My Boogers Are Hurting Me

November 19th, 2007 · 2 Comments

I’m from Southern California and have never lived where it is cold like it is here in Norway. And something that I have noticed is that my nose is perpetually running when I go outside in the cold (and red - not a good look and I have not figured out yet how to mask the red nose with makeup yet….working on that one). So then your nose is running and when I get home or into any building the heaters are on and they make the air REALLY dry. So all the snot dries up. But the air is soo dry that it dries up really fast and really alot and it hurts inside my nose! Grrr….

So that’s why my boogers are hurting me. I don’t like it!

    I search a lot of blogs — I can’t remember what lead me to your site, but I like to see what other people are trying.

    BTW, maybe you should try a humidifier. I got a really good off brand one for $20 and it was worth every penny. My skin wasn’t dry, my hair wasn’t staticy and I was breathing better too.

    LOL! You really crack me up, Kristie! A humidifier helps and if you want instant relief, spray some saline up your nose.
