a cold or allergies, or...?
Is it allergies or is it a cold?
Runny nose, stuffed head, itchy throat, draining mucus (I know, it sounds horrible...and it is!), sore throat, cough, occasional headache (or sinus ache)...
Anyway, I have had one of the two--or a combination of both--for the last few weeks, coinciding with my vacation. Not the best formula for a restful time away.
I thought about what I would say when people asked, "How was your vacation?" One option included a brief recitation of all of my physical woes, my quandry in distinguishing betweena cold and/or allergies.
Another option was to simply talk about the great time I had relaxing and resting in the shadow of Palm Springs for seven days.
And that's the option I have chosen, even though the cold I have had is not easily camouflaged.
Generally it is easy to get caught up between an exercise of deciding whether or not it is one thing or another that is making us feel badly. What we sometimes miss is the obvious.
Cold or allergies...I was in Palm Springs!
It was great!
