Sweat Tents, My Beloved Eucalyptus, Etc.

Things were going fine, they really were, until the sinus infection took over last weekend. It's just that time of year when the seasons are changing and there's all kinds of dust and leaves and crap in the air and my sinuses are just like, no. I had a MASS-ahgze scheduled last Saturday and almost cancelled it because I felt so bad, but I've been trying to "feel" my body more, be more in touch with it and not be in my mind 100% of the time, so I went.

Thankfully!

It turns out that she massaged my sinuses and showed me how to help clear out the air bubbles and open the pathways! She also recommended some Eucalyptus oil for the shower, but instead, I heated up a bowl of water, put the oil in it, and held regular meetings at my own little Indian sweat lodge all weekend. It helped so, so much.

The worst part was last weekend, but these things tend to drag out, so it took basically all week for me to start feeling normal again. I did manage to finish decorating the house for fall, and look what I got! I couldn't help myself!

Most of  the time she's BFF's with the pumpkin. She grooms it (especially the green stem) and bullies it around.

Sinus infection aside, I love this time of year, and try to stop and watch the seasons change. It's getting darker earlier, of course, but we also get glimpses of the harvest moon.

Ok, loves, I must go occupy myself with brunch and school work until the Hogs game tonight. Delicious, delicious fall.

P.S. Try the Eucalyptus thing.
