Usually around the middle of November, as winter takes hold, the air becomes so dry that I have to keep a bottle of water beside my bed to guzzle in the middle of the night to prevent my sinuses from drying out so I can breathe properly. The Battle To Breathe began already last week, the first week of September! Unbelievable! I have been awake this morning since about 3:30am in great discomfort, sneaking downstairs as quietly as possible to get my water bottle. Now I am breathing more easily, but the slight dehydration headache is still keeping me awake. Although there is no snow or freezing rain forecast during this week of high daytime temperatures, it seems my own personal winter season may have already started. Dang it! Fortunately it does appear that we will have some rain later this week, so that should help. Assuming we make it to the coast next month I can look forward to being able to breathe properly for a full ten days. At that time of year it will probably be raining every day so the humidity will be very high. I am SO looking forward to that added travel bonus!
