Snot

I definitely found snot rockets gross but was amazed at how well they worked for DH and was annoyed all the time by my kleenexless self's constant sniffing and drip-catching. I'm a complete convert now. Just have to wait until you've got enough to rocket, and then let'er rip. Way less fumbling than tissues. I'll never go back.

I recently had surgery on my nose and asked my doctor when it was safe to start blowing my nose again. He said never.:eek: He says that he recommends the sniff and swallow approach. I'm having a really hard time as it's getting colder.:mad:

But, I prefer your doc:
