Today is a Better Day

I think I have mention before that I am turning 30 this year. Actually in a few more weeks I will be officially old. Another sign that my body is falling apart is the new on set of allergies. Yesterday I felt like shit, couldn’t find any Claritin so I resorted to taking one of my mothers allergy pills. Now I learned along time ago not to take other peoples prescription medicine. BUT since my mother is a nurse and she assured me it would make my eyes stop itching I decided to try it. Now this pill did successfully stop my eyes from itching but everything else started to itch – not good.

I stopped to pick up some Claritin at a nearby grocery store and they were completely sold out. I tried calling around to see who may have some in stock and proceed to knock over a whole cup of ice-cold water into my lap. As I am screaming shit into the phone out of shock the pharmacist sympathizes with me about not being able to find Claritin. LOL.

So what am I to do at this point? I am walking around scratching like a junkie. My butt is wet (literally) and the seat of my chair is also wet. And I really can’t take any more drugs for 12 hours. I was miserable. I went home took a nap and woke up with a headache. I never had allergies like this before. Tylenol didn’t work all I wanted was some Claritin and I couldn’t find any.

The fiancée said he is going to buy me sippy cups, because this isn’t the first time I spilled a liquid into my lap. Last year it was hot tea and I had 2nd degree burns to my inner tights. So I am thankful this time it was a cold liquid but still embarrassing.


I finally found a store that had Claritin at about 10 last night and I can say that today’s start is much better then yesterday. Keep your fingers crossed that there are no spills.
