Top Five things I love about having a sinus infection in Texas.

5- I can snork (that’s ‘hork’ through your nose) a loogie on the front steps and it will scare off bugs by making them think, ‘Hold on, boys, this house is spoken for.’ (For you yanks, yes, we still have bugs because it’s not cold enough yet to shoo them away.)
4- My snorks are so big that it’s okay to name them and talk to them. ‘Have a nice trip, Frank.’ ‘See you next year, Jeff.’ They can only be boy names, of course.
3- Maybe now I look pathetic enough that I can go back to bed before my husband leaves for work without making him feel taken for granted.
2- I can take multiple hour long hot baths during the day because when I soak my head in hot water is the only time I don’t feel like I’m going to fall over.
1-The best thing about having a sinus ‘issue’ is that it means I’m just like all my friends here, and hey, I like to feel like I belong, too!

Wow! Who would have guessed! I'll have to cancel my contract with Terminix and start snorking loogies around the perimeter of the house! What a great way to save money. I think I'll refrain from naming them! That's just a little on the strange side :)

Hope you feel better soon!
