Aww, poor Muffin.   :(  Rest up, my dear.

I thought The Girl was coming down with it, but so far, so good.

The dust out there is killing me though.

Glad she doesn't have it! I hope it stays away!!!

I was really hoping the stuffy nose was from all the dust, but no such luck...

Claims Review at 12:30 and then I am heading home to nap with my kitty....  :-\

My friend, who is a doctor (although she's never played one on TV), swears by a saline nasal spray. I spritz up each nostril morning and night to ward off the crud. Sounds like a PITA but better than the crud.

Anyone have a tissue?  :-\
Nothing clever to say here.  Not enough caffine yet.

Started coming down with it Saturday, should be better to start over Saturday. Rennies probably share mugs all too often.

I use my neti pot when I get home from fest each night.   It helps a lot!  Same kind of scenario.  Gross to talk and think about, but has saved me from impending Fest Crud settling in.  Now if we could do without the wicked dust out there and ward off the black lung effect.   Wonder why the dumb weed puller doesn't have someone sprinkle down the site each morning.  Maybe we should all call in as patrons and whine.

We even got a hose out and watered the area in front of our booth and the neighbors, didn't last more than a couple hours. At least it wasn't as gusty Sunday.

I use the pressurized saline sprays as well.  Thought I had got the crud, but today I'm feeling a bit better.   Every weekend I feel a little bit more run down, so it's going to hit me eventually.

Ever try the "Two Hat Method?" You get a bottle of your favourite whiskey—mine is..ah..oh yeah.. Jack Daniel's—and hang your hat on the post at the foot of the bed (or support it somehow in view). You lay in bed and sip the whiskey steadily. As soon as you see two hats, cap the bottle, pull the covers up, and go to sleep. You'll be fine next morning.  Good luck. Hope you all feel better soon!
