Pollen, schmollen!
What’s the big fat deal?
I’m hearing from almost everyone that I am soon to find out.
“Brace yourself,” said Dolly after she told me about the time she and her husband Matt left the windows open while they went to see a movie and came back to find it all over their beautiful floors.
“Oh, it’s a killer,” warned Mike.
Mike told my husband Derrick, who then told me, that this stuff comes down like gangbusters and even leaves a light dusting over cars.
Mike also said it wreaks pure havoc on anyone with allergies.
Is it really THAT bad?
Are these two embellishing their stories in an effort to prepare us for the worst, or do we need to take cover?
In Florida, it was the heat index and humidity, (which always seemed to hover around 100 percent,) that sent you on a quest to find central air conditioning.
In Michigan, it was the wind chill factor that could freeze your nose right off your face.
In Ohio, we worried about lake effect snow.
But this is new, and it’s beginning to sound serious.
So, how bad is this pollen plague? And when exactly is it coming?
(Exact dates, please!)
Sounds like I may need an umbrella, and a box of tissue.
Or better yet, a prescription for Claritin.
