But I've got a trick back from years and years of sneezing and coughing. I even broke a rib and bruised other ribs from sneezing and coughing. In fact, I've injured myself severely more times from allergy attacks than from fighting, using power tools, using inappropriate objects to separate frozen meat patties and other dangerous things. Between the sneezing, coughing and lack of balance caused by wonky balance tubes, seriously, am surprised I am still mostly in one piece.<br /><br />Fortunately, the recovery using pressure (one of those hospital stretchy velcro belly wraps) and heat did the usual trick of fixing it overnight.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-22224883774766216072021-08-04T09:17:30.234-07:002021-08-04T09:17:30.234-07:00Hope your visit with them has been fun and eventfu...Hope your visit with them has been fun and eventful in a good way. <br /><br />Is your neck of the woods clamping down due to the Covidiocracy?Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-28853423126779846452021-08-04T09:16:50.780-07:002021-08-04T09:16:50.780-07:00Yep.

Driving North from Naples around Tampa Bay the rain overpowered my windshield wipers, like nearly zero visibility. After pulling over to the breakdown lane to wait it out, I was treated to the sight of Florida drivers blasting past at 70 mph. Most likely, they were sneering at the damned tourist, me.Well Seasoned Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670165728759453075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-48244477326727158982021-08-04T06:19:21.078-07:002021-08-04T06:19:21.078-07:00Beans - I had a relatively healthy adulthood and s...Beans - I had a relatively healthy adulthood and still remember the first time I actually strained my back. It was doing a deadlift and the fault was mine: failed to set up correctly. That moment when my back said "Hey, no, let us not do this" was excruciating, as was the month afterward as I did very little and let my back recover.<br /><br />Toirdhealbheach Beucailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872794169534403463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-1666071388979716652021-08-04T05:23:10.237-07:002021-08-04T05:23:10.237-07:00I am certainly keeping you busy aren't I?
