Pollen-hate

I love the great outdoors. There is just something wonderful about being outside after spending the last 7 months stuck inside wearing my warm woolies. 


But sadly for about 2-3 weeks every spring I have to take the good with the bad. 


I am allergic to spring. 


All those lovely pollenating plants make me want to gouge out my itchy eyes with spoons while standing on the mountain of tissue I use each and every day. 


I NEVER had any allergies as a kid, they actually developed after my first year of university. 


How does this happen? I thought I had a nice clean break from developing anything that late in the game. 


Oh well. With my pockets stuffed with tissues I will go outside and I WILL enjoy the precious little warmth that we have here in the great white north. 


I may have red eyes and a snotty nose but at least I am happy and warm :)

  1. I found you via blogfrog. Another fellow Canadian here! I am B.C. looks you're in ON. Allergies suck big time I hear you on that. I am not sure if your breast feeding or not, I did. I was told by my doctor I could take Aerius. But, I'd check with yours before hand if you are BFing. I was looking for your birth story from the birth plan thread... I'd love to read it.
