I'm stuffy-nosed and chested tonight, and I *really* hope it's because of all the dust and cat-fur I've been around today. First I went through several more boxes of office supplies and stuff from the apartment trying to get rid of some more or at least determine what I want to put in the store room. Those were dusty.
Then I planted some flowers tonight so was around a lot of dirt and dust for that.
Then we took down the tree, which was full of cat hair (the cats loved playing in the tree, which was part of why it took us so long to take it down). So tiny particles of cat fur were flying.
Now I'm sneezing and coughing like crazy.
The problem is, we spent time with my parents this afternoon, and they're both sick (I'd already been exposed a dozen times anyway), and then it got cold while we were planting things so I got chilled. So this could be the onset of that cold instead.
I really hope it's just dust...
