Have you tried these? We have a lot of seasonal allergies here. So this might be something for us to try.

 

Yes.  My son was adding peppermint to a smoothie one morning, took a whiff of the extract and proclaimed that it really cleared his head.  I did a little reading and decided these would be worth a try.  It clears my head at least momentarily.  I prefer not to take drugs -- even over the counter medications -- so this works for me.

And while we are starting to see 70s pretty regularly already... March is when GA seems to have some of its best snowstorms and cold.

And right on cue... last weekend it was 80 degrees, this weekend we are getting down to 20 degrees on Sunday. With a chance of snow on Saturday. Yay.

They say March comes in like a lamb and leaves like a lion. I say close the door; they both leave enormous messes all over the carpet and they smell.

May I just express how touched I am by folks on the Eastside of King County? Especially the community of Bellevue School District's Odle Middle School? Washington State dropped the indoor mask mandate on Saturday, and we have been instructed to not request of others to mask up around those of us who may be immunocompromised or otherwise concerned for their personal health.

When I left work last week, the Office Manager and I decided I would try to do the job from the currently unused Office Manager's office, as we had no idea how many people were going to go without masks starting today. But, when I showed up this morning, I asked if anyone had noticed if masks were being worn or not. Every person working in the office had masks on. All of the administration and staff I had contact with had masks on. Just about 90% of the students I had contact with had masks on. And just about every parent or guardian of a student who came in to the office today had masks on. I felt entirety comfortable working in my usual spot in the office, without the urge to shield myself further than the plexiglass and the double masking I have already been doing.

How long this will continue I don't know. But for now, I am hugely relieved.

I'd like to know why, keyboard manufacturers, you are unable to make a bluetooth, ergonomic keyboard WITHOUT the number pad.

 

The ergo keyboard I have at work has a detachable number pad (makes the overall size smaller) but is wireless and I don't have a USB hub or a dock at home, and I'm already using a dongle that has the one USB slot on it dedicated to my mouse.

Yes. My son was adding peppermint to a smoothie one morning, took a whiff of the extract and proclaimed that it really cleared his head. I did a little reading and decided these would be worth a try. It clears my head at least momentarily. I prefer not to take drugs -- even over the counter medications -- so this works for me.

 

Thanks. I buy papaya with peppermint in it for stomach issues. So we may have to try these.

Been really busy this month, working and installing security cam's on the side as a hobby for a friend of mine. Almost forgot to get my March post in.  Hope everyone has had a good march thus far and winter is officially over =( I may be one of the few, but I love fall and winter time and gonna miss it. Didnt really have a measurable snow fall here at all,  hopefully maybe next winter I will.

Oh...

So that's why I'm having a second dose of Evushield tomorrow. They increased the initial dose a week after my treatment. I didn't recall being told it was a two dose treatment initially.

From Seattle Cancer Care Alliance:

 

Evusheld

 

While vaccines play a critical role in keeping you safe, we recognize that some of you may not have a strong response to COVID-19 vaccination. If you meet the eligibility requirements listed below and supply is available, you may be able to receive Evusheld (tixagevimab and cilgavimab), a medication used to prevent COVID-19 infection before you are exposed to the virus.

 

Evusheld is not used to treat COVID-19 infection or for people with known exposure to COVID-19. Evusheld is not a replacement for COVID-19 vaccination. If you can safely get the COVID-19 vaccine and have not already, we encourage you to do so. If you are not sure if the vaccine is safe for you, please ask your care team.

 

Who is eligible for Evusheld?

 

Currently, there is a limited supply of Evusheld available. We are prioritizing our most immunocompromised patients based on National Institutes of Health guidelines, which include:

 

Active pre-transplant/HCT within one year, those with chronic GVHD or who are taking immunosuppressive medications for another indication.

CAR T cell recipients

Hematologic malignancy patients on active therapy

Patients who are within 1 year of receiving B-cell depleting therapies

Patients receiving Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors

Patients with severe combined immunodeficiencies

Lung transplant recipients

Patients who are within 1 year of receiving a solid-organ transplant (other than lung transplant)

Solid-organ transplant recipients with recent treatment for acute rejection with T or B cell depleting agents

Patients with untreated HIV who have a CD4 T lymphocyte cell count <50 cells/mm³

 

If you are eligible to receive Evusheld, your care team will discuss this with you at an upcoming appointment. If, after your conversation with your care team, you decide you want to take Evusheld, you’ll be added to a waitlist and contacted when it is your turn. We will re-evaluate eligibility criteria as supply allows and will keep you updated when more patients become eligible for this treatment.

 

Recent changes to Evusheld dose

 

On February 24, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) revised the emergency use authorization (EUA) for Evusheld to increase the initial dose.

The dose was revised based on information that shows a higher dose of Evusheld may be more likely to prevent infection by the COVID-19 Omicron subvariants.

If you already received an initial dose of Evusheld:

Your care team will contact you in the coming weeks, if they have not already done so, to schedule a second dose.

If you decline a second dose when it’s offered to you and later change your mind, you may contact your care team at any time and tell them you would like to be scheduled.
