Don’t be alarmed there is more rain in the forecast and
you should know what that means. If it
rains without me cutting my yard it will get out of control. My yard still had some remnants of the oyster
roast left, including the brick layout for my fire pit.
I spent an hour picking up bricks, moving several large
piles of fire wood, and raking the yard.
I incorporated curls into both the brick moving and firewood
relocation. I was feeling pretty smart
for thinking that up.
Once everything was good to go I pulled the ole lawn
mower and went to work cutting grass. In the end I spent over two hours
outside. I thought seriously about
jogging but decided that I didn’t want to over do it.
Daily Recap:
Matt: 2 hours of yard work
Kelly: TBD
It’s fall and while there isn’t anything blooming there
are plenty of things dying. I assume
that is what has been setting off my allergies lately. This evening I was severely stuffed up and
had to use my neti pot. If you have never used one or don’t know what it is, it
is used for clearing your sinus passages with saline solution.
A while ago my ear, nose, and throat doctor recommended I
use a saline solution to irrigate my nasal passages: Enter the Neti Pot.
I did a little research into how it works. It turns out there are tiny hairs in the
nasal passages called cilia. These tiny
hairs wave back and forth and their job, WARNING: this is a little gross, is to
push mucus back into your throat where it could be swallowed or out into your
nasal passages were you can blow it out.
The neti pot removes irritants and “crust” so the cilia can work more effectively.
There is the biology lesson you probably were not
expecting.
