It’s Wednesday again
the first Wednesday in a new month
The first Wednesday in December 2023
Which means it is the first
Wednesday in Summer in Australia
And guess what – after all our whinging and complaining about seasons being late. . it really felt as though summer had finally arrived yesterday 😎
I haven’t actually been ‘sick’ as in incapacitated these past few weeks just inconvenienced (and very cheesed off)
Thinking laterally I changed hair products as well as left off any skin care products but that didn’t appear to make much difference.
Anyway over the weekend after family remarked on the red eyes – and wheezy chest – I gave in and decided a trip to the GP was needed.
So now we are considering an allergy
To what we don’t know
It was early November when it first became a problem but as it became like a moveable feast, not constant but coming and going, I really didn’t think it was pollen related.
The GP has suggested I might be wrong though.
And because my usual ‘lubricating dry eye drops’ are having no effect, from yesterday I’m trialling some recommended allergy eye drops. Albalon A
And guess what – yes – they are feeling much better!

My hairdresser usually decorates the salon in bright Christmasy colours – change of plan this year. Silver elegance is how she described it



Glad that the change of eye drops is working.

Hope you can figure out the reason for your “issues” and find a comfortable solution. Although autumn here in California, we still have lots of pollens. I’ve been taking a Claritin almost every day for my itchy throat.

I am glad that your eyes are feeling better.
I do like the elegant approach to decorating. Beyond me, but much appreciated.

I’m glad the new drops are working.
Good luck finding what your allergic to. I’m still in the dark

I really hope you get it sorted. Weird isn’t it how our immune systems go off on a frolic as we get older. Mr B has developed some strange autoimmune reaction that gives him a fat lip from time to time. Science has no answer as to what triggers it. I hope you find yours (answer).

Given the time of the year I would guess hayfever, especially to ryegrass pollen. Is it worse when a northerly is blowing?
