It is stronger than a Benadril, but the taste is totally revolting.<br />Somehow the sedative effect of most antihistamine medications in my case manifests itself not only in a tiredness, but in increased irritation by everything and especially everybody. It wakes a cranky bitch in me.Galina L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09156132815504279615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-26272904217154920882015-04-19T16:55:54.677-05:002015-04-19T16:55:54.677-05:00Thanks Tess, our weather has been very Spring Like...Thanks Tess, our weather has been very Spring Like and the gardens and woodlands are looking good.<br /><br />Thanks .....

I guess it could be said that we still have so much to do, we've retired from remunerative work but certainly not from the work of LIVING. :-D I hope that doesn't end any time soon!<br /><br />I hope you and Eddie have a wonderful spring weekend, enjoying the bluebells etc!tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254045589639201707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-17276135180380854552015-04-18T11:37:53.892-05:002015-04-18T11:37:53.892-05:00Ah Tess, it seems to be it's the age old probl...Ah Tess, it seems to be it's the age old problem ......... as many retirees say "how on earth did I find time to work!"<br /><br />Sorry to hear about your allergies, in the UK too many are sneezing and beginning to suffer ... it's such a shame.<br /><br />Hope you do enjoy your lay in tomorrow morning.<br /><br />Take Care<br /><br />All the best JanLowcarb team memberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961199165290289611noreply@blogger.com
