OMG I'm snotty.... again!

[Certain Hope]

Ya haven't lived till you've kershnorkled out some nice fresh jalapenos 

Love,
Hope

P.S. somewhere in time, you asked me, Was ist moosh? ... well, it's similar to squoosh, 'cept ya don't get flattened.

I don't think my nose would gersnorfel jalapeno peppers, lol.

I eat them regularly and I'm pretty sure my body has a NO GERSNORFELING JALAPENO PEPPERS rule, lol.

I have done it with milk.....

not nearly so  bad   as    that     one      screwdriver. 



Orange juice and vodka. 


Ouch.

[Certain Hope]

ooo... even when I drank, vodka was off my list, due to just such a gersnorfeling kershnorklement years before, when I was a freshly minted drinker. Unforgettable! Screwdrivers are definitely not meant to be inhaled or kershnorkled!

::receiving (((()))))::

It wasn't good: /

I just shot myself up with grapeseed oil nose spray and the zicam gooey stuff..... just in case.... trying to be proactive with all the stress.

::looking for the Ocean saline nose spray::

Hops.... every time I open that one drawer I see the little netty pot......

and think of you; ) 

It's a testiment to the trust and admiration I hold for you.....

that I stuck that pretty little pot.....

 into my nose.....

and had a go......

you never know, lol?
 

hee

Wallll, podner...

Since yours is purple (mine is blah white) you could also stick a flower in it.

 

Hops

LOL!  I think I will take it out and stick a flower in.

It's a pretty little hand made thing, lol.

[lighter]

OK.... I'm not reaaaaaally snotty again but.....

I'm thinking of getting out the netti pot and using it in the shower.... just as a distraction, lol. 

I haven't tried using it since my ear went all ouchy on me several weeks back.

I have my handy dandy 50%alcohol 50%vinegar drops handy, lol. 

How delicate can ya get, lol?

::going to light candles and warm up the netti pot::

[isittoolate]

OMG lighter.

Have you been messing with this since last July? Maybe you ought see a doctor? Might it be allergies? Sinus infection?

Take good care now!
Love ya

I'm not really snotty but I'm one of those people who's got allergies and I live in a place where something blooms year round. 

Always.

So... I was going to use the Neti pot, just for the distraction, lol. 

I took my 5yo into the shower instead. 

She's finally gotten used to water on her face, lol. 

She used to scream like a girl and demand a towel every time her eyes got wet, lol. 

About 15 minutes ago my 6 yo had a big nose bleed... well... big for her. 

It happens every once in a while and there was blood everywhere on the floor in front of her. 

She always handles it like a champ but,

this time (only),

I screamed like a girl

[isittoolate]

hiya
I don't like water pouring on my face and my daughter didn't either.

To wash her hair I put the ironing board on the side of the sink and the other end on a chair. She could lie flat on her tummy and I gave her a facecloth to hold over her face. That was okay with her.

I don't have allergies but this place is not so good for bad allergies. I might get a slightly runny nose when it rains or when it snows.---and there I am, a poet!

[lighter]

Wow Izz.

That was a very sweet.....

complicated......

 way to wash a child's hair, lol. 

I just put mine in the tub and had them hold their heads back and poured a cup of water over them....

 was careful not to get water on their faces.

Trusty washcloth nearby if anything traumatic happened, like a dribble got away, lol; )

[Hopalong]

My D loved to swim so I taught her to rinse her own hair by holding her nose and scrunching her eyes shut and plunging under the water in the tub and thrashing her head back and forth.

She liked doing it because I was so IMPRESSED! 

Hops

[lighter]

My oldest li'l dumplin holds her nose and spins around like an alligator in a death roll, lol. 

Really quite something to behold; )

I miss babying them and I miss the quiet comforting rituals of diaper changes, nap time and ::gasp:: breast feeding.

OMG, lol..... I'm a mess, lol.
