Cookies, Gift Wrapping, and the Neti Pot — It’s Thanksgiving!

in holidays/birthdays

Ahhh, yes.  That’s a traditional Thanksgiving for you.  Don’t those terms always just pop into your head when you think Thanksgiving?

Okay, perhaps they don’t.

We’re busy getting ready for Thanksgiving here.  I’m baking cookies, as part of my contribution to our Thanksgiving feast.  I also need to be busy wrapping Thanksgiving Christmas presents.  No, I’m not an overachiever.  This Thanksgiving, like many for the past few years, will be Turkey-mas for us.  We’ll be celebrating Christmas with some of our extended family.  So, hence the gift wrap.

Oh — and the neti pot?  Sadly, I’m still stuffed up.  I’m hoping for a Thanksgiving miracle that involves clear sinuses.

In order to focus on all of those things that I really should be working on around the house instead of here, I’m going to sign off for Thanksgiving now.  I’ll still be around, so if you need me, just drop me an email.  I just hope to start being a bit more productive. 

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

I'm sorry you're still stuffed up!There was a trick I used when I had a sinus infection: put a tbsp. of vicks in a bowl and pour boiling water over it. Cover your head with a towel and breathe in the steam. Do this for 15 minutes taking breaks now and again. It should help clear SOME stuff up at least temporarily. ALSO, I just read recently that onions are amazing healers for all things including sinus infections! 2 options: slice a fresh onion and rub it on your sinuses, and put the onion slice in a bowl right next to your head when you're sleeping and you should wake up all clear in the morning. I haven't tried it, but other bloggers have with glowing reports! Can't hurt to try! Get well soon!

Sorry the Neti Pot is not working…if it's not coming through, keep trying. That just means you are that stuffed up. It often takes many, many tries to get it to irrigate correctly. My mom always lectures me that I should use it daily so I don't get to that totally stuffed up point.

Hope you feel better and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
