Corn Dust
As this first week of class arrived, I began to feel like I had a tickle in the throat (uh oh . . . ), then a bit of a sniffle (daaaangit), then a full-fledged catarrh (aw for heaven's sake). And then it struck me: around this time every year, I start having to add Nasonex to my drug regime so that I can counter an allergy flare-up caused by . . . the drying-up corn & all the dust/mold/etc that it's releasing as it gets harvested. It takes a couple of days (and yesterday I lost my voice in the second of my three classes), but once I get the dosage caught up, things improve.
The Youngest had been having some "walking pneumonia," so I'm glad it wasn't that.
I don't have time to be sick this time of year . . . September and October are extraordinarily busy months, culminating in the pig pickin (less than two months away!)
