    I can't smell anything but that does not mean anything. I live where there is something blooming all of the time & right now everything outside is covered in yellow-green tree pollen. :arghh::arghh::facepalm::banghead:

    Consequently the nose system is totally screwed. :(:p:p

    It is mostly pine tree pollen & it gets worse as the days get warmer. You can see the pods up in the pine trees & when they start to open everyone in SC is praying for a full day of rain with high winds to shake it out of the trees & then wash it away.

    If that doesn't happen you can literally see clouds of the stuff in the distance if it is really dry or if you get a piddly amount of rain the gutters along the streets have streams of yellow water. :facepalm::facepalm::p

    Luckily it only lasts for about a month or so. :rolleyes:

    I guess I will be wearing my mask now outside to help with the allergies.

    They will have to pry my Zyrtec (generic Walgreens one) from my cold dead hands. Between that & Mucinex it is the only thing that keeps me going. :p:p:p

    I've also taken local unpasteurised honey, if you can find it.

    You can find it where I live, but it's not easy.
