WEEKEND BUMMER

I am sick again. Check out my loot for the weekend... With the on-again, off-again rains and pollution bundled with stress, my rhinitis and asthma are doing an encore--and how! Getting sick on a weekend is the pits. Why couldn't I just get sick on a Monday? Hehehe!

I remember my worst rhinitis attack was back in my old office. So much was my allergies that my eardrums popped and I couldn't hear clearly for about a week! This I blame on the dust and mites especially since my old office had wall to wall carpeting.

After a series of cold spells doing the rounds on all my former officemates' respiratory system, the building administration FINALLY deemed it fit to hire carpet cleaners. A bit of scrubbing, a dash of shampoo, punctuated with vacuuming, and voila--our lungs finally cleared up.

Thanks to regular and systematic carpet cleaning, the world would be a much better place.
