Hello everyone. I hope your day is going well. It is 85 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. I love it!
The pollen was really getting to me this morning so I took 2 Benadryl. There went the day. Those little pink pills knock me on my ass. I slept for a solid 3 hours and then it took another hour of just kind of laying there to finally wake up. You would have thought that I had taken a sleep gummy.
I don't have any big plans for the evening. I'm going to make a loaf cake and possibly the tuna pasta salad that I made last week that was so good. What's everyone else up to this afternoon?

I'm still having trouble with the pollen here. I can't wait for enough rain to wash it out of the air again.
When I take Benadryl, it acts like speed on my system. I can't sleep and zoom around cleaning and cooking. (Pretty hates it when I do that but I can't live with the stopped up nose and sneezing all the time.)
Have a good evening.

Benadryl has a similar effect on me, too. It doesn't make me sleepy at all. And yes, I am all zoomy from it, as well. But it truly does knock some people for a loop.

@MarieCoyle Pretty takes one tablet and sleeps for hours... It's annoying that we each get a different reaction from it.

I have a good friend who is about the same size as I am, and we are the same age. She can take one of those pills and just like Pretty, sleep for hours. Not me...it's amazing how they affect people differently.

I have no plans for this weekend. I'm trying to find out if my husband's 3rd cousin can come and help me clean up my husband's TV room because there's someone coming on Friday to replace a windowsill in that room. I'm between a rock and a hard place getting someone to help me.

Allergies and just plain old breathing issues here for nearly everyone today, and the last few days. Those thick, horrible dust storms are no joke. It's probably in your air now....we had many highway accidents, people couldn't see to drive in the dust.
Tuna pasta salad sounds like something I may like, too. I will have to look that up!
