Here we go a-sniffling around the trees so green
Heh. Anyone else feeling my pain of allergy-induced misery? 
Ooooh, make it stop! Ragweed, goldenrod, pollen, mold. All around my house all you can hear is sniffling, sneezing, blowing, coughing and hacking of my very seasonally-allergic family. Make. It. Stop!
You know me, I sooooo don’t like cold weather but I cannot wait for that first hard freeze to bring some relief. Now is not the time to own a convertible because we can’t even enjoy these last remaining days of summer due to the seasonal ickiness.
On the upside, I’m getting a lot of writing done since I’m staying inside where the air is filtered. On the downside, my house is a wreck. I’m thinkin’ there should be allergy elves who come and clean to offset the misery they inflict. 
Who feels like cleaning when there’s a hippo sitting on your face? 
So, here’s a little prize offering for those of you suffering along with me (Heh. For those of you without allergies you are very welcome to enter–but I gotta tell, I think you’re lucky enough already. You can breathe! 
) I’ll even make it easy. I want you to go the closest window, look outside, and tell me what you see. Me? It’s golden-green fields of soybeans. Oh, and if you want to tell me what you’re reading right now, that’d be great, too.
(Please post your answers here on my website rather than on my Facebook page. Thanks!)

I feel your pain. I live on sinus/allergy meds lately. Wake up to feeling like my head will explode.

I have drug allergies, and I do suffer from time to time like Judy F with sinus and dust allergians. So I can feel your pain too…

Unfortunately, I can relate to having to deal with allergies. As for what’s outside my closest window, it’s late night, but I can see parked vehicles on both sides of the street and the houses across from me.

Well I have major allergies as well, so you’re not alone Kay. As for what I see out my window it’s usually an avocado tree but it late so its dark. I just finished Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks and I loved it.

I am another of your fellow sufferers. As far as what’s outside my closest window ~ do you count the pools of water from the 14″ of rain we had had in the last week? Or the branches that broke off trees from the strong winds that came with the rain and several parked cars or out the other window I see my car sitting in a puddle of water covered in leaves that blew off the trees~~ but out the same window I see the neighbor’s house. Both windows are equally close to me.

I believe I have some allergies but the Doctors have not been able to diagnose which; I get sore throats, phlegm dripping down the back of my throat, sinus pain, etc.
I see leaves changing color and falling off the trees, grass and some weeds.

I look out my window and see a funeral home across the street.
