Category: Spring Pollen Season 2017

Today, the pollen count is 8.0. Spring Pollen Season refuses to end. My sinuses have been burning and hurting for the past three or four days, and nothing I take does anything to change that.

The pollen count today is 7.8. I was able to stay inside today, and this allowed me to do a little bit of cleaning. Naturally, that resulted in my needing half a Benadryl – which led to a long nap.

Today’s pollen count is 8.4. I had to go outside today because my body decided now, after sixty-seven days of being overloaded with allergens, was the perfect time to start a hell-period. After several months of almost nothing at all – THIS is the moment my body decides to catch up (or whatever it is trying to do).

Today’s pollen count is 8.2. It seems to be bouncing between 7 and 8.6 or so. I’m hoping that this means that I won’t have to suffer through any more days where the pollen count is at 9 or 10 (at least, not during this particular pollen season).

Today, the pollen count is 7.6. I’m hoping this is a sign that Spring Pollen Season is coming to an end soon. I need the pollen to go below 6 for about two weeks – and then I will feel better.

Today, the pollen count is 8.3.

Today, the pollen count is 8. Not good.

I woke up sick because I did some dusting last night (in an effort to reduce indoor allergens.)

Look at that. LOOK AT THAT! The pollen count is a delightful 4.2!

Today’s pollen count is 8.4. It’s not ideal, but it could be worse, so I guess it will have to do.
