Steam, Onions, & Spicy Mongolian Sauce Does the Trick!

When you get sick twice in 6 months you know something has got to change. Sorry for falling off the face of the earth a little bit, but some point on Wednesday I got really sick. Writing and reading blogs is one of my favorite past-times, but sometimes you have to take care of yourself and step back from the computer. I hate being sick...anything from a sinus infection to a cold makes me miserable. I hate having that one nostril that is clogged...Ugh!! I could literally throw a vase across the room I hate it so much.

Yesterday I was done...I know your supposed to wait it out when it's a sinus infection but it was 2am and I knew I had to be up this morning by 7am to get a cavity filled. (Oh yes, something else to drive me crazy). I got out of bed and did what I tell other hypochondriacs like myself NOT to do...I googled how to clear a stuffy nose. I fear neti pots so that was out of the question, but I knew I could boil some water, I happened to have an onion, and this Williams Sonoma Spicy Mongolian Stir Fry sauce. *Insert Lightbulb Above my head*

Somewhere in the madness of my tip-toeing not to wake up Craig and petting the cat so she wouldn't meow at my craziness, I made this concoction of an assembly line: Put my head over the steam for a minute, inhale onions for another, and then take a spoonful of Mongolian Sauce. No joke...FINALLY my left nostril was CLEAR after 3 days of miserableness. Thank God!!

I don't know if I was just at that hump of when I should start to feel better, or this medley really works, but yes I'm finally starting to feel better. My face is numb from the shot of Novocain for my tooth, my lips are swollen like a blowfish a little bit from it, but I can breathe out of both nostrils!! So what to do now?

I think I touch my face too much...I'm going to be extra careful not to do it and make sure I keep an extra jacket in the car because with this up/down weather I don't want to catch a chill. Spring really needs to get here...ASAP!!! =)

Here are some posts that I really enjoyed this week as well...
