Snot

[ChickWithBrains]

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.

Some how my co-workers and myself got into this topic. It was too early in the morning for this conversation, just before 6am. Well anyway one says her DH "sniffs and swallows", which I find disgusting. My other co-worker does a "farmers blow" same as snot rocket and I prefer the glove or if I remember I use a hankerchief.

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

But, I prefer your doc:

Earlier this year I had a string of ear and sinus infections and my doctor prescribed snot rockets (she is a cyclist too). Apparently all the sniffling caused that stuff to build up in my head and cause problems. So now its always snot rockets for me...doctors orders
