Sunday: New Day - New Week - New Start.
We are right in the middle of allergy season. I keep switching up my allergy meds trying to avoid the big guns (the ones with steroids).
The reason I bring this up is that I seem to be self medicating my allergies with food. Now that I realize this I can be more mindful of what I am doing. Maybe substituting herb tea will help - worth a try.
Now for a complete change of subject - today I am thankful for my dog. He tries so hard to please. For instance, when we feed the cats, he sits politely at a distance to allow the cats to eat undisturbed. He is less than a foot high but works his hardest to be the best watchdog anyone could hope for. I forget how lucky I am to have him.

GREAT thing to be thankful for -- my little dog means a lot to me too.
Hoping the allergy thing passes quickly. That can be agony. I find I have fewer symptoms than when I was heavier -- not sure of the connection but grateful :)

I agree that if you can avoid steroids, it's better. I couldn't, so I just have to deal with it and hope for an eventual move to a place where I won't need them. I'm actually on a half-dose, so that helps at least a little bit. If you find a good alternative, I'd love to hear about it!!! And, yes....aren't we lucky to have our pooches???!!!

Mom2Boxers - One of these days I'm going to get my pictures organized. I love it when others put up theirs. We may never meet but I feel so much closer after having seen the pics.

Sandy - I hate that for you! Is this something you have to take all the time or is it seasonal?
