Last Saturday in February
The almond tree is in full bloom - many things are starting to sprout and I tend to get a sinus headache on the side of my nose - the roof of my mouth itches - and my eyes water. Even my eye sockets are hurting! Things don't smell right or taste right. Down the road are these big yellow trees in full bloom. I think they might be Acacia trees which have always bothered me. Oh well - what can I do? Just deal with it like I have for almost 70 years. Actually, I didn't start getting hay fever until I was like in my 40's. I don't usually take allergy meds for this but if it gets in the way of my weekly activities, I just might. It's supposed to rain in a few days and that usually clears out the pollens.
Do you suffer from hay fever? How do you deal with it?
The kids left for their trip - I'm just so excited for them. We went over and fed Ed and Harry - didn't see Harry at all but Ed did come out to growl at us. He does that all the time - such a grump.
Meanwhile, gift cards and meals won't bring back their precious little boys, but it will help the families with any monetary needs they have.
Take Care and hug your family members!
