POLLEN IS BACK, HOORAY FOR THE YELLOW CRAP ON EVERYTHING!
Anybody notice since Monday that suddenly EVERYTHING is coated in yellow dust  . The cars are coated with it and it makes washing your car and keeping it nice for about 10 minutes impossible. For those of you who suffer during this season, do NOT drive with your windows open. Close them up and keep the A/C on low or risk having pollen rammed up your nose at highway speeds. If your car has a cabin filter, change it now.

I noticed it on Sunday. I washed the truck Saturday night, came out on Sunday morning, green dust everywhere.
Its extremely frustrating.

I was laughing at all the convertibles I saw around yesterday parked with their tops down. They didn't think about the pollen dust that would be covering the interior of the car as they sat there all day. Between mowing the lawn every couple of days and the pollen, who knows when I'll get back to normal breathing. The mountain bike ride yesterday was tough enough with the clogged up breathing, but the bike path along the canal was just a cloud of bugs as well. It looks like we're going back to normal temps which is good.

Thankfully it looks like those days of hard rain knocked a lot of the crap out of the Oak trees so my allergies are actually doing better than they did a week ago.

My allergies actually have been worse now that it stopped raining, those stupid Oak Beards are everywhere, the rain didn't wash them away at all.

Plus all the rain we've had is just going to make them bloom MORE, and this pollen season is just getting started. My son just cuts our lawn (we have 1/2 acre) and his nose is clogged for the rest of the day!
