Last night I did a lot of yard work and today I have paid for it. I’ve taken allergy medicine and I’ve put allergy eye drops in my eyeballs three times already today. When my allergies are acting up, my entire body feels like it shuts down and all I want to do is sleep until I feel better. I get exhausted pretty easily and have a hard time doing anything. I know it sounds dramatic but it is really how it makes my body feel! Without allergy medicine, I am a pretty useless lump of fluff.

I took a nap earlier this evening and I am about to go jump in bed here in a few minutes. It’s 11 PM and I feel dead to the world! Exhausted, actually. I really hope, with all of my might, that Zoey does not get hit by allergies like I did. I think allergies are pretty inevitable if you live in Oklahoma but I hope she doesn’t get burdened with them until she is a LOT older if it is going to happen. Stupid allergies!!

Tonight we went to Sam’s Club to get all of the food for the birthday party on Saturday. I still need to run to the store for a few other things that I didn’t wanna buy in bulk but other than that, the food part of the party is done. I will be happy when Saturday morning is here because the stress of having a lot of people in my tiny house is started to take over. I think a LOT of people I invited are actually going to show up. Of course, RSVPing is a thing of the past (apparently) so I don’t know EXACTLY how many people will be there, but I think there will be a lot. We’re either going to have barely enough hamburgers and hotdogs or we are going to have so many that Gene and I will be eating them for weeks to come.
