Sinus Infection

Well diary, I’m not feeling that great today. I started with a sinus infection last week and got right on the antibiotics. Then I had to travel to NC and work 3 days in a very dusty environment. Now my pills are all gone and the symptoms are worse than ever. I’m supposed to fly to Asia today and it looks like I’ll need to cancel. I saw my doc last night and got some steroid anti inflammatory stuff to go with more pills. Need to pick them up this morning.

On another subject, I’ve been growing a beard the last 3 weeks and it’s filled in nicely. I kinda like the look but I’m thinking about shaving it off. It feels a little strange. Also, not to get too gross, I irrigate my sinuses with saline solution twice a day (routine sinus problems) and everything runs out on my facial hair. (TMI?)

Another event is that I’ve started working with a financial planner. This was tough for me since I pride myself on my organizational skills and love to learn about all the little tricks for keeping as much of my money as I can. My situation just got a little more complicated with some deferred income. I’ve been deferring my annual bonus ever since they started in 1999. This is the year when I asked to start receiving some since Justin will be starting college. The young gal we found seems pretty knowledgable although she’s not a CPA yet. We’ve retained her services for 1 year and we’ll see how it goes.

I also saw that my UVM hockey cats beat Providence last night.  Made my morning.
