Well today is Memorial Day and even though I am not "working" I kind of took a day off. After eating and reading the paper I emptied the dishwasher and then gathered up the towels and washed, dried, folded and put away the towels. Kathleen came down stairs when I took the towels upstairs and made herself some breakfast.
I picked up the kitchen rugs and shook them out and then swept the kitchen floor then put the rugs back down. I had been noticing that the carpeting was getting pretty dirty, fir pollen pods and needles, so I got the vacuum cleaner out and vacuumed the downstairs.
By this time it was time for me to have lunch, so I fixed myself another smoked sausage on a bun with kraut. Kathleen was just finishing her breakfast and complained about the smell; I guess that she just does not appreciate good kraut.
After finishing lunch I gathered up the dishes and loaded them into the dishwasher and then sat for a while in the living room to rest up a little. After a little bit I went out to the garage and gathered up the crushed boxes that I broke down yesterday and put them on the front porch so that I could take them up front tomorrow morning for recycling along with the plastic and paper.
Kathleen said that I should refill the bird feeder on the front porch and then she also said that she wished that she could see out of the window better; a couple weeks ago she tried to wash the windows and just smeared the dirt around and made it look cloudy. So I added some ammonia to a bucket of water and took a cloth and a squeegee out and washed the two windows on the porch that looked out at the bird feeder.
Kathleen said that it looked a lot better but the inside needed cleaning as well but she said that she would do it sometime. For dinner tonight she made a chicken breast cut it up and added it to some rice. She also made some peas to go along with it but when we started to eat she felt that something was missing so we opened up a jar of apple sauce and that did the trick.
After we finished eating I gathered up the dishes and loaded them into the dishwasher and here I sit. I was just telling Kathleen that I do not understand why my nose runs all day long and at night it is all congested. From the time I get up I start coughing up mucus and blowing my nose and then I wake up in the middle of the night and my nose is all blocked up...go figure!

Sounds like you and I are in the same boat. But "luckily" for me I woke up this morning with a massive sinus headache and my ears have been plugged since Saturday. You can't imagine how good and bad both that I can't smell Brandon's poopy diapers. Good cause who wants to smell them but bad because by the time I change him, it's more of a mess and not as easy to clean. I'm sure you have had your share of days like that. I hope you are feeling better. Maybe I can knit you something to stick up your nose to catch all the snot during the day and something else to stick up there with like vicks on it so you can breathe better ;-)
I had a bad headache yesterday as well, I finally got rid of it but by then I was pretty tired.
I have been using all kinds of thing to try and keep my nose unclogged at night, I have found a decongestant nasal spray that works pretty good.
Right now I can not get it to stop running; blow my nose about every ten minutes and it still runs.
