Kimberly-Clark

Time to buy stock again. It’s hay-fever season and there is no end to the sneezing and itchy nose business. As the gentle zephyrs blow everything around I am hoping for an early frost – even though it’s still August.

These things never bothered me in my youth. Why am I becoming a delicate flower now? It’s rather annoying. At least the imperceptible tremor in my left eye is gone, another annoyance brought on by either dry eyes or stress, fatigue, overuse…the possibilities there are endless. The optometrist gave me drops and said, “Some people have found tonic water helps, too.” So I tried both.

She didn’t say whether or not to add vodka, so as a precaution, I added a pinch. At least the sneezing didn’t bother me as much and the tremor is gone. Modern medicine!
