PAY DAY!  :)

 8:00 AM - one 6oz. yogurt (Fat free, of course.  Strawberry banana flavored)

I took my Sudafed and nasal steroids, but when I tried to do the nasal rinse, it was HORRIBLY PAINFUL!!!!!    It surprised me because I've done it several times and it's never hurt.   When I FIRST did it, I felt the pressure of it trying to go through all the congestion, but it wasn't painful, just a bit uncomfortable.    I waited until the pain subsided and then tried the opposite nostril and went slowly.   There's no pain in the nostril area, but UP between and under my eyes.   Yes, again....I yelled!!!!  AHHHH!!!!  PAIN.      I stopped.   It should NOT hurt like that.      The only reason I can even begin to come up with is that I did yesterday's rinse late at night and was attempting to do today's in the morning and perhaps it was just too soon.    I don't know, but I won't try again until tomorrow morning.      (ENT.......Save me!     Ha!)
                      (Started to feel drainage around 11:30 or so...)
11:45 AM- Salad with cucumbers, feta cheese, 2 slices of turkey lunch meat, and oil & vinegar dressing              (Started to feel a bit of pressure in my head and tired around 12:30 PM.)
 1:05 PM - Creamsicle   (Trying to swallow drainage...need to drink more water.)
 2:45 PM - popsicle

*I feel crazy pressure under my eyes.   When I move my eyes to the corners (esp looking to the right) I feel the strain.   If I bow my head, the pressure builds QUICKLY.    I can't move my head up or down for fear of feeling dizzy.   Grrr.....  And, yes, I still feel drainage.      I just want to sleep.

 3:30 PM - another popsicle   :)
 5:30 PM - Cottage cheese & Salad (same as earlier)
