Yep, I’m allergic to Spring. Yes, it’s possible. Pretty much for the whole season, I’m stuffy, sneezy and itchy. Somehow it seems that Spring sprang this past weekend. It all hit me so fast that I thought I was on my way to another sinus infection. Ugh!
We had two beautiful and hot days in a row – that’s what probably did it. That’s when we found out our air conditioning needed repair. It’s not a good time to find that out. You see, I must take cover immediately when the pollen decides to come out and play. I must be inside and with filtered air. If not, a sinus infection is my punishment.
Yes, I’m one of “those” people who hibernate in Spring. It’s kind of sad really, I’d like to be outside with Baby E, letting him explore the outdoors and play with bubbles or riding toys. But, I can’t… not unless he wants a Mama that will be cranky, stuffy and pretty darn sick for several days.
So, I’m sorry I’ve been missing. I’ve been seriously nursing this ick. I can breathe without sniffling and it didn’t require a doctor visit. Yay! I’ve got those Zyrtec-D’s on a every 12 hour cycle until the pollen subsides. Whew! I count myself lucky this time. Oh! And our air conditioning is fixed!! Thank you to the awesome guy that came and fixed it!
One another note, here’s some tulips from my front flower box. Aren’t they pretty? I’m not ready for them to die off just yet.
I hope Spring is going well for you!
Hi Manda! Those tulips sure are pretty! Wish you could get outside and enjoy the spring! Have you ever tried all natural Quercitin.. it’s found in apple peels and green tea and other foods but you can get it in a pill at the health food store. Instead of counteracting histamines like Claritan and Zyrtec do… it prevents the histamines from ever releasing into your body. Preventative instead of reactive. Not sure this would work for you but maybe it would. Best wishes and I hope you feel better soon and that this awful pollen would just be gone already!
I’ve never heard of Quercitin. Thanks! I’ll have to look into it!
