Allergies... UGH!

The last few days I've been suffering. Sneezing. Watery eyes. The whole mess that comes with a high pollen count in the air. I was just reading an article in the Sacramento Bee that pretty much explains the reason for me and just about everyone I know to be sneezing, sniffling, crying and just being miserable. Today seems to be a bad one for me. My head feels like it wants to explode, and then I sneeze. Then comes a half a box of tissues to blow my nose, dry my eyes and try not to explode again. UGH! Yes, I'm taking pills. The over-the-counter ones, but they don't seem to help a whole lot. So, if I seem to be posting incoherent thoughts, please excuse me.. And if I've missed posting back to a comment, please excuse me. It's hard to think straight in the middle of a sneezing fit...

According to the article in the Bee, we're having extremely high pollen counts this year. Plus we've had a lot of windy days which, naturally, stirs up the pollen and makes everyone miserable. Even animals are having problems this year according to that article. I can hardly wait for "allergy season" to be over...

Hi Newbiee! Allergies are a definite pain. I've had them for most of my life and as aggravated as I get, I know its just something I have to "live" with.. lol.. At least the rain here yesterday got some of the pollen out of the air.. I can actually breathe this afternoon!
