la vida es bella: Tree Pollen...

Tree Pollen...

In my neck of the woods, tree pollen is in the high red zone ALERT right now! I have never been one to have allergies, or been diagnosed with allergies, but on Friday I had a window open in the livingroom (big mistake!) and that afternoon started getting a runny nose, and my throat kept getting more sore, I felt headachy and lethargic, and my throat got so bad that I could barely swallow. Finally by the time Sunday rolled around, I felt a little better so I had errands to run, and by Sunday evening I started feeling like crap again! Even Isabella had allergies so bad yesterday that she stayed home from school, but she has prescription medications when she has flares, so today she was better and went onto school...but me? I was miserable yesterday and even took Isabella's Zyrtec hoping it would work, but it did not, so I called my doctor. He recommended Zyrtec or Zyrtec D. Hey, come to find out that's what Certrizine is that I've been taking! shit, damn, fuck...I am about sick of this crud!...ugh. The pharmacist says I definitely need an antihistamine and to try Claritin or Allegra...I just want to go to bed. :(

Oregon in bloom. Got pics? Sorry to hear about your hip, ouch. Today I've felt a little better, still sneezing though and my voice doesn't sound like it should! I might have to try some Benadryl. Always good to hear from you. Things never change here.

SR Drafted: "The patient is currently single and is in a sedating relationship."

Dictated: The patient is currently single and is in a dating relationship. (I need one of those!) :)

We did recheck a basic embolic pain yesterday, and this does reveal slight elevation in the creatinine to 1.4. *should be a basic metabolic panel*

On My Radio

The air is cool, the colors fade, the long arm of night grows with a looming shade. Only small sparkles fill the sky, Where sounds of wings, blow on by. Yes this is a time to open ones mind, letting all in, yet sinking away..... Come all, let us play...

I love my music, all kinds, except hard heavy metal and bad rap, and I'm not a country fan at heart.

I am a sucker for good music quotes. I found this quote on REFLECTIONS blog, and I think it is great! "I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours.

But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places.

Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality."

~H.A. Overstreet

I found another great quote about music on a blog called "At The Starting Gate." It's fabulous!

Music is an expression that all can embrace, interpret, and feel. It is an expression that will never die and will constantly be created and twisted into enjoyable melodic prose.

Music is like an antidote, it helps reduce stress, it is what I can depend on when many things in life are not trustworthy.

Music is my sanity and my passion; a way to escape the physical world and express ideas and emotions. Music is a link to my dreams which helps me to relax, visualize and create.

Music is love, devotion, precise, discipline, and adoration and it brings me closer to God.
