Can a nose really contain that much?

OK, I seriously am sick of fall allergies. I spend approximately 1.25 hours outside for duty at school every day and it was a windy one. My allergies are worse tonight than they were last night, if that is even possible. The side of the nose I couldn't breathe through last night is clear but now I can't breath out of the other side and my ears are plugged. The only bright spot is that I don't have the headache to go with it.

Ghostbusters is just finishing up for the umpteenth time in the past month. Gman had some friends over tonight. They are good girls and they seemed to have a good time. Their mom let them stay until the movie was over but I told them they had to go home at 9:10. I guess they are in the 4th and 5th grade, so that's probably alright.

Gregory has 2 days until his big dancing gig at the teacher administration center. He's been practicing every night for the last two weeks and he's really excited. I will meet them all before school and ride there to help chaperone and also to see Gman dance. I'm so proud of him. He's so very talented when it comes to musical things and I'm also proud of him because his school year has gotten off to a great start! He seems to actually be making some friends finally and I'm so happy for him. I know that's difficult for him and I know he hates all the therapy he's had to do but I can finally see that it's making a difference for him and that maybe he'll be able to find a way past his disability with my hard work with him. He's so much like his dad that I'm happy to be in his life, not only because I'm his mother, but also because he can see what an easy going person with a great sense of humor (me) is like and how they act as well as an extremely structured person(his dad). I think he's getting the best of both worlds. I just wish I was more organized.

If I could treat myself for one year, I would treat myself to a housekeeper. I'm often so exhausted at night when I get home that no housework gets done. I try to do a little bit each night to stay caught up but nights like tonight I will crash on the couch and take a nap. Ughh....that being tired really sucks.

I think I'm going to go out for a walk here in a little bit and see if I can get some energy by walking.

All in all it was a great day though. I'm looking forward to the weekend and meeting up with some friends that I haven't seen in awhile. Next weekend, I think Gman and I might do a little camping. We were going to camp in mom's back yard last weekend in Watertown, however it was a little too nippy so we camped out on the living room floor instead. Try doing that when you're on the back side of your 30's. hahahahaha.

I'm off to bed. Here's hoping my nose well runs dry tonight. I'm ready for allergy season to be over. blahhh
