oh well. on the plus side? blood pressure? ROCK SOLID. So neener you silly hospital lady that took it last time. I TOLD you it was because I hated hospitals!<\/p>\n<p>In other news &#8211; what do you do when that ugly S word shows up? Well. It&#8217;s simple. Scrape up EVERY LAST BIT of the nasty stuff&#8230; and make it into a SnowGirl.<\/p>\n<p>Voila.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a class=\"tt-flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/eclat\/280347229\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"171\" height=\"240\" border=\"0\" alt=\"FirstSnowGirl1\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/91\/280347229_1defcd7bb0_m.jpg\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"tt-flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/eclat\/280347312\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"200\" border=\"0\" alt=\"First SnowGirl\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/91\/280347312_14f8a5c526_m.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only temporarily, I&#8217;m sure.
