I woke up in the early hours of Monday with a headache and a hunch that I'd be calling in sick. I woke up again just before 6:00 certain of the fact. I went ahead and called in. I woke up at 9:00 and called my chiropractor for an emergency allergy treatment. I got back from that appointment at 10:30 and took a nap. After lunch I took another nap. After a load of laundry and some errands, I was back in bed by 9:20.

B-l-e-h.

The wind and rain last week and through the weekend carried in enough allergens to throw my system for a loop. I'm feeling better today, but tired. Still a little headachey, though, and delicate from yesterday's menstrual cramping (that didn't help the headache, I'm sure).

One of my errands was a jaunt out to Michael's to get glass marbles for the water fountain I bought for Fetish. I got it all cleaned and treated with the metal protectant to make the fountain food-safe. Poured in the marbles, filled it with water, plugged it in...and she just looked at it. I got a pillow from the couch and sat next to it, reading a book for about twenty minutes. She just looked at it. I really hope she figures out that running water is running water. It doesn't have to come out of the shower faucet. Is she smart enough to catch on? We'll see.

Very not fun. pastmagic and I both get them this time of year.

I use a saline spray that helps some. I will try a more in-depth irrigation process and see what that does. Thanks for the pointer.

I've used a Neti Pot like system for several years now and I never get nose bleeds at all anymore. I used to get a couple a week (at night, like you). It's not fun at first, but once your sinuses get used to it, it's actually very soothing.
