neti pot
i'm super duper sick right now. well, maybe not that sick. i have a lot of crap coming out of my nose area and that crap is clear colored so i guess it could be worse.......
yesterday while we were getting some dinner fixin's at whole foods i got a neti pot. i've been wanting one of these since i saw my ceramics teacher from a few years ago demonstrate it in class.
the first time i used it my nose area/whole sinus area (???) was so stuffed that the saline solution wouldn't travel from one nostril to the next. i blew my nose a hundred times and it was still too clogged. today at school i blew my nose over and over again and stuff just kept filling in the empty spaces. after i got home i tried it again and it finally almost started to work correctly. i'm sure my nose area will be stuffed and drippy for a while longer.
now i'm going to nap for a long time. tonight we have the first of several (seven) birthing classes to go to. we are supposed to bring "two soft pillows" and i'm not sure if we should take our bed pillows (soft) or some other pillows that we have (probably not as soft).
okay bye.

Aw, I'm jealous. I've wanted a neti pot for awhile too, but I keep not getting one. I want to know how you end up liking it. Have fun in your class! :)
PS, I'd bring the bed pillows. But that's just me.
